This is the best tutorial I’ve ever seen on this technique. I especially love seeing a leftie sewing. We’re seriously underrepresented.

I bought couture silk panels from a bargain warehouse to make gifts, and this video is perfect for me. Thank you! ❤

I've been watching videos on rolled hems for 2 days, but felt something was missing. I had an image in my head from years ago of the needle going into the top crease and somehow, it rolled. All the other videos show them rolling it twice by hand. I'm so glad I kept looking and found this one! I'm assuming you are sewing with one strand of thread?

Beautiful demonstration, your voice is calm and soothing, not rushing just perfect for tutorials.

Thank you from Truckee California. I'm fixing the fray on garters for irish Gallagher kilt socks. Smile.

Oooh I’ve always seen square shaped rolled hems, I like the diagonals, triangles are much stronger shapes structurally, thank you so much!

[nisebiggs]

Do you do back stitches every now and then so that the whole hem doesn't unravel if the thread breaks

As a fellow leftie, this tute is perfect, and I will be sewing a rolled hem for a scarf I am gifting to my aunt. Thank you so ever much!

I liked your technique, very nice. Not many appreciate what a hand sewn rolled hem can do for a garment. Thanks for sharing! I have. Been sewing for a long time now and use this technique myself. I use a shorter needle for hand sewing, when I can. It encourages smaller movements, shorter stitches and less stress on the wrist. I also avoid starting a knot on just one layer of fabric when possible, I think having more layers helps with thinner fabrics. I’m left curious on how you start off again on a rolled hem after you’ve run out of thread in the middle of a hem. I think that would definitely be helpful to see.

Great content!! I hope you continue to do this!
