How To Sew A Narrow Curved Hem

Sewing Technique - Sew A Narrow Curved Hem

Sewing Friends:

Whether you are trying to hem a circular skirt or a curved shirt tail hem, it should not have angles or tucks in the hem. Try this easy sewing technique for better curves.

Here are the steps to sew a narrow curved hem.
  • Set the sewing machine for a regular stitch.
  • Stitch through a single layer of fabric around the bottom of the hem 1/4 inch away from the bottom edge.
  • Press up this 1/4 inch so that the stitches just slightly roll to the inside of the hem.
  • Now, turn the hem up 1/4 inch again.
  • Press the hem with steam. This will help ease in the hem to remove any extra fullness.
  • Stitch the hem in place

Try it. It just makes sense.

To Your Sewing Success,

Marian
