HEMMING WITH LACE
Selector setting: BL
Stitch Width: 3
Throat plate: General purpose
Narrow hemmer
Lace edgings can be applied with the Narrow
Hemmer to trim lingerie hems, children's clothes,
etc.
Lace Applied Over Hem. Fold and start the hem
in the usual way. Starting about 1" down from the
end of the lace, place the selvage under the needle
and lower needle to hold lace firmly. Raise the foot
slightly and slip the lace under the back portion
of the foot, without disturbing the position of the
fabric. Stitch slowly, guiding the fabric with the
right hand, the lace with the left. Take care not to
stretch the lace.
Lace Applied Under Hem. When using lace un
derneath the fold of a hem, the procedure is the
same as when making a hemmed seam. Slip the
lace in from the left as you would the second piece
of fabric. This method is used where a neat finish
is desired on both sides of the material.
