Please choose the correct solution to the question: How to sew a straight stitch for mending a pillowcase seam by hand?

Solution1: Thread the needle using a wire threader, to save many minutes. Once the thread is through, double it back for strength, tie a knot at the end, leaving the thread twice as long as the pillow case. That way you won't have to stop in the middle and thread a new needle. Turn the pillow case inside out, and begin at the edge closest to you. Pierce the fabric, sending the needle away from you, and bring it back out 1/8th of an inch further, in and out, each time. Repeat until the entire edge has been re-seamed. Tie a knot at the end of the pillowcase so it won't unravel in your sleep. Turn the pillow case right side out, and voila your seam will be repaired.

Solution2: Gather the pillow case edge by edge and fold it over so the rip doesn't show, or use a dark colored dye to conceal it. If the pillow case is now too small, you can shorten the pillow a bit so it will still fit.
