XE0754001 Hemmer Foot
This foot is designed to curl under a 3mm double hem while stitching with
either a straight stitch or a decorative Parisian hemstitch. Works best on
lightweight fabrics.
This presser foot can be used on a sewing machine with a zigzag stitch width
up to 7 mm.
-
Remove presser foot and attach snap-on narrow hemmer foot.
-
Select the straight stitch (center needle position).
-
Connect the foot controller so that both hands are free to guide the fabric.
-
Position the fabric (reverse side facing up) under the presser foot. Lower the needle 3 mm from the edges of the fabric, lower the presser foot, then sew 2 or 3 stitches.
-
Raise the needle and the presser foot, and then hold the ends of the upper thread and lower thread to prevent them from being pulled out of the fabric and pull the fabric out from the front of the presser foot.
-
Holding both threads, pass them through the curled part of the presser foot and pull them toward the back of the presser foot. Wrap the fabric around the curled part of the presser foot in the same way. Position the edge of the fabric just behind the needle and lower the presser foot.
-
Without allowing the fabric to stick out from the right side of the presser foot, lightly pull on the thread while slowly sewing.
-
After sewing 2 to 3 cm of the fabric, release the thread and guide the fabric from the front of the presser foot with your left hand. Keep a uniform amount of fabric wrapped around the presser foot curl until the seam is completed.
HINTS: If too little fabric is wrapped around the curl and a threefold seam is not being sewn: pull the fabric held in your right hand to the left in order to increase the amount of fabric wrapped in the presser foot curl. At the same time, carefully guide the fabric to the right with your left hand. HINTS: If too much fabric is wrapped around the curl and a wide threefold seam is being sewn: pull the fabric held in your right hand to the right in order to decrease the amount of fabric wrapped in the presser foot curl. At the same time, carefully guide the extra fabric to the left with your left hand.
