Topstitching

Topstitching is usually done to add a professional and finished look to garments, but it can also be used
to hold layers of fabric in place and prevent facings from shifting while being worn. Topstitching is always
done on the right side (or “top” side of the garment) because tension differences will often cause the
stitches on the top to be of better quality. The only difference between topstitching and edge stitching is
that edge stitching is specifically near the edge of the garment.
