1. 

   

   You will need...
   Thread
   1 Needle
   Some material
   A smile on your face :)
   (this coulld probably be done without the smile, but lets be optimistic)

2. 

   

   Cut yourself some thread, thread your needle and tie a little knot at one end of the thread




3. 

   

   sew through one side of the fabric..
   
   <-- like that

4. 

   

   Do that again




5. 

   

   Now, before you pull tight, pull the needle through the loop.
   you might want to look at the picture cos this is quite hard to explain

6. 

   

   Pull tight. The first one always looks a bit odd, but the rest will be ok i promise

7. 

   

   Sew through the fabric again

8. 

   

   now pull the needle through the loop again

9. 

   

   Pull tight

10. 

    

    Voila! now the trick to even stitching is to make sure you have even depth and width between your stitches...
    
    I hope this helps anyone looking at how to blanket stitch!! xx
