Rolled Hem

Standard PQ foot. Use on the edge of fabric, such
as hems of dresses or shirts, to fold the edge of the
fabric in three while sewing.

Machine Set-Up:

Feed dogs up using one of the three settings based
on fabric and whether the pin feed is used. Other
settings are based on the needs of the project.

Materials Needed for Sample:

Lightweight synthetic

General Sewing Directions:

Insert needle about ¼” from corner and take two stitches. Turn the hand wheel toward you to raise the
needle, raise the presser foot and pull the fabric toward you. Hold the four threads in your left hand and
use the threads to guide the fabric into the foot. Lower the presser foot. Pull gently on threads in left hand
while sewing the first few stitches to hold them in place. Fold over hem and continue feeding folded hem
toward the curved guide of the foot as you sew.

the fabric to get it started going into the foot.
