Here's how you sew Straight Stitch.
Insert the needle from the back of the fabric.
Push the needle in & out of the fabric in equal distance.
Pull out the needle.
Push the needle in & out of the fabric again.
Then pull out the needle and you have your straight stitch or running stitch.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I use straight stitch mainly on projects where I need to pull and tie the threads together to obtain gathers on the fabrics.
Some of my projects that make great use of straight stitches include:-
Felt Sweetheart cakes - strawberry, blueberry and raspberry.
