quilter's knot

A quilter's knot is a simple, secure knot used to finish or secure thread ends when sewing. It involves tying a small, tight loop with the thread around the needle or hand, creating a knot that prevents the thread from slipping through fabric or stitches. This knot is especially useful in quilting to start or end a thread securely without bulky knots that can show through the fabric. It’s quick to tie and provides a reliable, neat finish, helping to ensure stitches stay even and the quilt's surface remains smooth.
