5. Basting stitch is quite important in successful sewing.
This is used to hold fabric temporarily in place, until
permanently stitched.
There are four types of basting: hand basting,
machine basting, pin basting, and basting edges with an
iron.
All basting is done with a single strand of thread.
Often the thread is of a highly contrasting color to the
surface. This provides an easy visibility, since basting is
always removed before the garment is given the final
press.

7. • a simple needlework stitch consisting of a line
of small even stitches that run in and out
through the cloth without overlapping.
• To make this stitch, push point of needle in
and out of the fabric until you have several
stitches on the needle. Hold the fabric taut
with left hand, pull the needle through.
Practice until you make fine stitches.

9. • the strongest hand stitch and is
used to imitate machine stitches
• Make one running stitch, then
take a back stitch to the beginning
of the first stitch, thus overlapping
each running stitch.

11. • This is similar to the back stitch
but it is slanted. Make one slanted
backstitch in front of another
letting each one overlaps the one
it just a little bit, until the design is
filled.

14. • a buttonhole stitch used on the
edges of a blanket or other
material too thick to be
hemmed.

16. • Also called herringbone stitch.
• This is used for a flat finish next to
fabric, such as seam binding on a
hem. Hold open hem edge away
from you, work from left to right.
Take a stitch in the hem, then a tiny
stitch to the right just beyond edge
of hem with the point of needle to
the left. This makes diagonal lined
that cross each other.

18. • an ornamental stitch in which loops
are crocheted or embroidered in a
chain.
• Insert the needle in and out of the
fabric (as in running stitch). Bring
the thread under the tip of the
needle while still in the fabric, then
pull the thread through,
