Backstitch is used in sewing to make the seams stronger and more durable. My grandmother taught me to always use a backstitch at the beginning and end of a seam.
Pro Tip 2/3
Precision Needed
Accurate backstitching ensures the fabric pieces align correctly and don't come apart. I had to undo the seam because my backstitch was off, causing a pucker.
Pro Tip 3/3
Not Invisible
Unlike some sewing techniques, backstitches can be seen on the fabric, forming a pattern. The pillow's design featured a prominent backstitch that added a decorative touch.
