A zig-zag sewing machine is a specialized type of sewing machine that allows you to create intricate zig-zag patterns with ease. Unlike traditional straight stitch machines, zig-zag machines have a unique mechanism that enables the needle to move from side to side while stitching. This versatile stitching style opens up a world of possibilities, especially when it comes to embellishments such as pico falls.
