Backstitch represents a sewing technique that involves creating small in-out stitches in order to firmly connect two fabric pieces together. This approach adds durability and prevents the fabric from coming apart. The overcast may be used for a range of sewing projects, including finishing the edge, sewing appliques, or even creating blankets. It gives a clean and expert look for the completed piece.
