Coverstitch

Cover stitch is a professional hemming and seam-finishing technique commonly used in high-stretch and performance garments, delivering a clean, flexible, and durable finish that moves naturally with the body. At Megaya Bali, cover stitching is executed with precision to reinforce hems, secure stretch seams, and provide a polished, retail-ready appearance—making it a must-have for activewear, swimwear, athleisure, and premium knit garments.

A cover stitch creates two or more parallel rows of stitching on the outside while forming a secure serged-like loop on the inside. This structure allows the seam to stretch without breaking, prevents rolling or warping, and maintains the garment’s shape through movement and repeated washing. It is especially important for hems, sleeve openings, waistbands, binding edges, and any part of a garment that requires both durability and stretch recovery.

Megaya Bali performs cover stitching according to your tech pack instructions, including stitch width, thread type, tension, and placement. While we do not create tech packs, our team ensures every cover stitch detail is applied exactly as specified—delivering consistent quality and a smooth, professional finish across samples and bulk production.
