I have an Elna sewing machine with discs that are inserted and they produce fancy stitches, one a small blanket stitch. So, thank you very much everyone! After many years of using this sewing machine to make clothing and repair many pairs of jeans, I finally used one of the discs! The project looks great! I surprised myself.

Next step is to figure out how to get my pictures from the camera site to here! :lol:
