Backstitch is a sewing technique that involves creating small in-out stitches in order to tightly join two material pieces together. This technique gives resilience and avoids the material from unraveling. The whipstitch may be used for a variety of stitching projects, such as sewing the hem, sewing patches, or even making coverlets. It provides a neat and skilled look to the finished item.
