I use the edge stitcher (used to do top stitching and also the invisible hemming stitch) and move the needle one position. This way I am edge stitching just off of the seam. I, too , like the look.
I've also used a "wobbly" stitch -- zigzag set at the very least width. Then I can follow the seam and it wibble wobbles and looks great especially after washing and drying.
