Thank you so much. I have forgotten how to do that stitch, and my granddaughter asked me to teach her how to make an invisible stitch. You saved my name and honor as a grandmother, that should know how to do it.

Used this to fix my 7-year-old's stuffie. He said "Wow Daddy, you are really good at sewing!" Single dads for the win.

Just gave me massive Dad points when I did surgery to save my daughter's babydoll

You can tell she does a lot of hand sewing by the way she ties the knot in the very beginning. It was so smooth and simple. A great way for people with large clumsy hands or joint problems

omg thank you so much, my ADHD doesn't have tolerance for listening to someone's 24 second youtube intro and 10 minute prologue

Perfect, simple explanation. Just what I needed. Thank you.

Oh my God, I cannot thank you enough for this video! I've tried for years to figure out how this was done! In crochet and knitting we use almost the same type of stitch but it's called the mattress stitch. I can't believe I didn't put the two together and realize it would be used this way in hand sewing. What a DUH moment for me! Again, thanks a million for the video!

This is a hell of a lot more helpful than the 5-minute crafts!!😁

I was able to mend some of my clothes with this stitch, didn't do it as perfectly as you did but they now look great to the untrained eyes of mine xD thank you so much!

[ebonijohnson]

I have a beloved quilt that is tearing. I kept searching "inverted stitch" and I finally came upon this video. I'm a bit clumsy, but I'm not ready to retire the quilt, so I'm hand-repairing it. Wish me luck

I love your no-nonsense style of presentation. Clear and concise.

I'm about to fix a pillow and found your video! Great explanation and calming voice. My husband watched too and agreed! Thank you for your help!
