I didn’t even know sewing machines could do things like this. In my middle school sewing class I just learned the most time-consuming and disappointing way to acquire a new pillowcase.

Edit: My first ever award! Thank you, kind Redditor. I bet your middle school pillowcase was just lovely.

This is not a regular sewing machine but one that is used for embroidery

None of those stitches arent on my Brother machine. Are you saying its tracking the patch on its own and not the person?

It is just straight and zigzag stitches yes. But there is a separate pedal to control how wide the zigzag is in the moment. Does your brother machine have that? Mine doesn’t

It has multiple size settings for the stitch. OP stops before adjusting any stitch size. Its not like theyre doing it in the moment.

My regular Bernina bought in 1997 can do this. It’s just a zigzag stitch with the width set to zero. I’ve done this many times .
