On heavyweight fabrics that ravel, the raw edge should be
overcast first. Then fold the hem, as illustrated leaving 1/4"
(0.7 cm) of the hem edge showing.
Position the fabric on the machine so that the needle just
pierces the folded part of the fabric when the needle
comes over to the extreme left side of wide zigzag stitch.
Lower the presser foot.
After hemming is completed, press both sides of the
finished hem. The top side of the fabric shows only the
blind stitches.

Lace adds a fanciful, feminine touch to blouses and
lingerie. Table linens and pillows become more elegant
when trimmed with lace.
Fold raw edge of fabric at least 5/8" (1.5 cm). Place lace
underneath and topstitch with blind hem stitch.
Trim excess fabric close to stitching.
