Blind hems
B-11: Blind hem for woven fabrics
B-12: Blind hem for stretch fabrics
NOTE: It takes practice to sew blind hems.
Always make a sewing test first.
1. Fold the fabric as illustrated with the wrong side
uppermost.
2. Place the fabric under the foot. Turn the handwheel
counter-clockwise by hand until the needle swings
fully to the left. It should just pierce the fold of the
fabric. If it does not, adjust the stitch width accord-
ingly.
3. Adjust the guide (b) by turning the knob (a) so that the
guide just rests against the fold.
4. Sew slowly, guiding the fabric carefully along the edge
of the guide.
5. Turn over the fabric.
