To sew a gathering stitch, first, set your sewing machine to a long stitch length (usually between 4-5). Next, sew two parallel lines of stitches along the edge of the fabric where you want the gathering, keeping about 1/4 inch and 1/2 inch from the edge. After sewing, gently pull the threads of the outer stitch lines to gather the fabric, adjusting the fabric to achieve the desired ruffle. Finally, secure the gathers by tying off the threads or sewing over them.
