How to make a
Straight stitch

I would even go so far as to state that it is the most used stitch in any form of sewing and therefore needs to be acknowledged.
Next time you run into the name ‘straight stitch’ you will know this is it. It can be long or short, pulled tight or sit loosely but straight it will always stay!
