How to sew Sewing • Refer to "Chain off and test sew"on page 9. • For rolled hemming, a better stitch quality can be obtained by pulling the fabric lightly in the forward direction to give slight tension to the fabric. • When starting to sew, hold chained off thread end lightly to prevent it from being sewn into the seam. • The minimum overedge seam width that can be obtained for rolled hem is approximately 1.5mm because the cutting width can not be set below 3.5mm. 24
