The blanket stitch not only makes a decorative edge for your sewing projects, but can also be used to sew two pieces of fabric or felt together.

1. Secure your thread in the project you wish to sew. Then come up with your needle from underneath and insert it about 1/4 inch from the edge in the direction you are working and the interval you wish to use. Here the interval between the stiches is about 5-7 mm.

4. Pull the thread tighter...
