(as shown in Fig. 1) against the right side of the fabric with
the top edge of the hem extending about 7 mm (1/4") to the
right side of the folded fabric.
Start to sew slowly on the fold, making sure the needle
touches slightly the folded top to catch one or two fabric
threads. (2)
Unfold the fabric when hemming is completed and press.
Note:
To make blind hem sewing even easier, use a blind hem
foot, available from your SINGER® retailer. (See page 9
