It didn’t seem clear the of how to adjust the foot. Is the wheel on the foot against the serged edge.
Aurora is a very good teacher - good information put across very well, thank you Aurora!
Best demonstration on this kind of hemming I have ever seen. Great instructions!
A very useful 'how' to!. But the pant is dark the thread is dark. Difficult to see!. Also using the 'wall' comment instead of 'space' between stitch is confusing. Great effort though in describing a difficult job.
Now I get it. I have a blind hem foot and I tried practicing on scrap fabric but I couldn't figure it out. Now I understand. Thanks Aurora!
It would be nice to have a lighter pair of pants with dark thread so we can see what you are saying
Thank you for demonstrating this in an easy to understand way.
That's the best demonstration of a blind hem that I've seen. Thanks Aurora, your demonstrations are always easily understandable and a pleasure to watch even though I have been sewing for many years.
Thank you. I didn't know how to do a blind hem. Didn't even know a blind hem foot existed. Your tutorial is clear even for a complete beginner. Thank you very much.
My sewing machine doesn't have a blind hem stitch. Any suggestions? Could I fake it with a zig zag? Thank you!
