be overcast first. Then fold the hem as illustrated.

How to sew
z 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.
Sew, while guiding the fabric so that the needle
catches the folded edge.
x If the needle drops on the left side too far, the
stitches appear on the right side of the fabric.
