How to Sew a Running Stitch

  • Step 1Push the needle up from the back of the material and pull the thread.
  • Step 2Push the needle into the material a little way away. Pull the needle down behind the material until the thread is tight. This makes a straight stitch.
  • Step 3Push the needle up from the back again, a little way away from the first stitch. Then, push it down again to make another stitch.
  • Step 4Keep on stitching in this way to make a line of stitches.
  • Step 5To finish sewing, push the needle through the last stitch and pull the thread. Then, stitch through the thread once more and cut off the loose ends.
