Blind hem for stretch fabrics.
Blind hem/ lingerie for firm fabrics.
Set the machine as illustrated.
It takes practice to sew blind hems.
Always make a sewing test first.
Fold the fabric as illustrated with the wrong side uppermost (1).
Place the fabric under the foot. Turn the handwheel forwards
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 accordingly (2).
Adjust the guide (3) by turning the knob (4) so that the guide
just rests against the fold.
Sew slowly, guiding the fabric carefully along the edge of the
guide.
