Rolled hem with hemmer No. 7- 1 Use the rolled hemmer to finish the edges of blouses, scarves, or ruffles without having to iron the edges beforehand. Hemming prevents the edges from fraying and produces a neat and durable edge finish. • Double-fold the fabric edge (about 1/8 inch / 2 mm per fold). • Place the folded fabric edge under the hemmer and sew a few stitches to secure. • Turn the handwheel towards you until the needle is at its lowest point. Raise the presser foot and slide the fabric into the scroll of the hemmer. • Lower the presser foot and while sewing, guide the fabric edge evenly into the hemmer. When roll-hemming, make sure the raw edge of the fabric butts against the left edge of the hemmer opening. Ensure the fabric does not run underneath the right side of the presser foot. Stitch 3 A narrow zigzag stitch also makes a nice rolled hem on lighter stretch fabrics. 66
