Hand stitching is such a dying practical and survival skill, it shouldn't be shameful that even men should learn it. I'm trying to learn a variety of stitching methods because as of lately I've been repairing individual utility holders, such as belt pouches for things like knives, sharpening stones, etc. This is the first really nice AND practical stitch I've found. I'll have to try it as the latter of my utility pouches needs to be restitched. Thank you for such a great instructional video.

Ah, no lol
+Smita Kundu no lol
My wife said "do it yourself!" So I've bought thread, needles and a thimble...I don't need her stuff, and I don't need her bloody help!! :-) I'm 47-years old and have not sewn since school. About time I learned really :-)
I cant wait to see her changing her brake-pads the mad cow! Thanks Tammy...brilliant video!
That traffic cone plushie is the most adorable thing I have seen xD
+RocketTown Crafts i agree! so cute!
I wouldn't be surprised if you hear this a lot, but you have a really comforting voice. I also really appreciate how clear and unfettered your instructions are. Thank you!
I accidentally learned the blanket stitch while doing my own projects, but this made it a lot more clear for me. Excellent video!
I'm a beginner and learning to create things for my home. This video has helped so much and such an easy technique to master! I've managed to make my own Christmas tree decorations this year because of it.
I like how you are very clear-to the point, showing up close and just clear about how to do this. Thank you.
Just did 3 hours of blanket stitching around some viking re-enactment gear thanks to this vid. Looks awesome and I learnt it by 2:15

I love blanket stitching! When I first started sewing, I was experimenting with a bunch of different homemade types of stitches and thought I came up with this and it was so easy.. but then I realized it had already existed haha!
Thanks for your great Tutorial, it helped me solve the problem of frayed hems on a favourite t-shirt, which is now fit to wear again!
This was exactly what I was searching for to show me how to do the blanket stitch to turn a wool blanket into a poncho for Scouts. Thank you.
I haven't done embroidery for years. This was an excellent tutorial to get be back in the groove. Thank you!
Thank you Tammy for your clear and concise demonstration. I had completely forgotten the finer points. Knew what it looked like but couldn’t remember how! Thank you again. Joclyn T.
Tammy, I want to thank you so much for showing me the actual correct way of doing it. You did an excellent job, and I saved you in my Pinterest, UA-cam, and on my Facebook page. PLEASE ignore the idiots out there, they feel bad about themselves so they have to put everyone down to make them feel better. Thank you for letting me subscribe to your page.
excellent demonstration, made it very clear amd easy to follow, thank you
So very, very helpful. Thank you so much. I keep watching how to start the blanket stitch as I forget from time to time, and it is a great reminder. :)
Thank you so much for this! I was just making a tea cozy for my mom and had no idea how to do this stitch... the best tip was that the first stitch is straight and then you loop through for the rest... Thank you again!!
You're so kind. Thank you for posting this video. It's really help me. I've been wandering how to stitch the felt rightly.
Thank you for your help I wasn't sure what a blanket stitch looked like or how to start seeing it. I just learned my 1st lesson again thank you.
This is really well done. I'm actually using this stitch as a base at the bottom of some blouses upon which I will crochet edging. This open up the opportunity to make some much needed changes to my wardrobe. Thanks!
Thank you! I have to make a quilt block, and sew the outsides with the blanket stitch. This was so helpful!
i tried looking at non video tutoials and was so confused, the way you did the stich is siple and faster than what I found thanks a lot.
What a clear, easy to see demonstration--and you have a lovely voice, too.
Okay, a few dumb questions from a guy... what happens if I ran out of thread. Should I start with a new thread or do I join two threads together? I tried a very long thread but they get tangled up in a mess. I'm making a pencil case for my daughter out of thin suede leather, I've seen this type of stitch being used for such construction. Thank you.
another question just popped in my mind, what do I do when I arrive at a corner. Sorry for so many questions.
I'm not an expert. As far as
I know : secure the first thread when it's ended and start new with the 2nd thread. With this stitch, in the corner you can do diagonal stitch for the corner but I can't explain it well
secure the first thread and then start your second thread fresh. don't try to tie them together. Trying to tie them together will be a) a pain in the butt for no reason and b) will decrease the strength of the stitch. Hope that helps. :)
Stop and tie it as you would normally and thread another needle starting where you ended the last stitch.
Awww you got me at the part when you're trying to do a pencil case for your daughter
I'm about to make a dress using felt cloth for my daughter's Poppy costume. I have a lot of sewing to do. Thank you for the clear tutorial!
I am going to make my favorite teacher a hand sewn blanket for Christmas, this helped a lot! Thanks!
Thank you! I'm working on an embroidery project and wanted to use this type of stitch but the text directions were difficult. This made it super easy for me to learn!
Thank you for it. I have a learning disability and slowing down made it easier for to understand. I can not wait until I make my first plushie with that stitch. Thank you again.
thank you so much this helped me alot in my project.... first I didn't know I tried searching but on the previous vids i couldn't understand until I came across your video it helped me so big thanks
Lol this is basi ~same here😂🤣

Jordan Tassone um TF?
I love your potato picture 🥔

Thank you for this video. Total novice sewer here, and this was so easy to follow!
Thank you so much! This is a very helpful video :) I needed to learn how to do a blanket stitch since I have a project that I need to be able to sew buttonholes on, and the buttonhole tutorial I looked at recommended using very close blanket stitching.
+Alisha C I TOTALLY AGREE!!
This tutorial was very clear and easy to understand. I'm using this stitch for the first time to make round felt coasters. Instead of putting the needle in the loop once I'm doing it twice to make a knot before I start the next stitch.
Tabascopeppers I need to make a doll for school and I thought this would be cute stitching for it
omg same, im making coasters too! for school...

Thanks Tammy. Your video was easy to follow & clear - best of the ones I checked out on UA-cam.
Wouldn't have been able to finish a school project without this. Thanks a lot!
This video is great because I have watched some of your other videos and I have wondered how you hand sewn your felt plushy projects now that I have watched your video it has made a lot more sense._. Thx
hi, I found your video while looking for how to start a blanket stitch when not doing it on linen. I've done the blanket stitch in Hardanger embroidery for over 20 years, but it is started and finished differently than when actually doing something like a blanket. You actually are making this stitch harder to do than it really is. When you poke your needle in the material, while the needle is sticking out the back side, you take the thread or floss in my case, and you wrap it once around that point on the needle. Then pull your thread tight. Now you've made one stitch. The way you are doing it you have to make sure you don't accidentally pull the tread tight before you weave the needle through your small loop, just before you then pull it tight.
You hold yours totally different too. I hold my material upright and you seem to hold it sideways. this stitch can be even easier than you've made it.
Thank you so much for this video!! Thank you for assuming absolutely 0 knowledge and explaining every step. You really made things so clear and my project is turning out great now!
Thank you for this tutorial, this has been very helpful to me as I am making dolls.
Keep up the great work x
Very useful! I plan to start making my first felt decorations for Christmas, and this tutorial really helps me as I like the finish of this stitch better. As the previous comment, I'm curious to know how you go around corners!
I've been wanting to do this stitch ever since I saw how pretty it was :) but I didn't know how until I saw this tutorial. Thanks!
Your voice is so cute!

IK! IDK WHY!!!! :0
Weirdo XD
I found this video very helpful, especially when starting and ending the stitch. Thanks!
I'm a 23 year old man and this made the most sense to me and I thank you for this video!
This is wayy more-easy to understand then your othertutorial on how to blanket stich!! I love your plushies btw, your amazing!!
Thank you for this video! I’m making sacks for reenactment bags and now I know how to do it!
Thank you so much! I've done this before I had just forgotten how. And every picture tutorial got me all backwards for some reason. Thanks for this. :)
Thanks a bunch! Excellent how-to video. Hemmed a poncho for my daughter with your help.
This tutorial was really great and really helpful! Could you please consider doing a tutorial for the ladder stitch? I watched a few others, but I'm still really confused...
Your voice is so adorable, thank you for the clear explanation! Nice easy understanding video :)
This was very helpful! You did such a good job making this video, Its very easy to understand!
So that's you do it. I always cut the thread (carefully without messing up the plush) after I'd finished sewing. Now I know what to do. Thanks Tammy-sempai *hugs*
Hi there, thank you for this video!! I am teaching my Grade 11 class how to hand stitch and this video was perfect for the blanket stitch! I'm finding it very hard to find an HD/high quality video with a close up view of the stitches I am teaching. It would be wonderful if you posted more hand stitching videos! (ex. running, back, slip, overcast, catch stitches) :):)
Thank you for this very helpful tutorial - it is really clear and I can now do blanket stitch!
Thank you. I am sewing a grasshopper wing costume piece and I followed your tutorial.
thank you for these clear directions. I'm crocheting towel toppers but need to make a hem using the blanket stitch because the fabric unravels. Then I'm able to crochet using the blanket stitch as the first crochet row!! Problem solved!!
Thank you for helping me learn! I like hand sewing and this tip will help me a lot😄
Now that I watch it after several failed attempts, I can see how to start the first stitch. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
I really like your voice too.
Very lovely tutorial and I just can't get enough of your beautiful voice! :3
I am teaching a class of nine-year-olds how to do this stitch. The video will be a great help.
Thank you so much! i'm ready to start stitching felt toys!!! Is there anything else i should do if i would continue to stitch after the corner, or in a circular move???
Very simple and useful information to begin home ec class. Thank you.
Thank you for the detail in your video...my stitch looks great!
Super helpful video! Really appreciate it!! Thanks so much uber happy with my blanket stich!!
thank you sooo much...you just got me out of a major scolding from my mom...
Thank You so much! I learned this so long ago I had forgotten and I needed it to complete my project!
Thanks. This helped me. Now I can actually do something in tech class.
It's a lot easier the way she explained it I asked my sis to so me and she confused me but this didn't 😱thanks🙊🎊🙉🎉👌👍
Thank you so much for this - I had been struggling to figure out how to do this for a good while before I had the sense to look up a tutorial, and this was wonderful. Thank you! Your plushies are also adorable! :D Keep up the great work!
Wow! What you did at the beginning was genius!!
Thank you very much for the tutorial :) I wanted to learn so I could make some cutesy accessories but now that I saw you make plushies with such a simple method, I'm feeling a bit more daring. Bought a bit of material online to fiddle around.
Thank you so much i was looking for a video like this for 25 min and FINALLY i found you thanks.
Thank you so much! In your videos you say "use the blanket stitch" and I was like O O.I didn't know how at first so I looked it up and it was confusing.When I saw this video I was like YES!!!!!!!
thank you for a very clear explanation Tammy
Thank you! Very simply demonstrated! Do you have a chain stitch tutorial as well?
Linda Brush yeah
I know this video is 6 years old but still, very helpful! Thanks for putting it out there!
Great idea about hiding the know on the thread inside the fabric. Thanks.
Great video, even for this left-hander!! Could you please show how to end and begin when you run out of thread in the blanket stitch??? THANKS!!
Thank you for an awesome tutorial. I was wondering... what type of felt do you use? Is there a name brand for it. I want to start making felt food but have no clue as to what type of felt to use. Thank you
Thank you for this! It was very easy & straight forward!
thank so much. I have a project due for tomorrow. your a life saver.

Blanket stitches are so elegant
Thank you for the instruction. Could you please show us how to turn the corner? I am wanting to try to make a pillow cover with the blanket stitch and am a bit confused about turning the corner. Thanks!
First video I’ve seen that was so clear to understand. I haven’t figured out what to do when I run out of thread. How do you do the first stitch again without leaving a space. Help :0).
You did a great job teaching. Thanks
Thank you..My TLE teacher is high blood and i didn't want to ask her how to do the stitch so i made it myself..:D
Haha yes that makes sense! I just figured out one day that doing two knots wasn't necessary. XD I have been doing it this way ever since! ^^
