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.
