If you don’t leave enough thread on the needle, it might be difficult to make the loop. To make it easier, tie more thread to the end of the thread on your needle. Then, slide the needle onto the extended thread.
If you pull the thread up at this point, you should see 3 small threads at the base of your knot.
Remember that these knots won’t be visible on the right side of your fabric.
Don’t worry if you trim close to the knot; as long as you pulled the knot tight, it won’t loosen over time. [6] X Expert Source Andrea BeaulieuProfessional Tailor & Fashion Designer Expert Interview. 1 May 2020.
If you’re not used to sewing and ending stitches on a machine, practice with a few scraps of fabric until you feel comfortable handling the machine.
Some machines require you to hold down the reverse button while you’re making the stitches. Check to see if you need to do this or if you only have to press the button to start and stop reverse stitching.
The hand dial will give you more control than the foot pedal when making just a few stitches.
The end of your fabric will now have 3 lines of thread that overlap to end the stitch.
Some machines have a small thread cutter built into the side of the machine. To use this cutter, press the thread down on the blade to trim it.
