    I must practice this, my stitches wind up looking like the whip stitch. Thank you.

    This looks like the blind stitch that I do on my binding. So easy to do.

    :-DI actually enjoy this process :D
    That's too funny. I used to use that all the time in my apparel sewing. Guess I forgot about it. Need to pull that out of the old memory bank for when I need to hand sew something. With my arthritis I don't do any more hand sewing than I have to.

    I've used this stitch "Ladder
    Stitch" for years when applying binding, but didn't know what it was called. My tip for this binding stitch is to use a needle that is just the proper length of the stitch you are making. If you use a longer needle the stitch is more difficult to control.

    Go to what home page? What site are you going to?
    If you are on the "tute" page, the url address is in the address bar when you are viewing the tutorial. Let us know the Home page. Thanks

    My 7th grade Home Ec teacher (40+ yrs ago) called it a bind hem stitch. Altthough, no longer sewing garmets, it is ideal for binding.

    Hmmmm...... That is the only way I know how to do it.

    To those of you to whom this is new - what method did you use before?
