NOTE Sewing requirements will vary according to the type of item being repaired and the type of repair being made.  The type of sewing machine, type of thread, the stitch range, and the stitch pattern, if applicable, required to accomplish a sewing procedure will be specified in the paragraph applicable to the item being repaired.  All original stitching that is cut during the performance of a sewing procedure will be removed from the applicable item.  Immediately after the accomplishment of a machine sewing procedure, trim thread ends to a point as close as possible to the material, which has been sewn. Basting and Temporary Tacking.  Basting and temporary tacking are hand-sewing methods used to temporarily hold layers of cloth fabric together while a repair is being performed.  The following is a list of procedures, which apply to basting and temporary tacking actions: 1.    Basting and temporary tacking should be made using thread that is of a contrasting color to the material being worked. 2.    Basting will be made using a single strand of size A, nylon thread.
