Running Stitch or Straight Stitch

 

The Running Stitch is the most common stitch used in hand sewing.

Bring the needle up at A, and go back down at B.

Next come back up at C and go back down at D so that the

 stitches and the space between them are of the same length.

Continue the stitch in same pattern.

Straight stitch looks the same on the face and back of the fabric.
