Best Answer

A cover stitch is usually hemming tee shirts and stretchy fabric. Two lines of straight stitching are on the right side, and looping threads on the wrong side. This lets the fabric stretch without bursting the stitches. The knife is disabled so that the fabric is not cut.

Why does a tailor use a sewing machine to stitch clothes?

A tailor may use a sewing machine for a few reasons. It saves time, as a sewing machine sews much more quickly than hand sewing. Also, a sewing machine makes interlocking stitches, making the stitch tighter and more durable. Lastly, a sewing machine offers more options for sewing - stitch length, width, zig-zags, etc. - that either can't be done by hand, or would be very difficult to do.
