hemming
With
the
roll hemmer
7 and
Stitch
1 you can
produce
an
heirloom
finish
on
blouses,
scarves,
or
ruffles
without
having
to
first
press
under
the
edges.
Hemming
prevents
the
edges
from
fraying
and
produces
a
neat
and
durable
finish.
Double-fold
the
fabric
edge
(about
3
mm (1/8”)
per
fold).
Place
the
folded
fabric
edge
under
the
hemmer
and
sew
a
few
stitches
to secure.
Stop
with the
needle
down.
Raise the
presser
foot
and
slide
the
fold
of the
hem
into the
scroll
of the
hemmer
foot.
Lower
the presser
foot and,
while
sewing.
guide
the
fabric
edge
evenly
into the
scroll.
When
roll-hemming,
make
sure the
raw
edge
of the fabric
butts
against
the
left
edge
of the
scroll
opening.
Ensure
the fabric
does
not
tuck
underneath
the right
side
of the
presser
foot.
TIP:
Try
a zigzag
stitch
for
a different
effect.
