Binding edges with the hemmer * Hemmer foot (special accessory) Hemming secures the fabric edge against fraying and produces a neat and durable edge. The hem width is about 3.5 mm. Begin by folding the fabric edge over twice and placing the folded edge under the hemmer foot. Lower the foot and secure the hem in position with a few stitches. Fig. 0 shows how the fabric is drawn into the hem mer foot scroll with the aid of the stitched-down threads. Fig. 2 shows how the fabric edge is fed into the hemmer foot scroll. Hold the fabric tight as you guide it during sewing. Make sure the fabric con tacts the edge of the right half of the hemmer foot as it enters the scroll. Binding edges with the roll hemmer prog 10 J--Tj - 3(5m h-*---1 * Roll hemmer (special accessory) Use the roll hemmer foot for hemming nylon, tricot and chiffon. Begin by stretching the fabric to see which way the edge curls. This is the side to which the hem must be rolled. Draw the fabric into the hemmer scroll with the aid of sewn on threads. Set the stitch width just wide enough that the needle stitches close to the drawn-in hem edge (Fig. 3). In this way, an attractive shell edge effect is ob tained. 3
