Take the first of the 7 basic sewing stitches featured in this handy guide: the Back Stitch or backstitch. In this guide of basic sewing stitches, you’ll learn: “Back Stitch or backstitch is one of the strongest stitches you can hand sew. It creates a nice, permanent seam and is relatively simple to master. To do the back stitch, bring your needle up through the fabric about a stitch’s length away from where the seam starts, then down again at the beginning point of the seam. Next, come up again with your needle a stitch’s length away from the last stitch, then go down at the end of the last stitch. This motion is what gives the back stitch its appropriate name—you need to go ‘back’ to the previous stitch in order to execute it.” The Back Stitch or Backstitch: [How to Sew on a Button]( And with [7 Basic Stitches Every Sewist Needs to Know]( you get descriptions, instructions, and visuals of how to execute all the 7 basic sewing stitches: - Back Stitch or backstitch - Blanket Stitch - Blind Hem Stitch - Catch Stitch - Ladder Stitch - Running Stitch - Whip Stitch Perhaps you know some—or all—of these basic sewing stitches, but you should get this FREE printable guide now, to reinforce your learning and regularly remind you of how to perfectly execute every one of these 7 basic sewing stitches!
