whipstitched
Stitched over edges
Whipstitched describes something sewn with whipstitches—a simple technique where thread loops over the edge of fabric in diagonal stitches.
The method joins pieces or finishes raw edges: a whipstitched leather journal, whipstitched seams on the moccasins.
The term appears in crafts, bookbinding, and leatherwork.
