Running Stitch

Running stitch is very simple and is used in many of our projects . You can use this stitch to do hand quilting and basting. That's why it also called quilting stitch and basting stitch.
Let's show you how to sew it. I will demonstrate with the embroidery thread. The thread is thick so the stitches will show up better for you. 


 1. Thread your needle and knot the thread before start to stitch. Always make sure your thread is one side longer than the other side. The knot will be at the longer side.



 2. Begin the stitch by poking your threaded needle up through the fabric.


 3. The knot will be at the wrong side of fabric.


 4. Poke the needle down through the fabric next to where you just came up, and pull the thread to the wrong side of fabric.
The stitch's width is depend to you or the project. It can be around 2mm to 5mm. The seam will be strong if the width is narrow.

 5. Make sure your thread is always one side longer than the other side while sewing. You are sewing with the longer side of thread.



6. Now poke your needle up through the fabric, leaving a space from the previous stitch. To get a strong and tiny seam,the width of the space should same with the width of your stitch.


 7. Then poke the needle down through the fabric again making your second stitch. This graphic shows loading up my stitches, I can normally get 3 -4 stitches on at once. You also can try it. It works fast.



 8. Now just continue this and you are on your way! See how easy this stitch is?
What to do after finished sewing? Finishing with a knot!

9. This graphic shows the stitches at the wrong side of fabric.
