The main stitch used is the straight stitch. You will do the majority of sewing with this one. The zig-zag is probably the next most-used one. With a few exceptions, most of the rest of the stitches are more for decorating. Don't be fooled by the "eye candy" on some of the new machines. If you are not a hard-core sewing enthusiast, a simple machine that offers straight, zig-zag, and reverse, is a great starting point.
