Blind Stitch Hemming - Janome HD3000 Instruction Book

Blind Stitch Hemming

On lightweight fabrics the raw edge can be turned
under and pressed.
On heavy weight fabrics that ravel, the raw edge
should be overcast first.
Fold up the hem the desired amount and pin in place.
Then fold the hem under the fabric as illustrated.
Position the fabric on the machine so that the needle
just pierces the folded part of the fabric when the
needle comes over to the extreme left side.
Lower the presser foot.
Turn the guide screw and move the sliding guide next
to the folded edge. Sew guiding the folded edge along
the sliding guide.
