Stitch in the Ditch is really a misnomer. As we generally press seasm to one side, getting the stitching in that seam is extremely difficult. So it goes on the "low"side of the seam - the one that doesn't have the seam allowances. Your stitches should "butt up" to the seam, but not stitch on the side with the seam allowances. You will see that immediately and it will look like topstitching. It does take some practice, and I find it's easier to stitich about 1/4" away from the seam.
