Make a diagonal stitch

Insert the needle into the patch diagonally, 1/4 inch (~6 mm) inward from the edge and 1/4 inch (~6 mm) forward in the direction of the stitch path.
The distance inward from the patch edge defines the height of the stitch and the distance forward along the stitch line defines the width of the stitch. Alter these dimensions to suit different repairs but keep them consistent throughout the repair.
Pull the needle and thread through to the back. Don't pull the thread tight, leaving a small loop.
