Running vs. Hidden Stitch
In a basic running stitch, the stitching will be even on both sides of
the fabric.
To hide the stitches so that they are not seen on the outside of the project, make
a longer stitch on the back of the project and a very small stitch on the front of the
project. This method is called a “hidden stitch.”

Tip:
As you sew, flip your fabric over every so often to make sure the conductive
thread isn’t getting knotted or tangled. If you are just starting out with sewing,
your stitching may take some practice before it feels comfortable or easy.
Remember to be patient with yourself and take your time while stitching. If your
thread breaks, you can stitch onto existing conductive thread to continue the
electrical connection.
