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 42
