4. Иштөө нускамалары
Using the rolled hem presser foot requires a slightly different technique than standard hemming. Practice on scrap fabric before working on your final project.
Steps for Creating a Rolled Hem:
- Prepare Fabric Edge: For best results, trim the fabric edge straight. No need to pre-fold or iron.
- Initial Stitching: Place the fabric under the presser foot. For the first few stitches, it can be helpful to manually fold the very edge of the fabric (about 1/8 inch or 3mm) twice and place it under the foot, guiding it into the scroll of the foot. Stitch 2-3 stitches to secure.
- Engage the Scroll: With the needle down, lift the presser foot slightly. Gently guide the raw edge of the fabric into the spiral scroll on the front of the presser foot. The scroll will automatically turn the fabric edge twice.
- Тигүү баштоо: Lower the presser foot. Start sewing slowly, ensuring the raw edge of the fabric continues to feed smoothly into the scroll. Maintain a consistent, gentle tension on the fabric to keep it feeding correctly.
- Guide the Fabric: Use your right hand to guide the fabric from the side, keeping the raw edge aligned with the scroll. Use your left hand to gently pull the fabric from behind the needle, ensuring it feeds evenly. Avoid pulling too hard, as this can distort the hem.
- Бүтүрүү: Continue until the end of the fabric edge. Backstitch to secure the hem.
