Although it can be used to sew the sides of loose skirts, pants, and blouses.&nbsp; A running stitch that is done at 1 to 2mm in length is a reasonable stitch to sew a silk blouse, thin linen, or to attach a trim where more than one row of stitches is necessary.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are using the running stitch for basting, a 4 to 5mm length is best used.&nbsp; This stitch is very useful to keep things together until a stronger stitch can be used or to make ruffles.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"text-transform:capitalize\">How to make the Running Stitch<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Mark the seam allowance with <a href=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/l\/tailors-chalk\" title=\"Tailor&#039;s Chalk\" class=\"pretty-link-keyword\">tailor's chalk<\/a> or erasable pen.&nbsp; Use pins along the seam allowance to keep the fabric from moving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I will show you how to make an anchor stitch, however, making a knot is perfectly fine.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" data-src=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_1419-2.jpeg\" alt=\"hand-sewing stitches\" class=\"wp-image-67180 lazyload\" title=\"hand sewing stitches\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_1419-2.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_1419-2-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_1419-2-500x375.jpeg 500w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_1419-2-150x113.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_1419-2-250x188.jpeg 250w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 600px;
