However, this <\/span><span lang=\"en-GB\"><b>hand sewing <\/b><\/span><span lang=\"en-GB\">technique is sometimes necessary to achieve a better result after sewing the basted section on the machine. Use a special basting thread which can be easily found in haberdashery shops and is very easy to remove.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">3.<strong> Sewing needle types<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span lang=\"en-GB\">One of our most important tips is that you use the <\/span><\/span><strong><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span lang=\"en-GB\">correct sewing needle<\/span><\/span><\/strong> <span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span lang=\"en-GB\">for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.katia.com\/EN\/fabrics.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">type of fabric<\/a> you are going to sew.
