Utility stitches and practical sewing
Stabilizing edges
With the hemmer you can hem blouses, silk
scarves and valances with ease, without
having to pre-iron the fabric edges. The
hemming prevents the edges from fraying and
a clean, durable edge is the result.
• Fold the beginning of the fabric edge over
twice (approx. 2 mm)
• Lay the folded fabric edge underneath the
hemmer and sew a few stitches.
• Leave the needle in the fabric, raise the
presser foot and insert the fabric into the
hemmer foot scroll.
• Lower the presser foot and guide the fabric
evenly into the hemmer.
Take care to ensure that the fabric does not
run under the right half of the presser foot.
Tip: On silk, viscose and chiffon fabrics, the
roll hem is particularly attractive with a zigzag
stitch
