To backstitch without repeatedly flipping the fabric, insert the needle into the seam one stitch length behind the current position and guide it to exit one stitch length forward.

The working thread should lie in the middle of the needle's entry and exit points.

Pull the thread through to secure the stitch.

This method is quicker but more prone to tangling on the backside. Periodically check that the thread is pulling through smoothly.
