Yay! I love hand sewing so much.

I've handstitched clothing -- using a backstitch rather than a running stitch -- when I haven't had access to a machine. This technique creates a slightly softer seam line. (You can see this in quilts, as well). The seams are just as strong, if not stronger, than those that are machine sewn.
