Learning how to sew a few simple stitches is a valuable life skill you can teach your kids. Once kids know how to sew, they can take on a whole range of fun kids' craft projects that will improve their fine motor skills and cognitive thinking.
1. Running stitch
A running stitch is the most basic in-and-out even stitch. It is used for gathering, hand darning and fine seaming and tucking.
Secure the thread either with a knot or a backstitch. Bring the needle up through the fabric. Insert the needle through the fabric to make a 5mm stitch. Now come from the back through to the front, 5mm along. Make another stitch along the top of the fabric. That’s it.
Notice that if you pull on the thread the fabric gathers together.
2. Backstitch
A backstitch is a very strong secure stitch that can be used at the beginning of your stitching to secure your thread instead of knot.
Stitches are even and evenly spaced along the top of the fabric. On the underside they overlap and form a chain-like look.
Begin by securing the thread. Bring the needle through to the right side of the fabric. Make a 5mm stitch from front to back. Now with your needle at the back of the fabric, bring it back through to the right side, leaving a 5mm gap along the front of the fabric.
Now stitch backwards, meet up with the end of the last stitch to form two even stitches, placed side by side.
Keep going like that. Backstitching is a good basic stitch when you’re sewing along edges.
