    • Thread your needle and tie a knot in the end of the thread.

    • Drive the needle through the back of the bottom material.

    • Pull the thread taut.

    • Drive the needle down through both layers of material, coming out on the back side of the bottom material. Push the needle out of the material.

    • The closer you drive the needle in to where the thread came up, the smaller the stitch length. Having a smaller stitch length requires more stitches, but creates a stronger seam.

    • Pull the thread taut.

    • Continue sewing through both layers, going down from the top and up from the bottom, as described in steps 3 and 4 of this guide.

    • When you come to the end of your material, draw the needle in between the two layers of material, under the thread of the closest stitch.

    • Slowly start to pull the thread taut. As you pull a loop will form.

    • Draw the needle through the loop and pull the thread taut.

    • Repeat the process of drawing the needle between the layers, creating a loop, and drawing the needle through the loop as described in this step.
