Blindstitching provides a durable hem finish that is
invisible and is comparable to hand sewing. It is best
suited to straight and slightly curved hems. Taped,
bound, turned, or unfinished hem edges can be blind-
stitched with equal ease. Blindstitching takes a little
practice, however, so make a test sample first.
1. Mark, turn, and press hem in the usual way.
2. Baste a guide line inch from the top of the hem
edge.
3. Place hem edge over the feed of the machine,
turning bulk of fabric to the left and thus creating
a soft fold.
4. Stitch so that straight stitches fall on hem edge
and sideward stitches pierce the soft fold.
