In this tutorial we will demonstrate how to close the bottom of a project (pictured here is our sunglasses case) with a whip stitch. This is a very simple way to close one side of a project.

1. Fold the tube in half. I placed two hooks in the first two stitches to help you see the method a little better. We will work in the stitches facing you and the ones directly behind them.
