I recently purchased a blind hemmer and this has helped me tremendously. Thankyou so much.❤

[jayclaw]

Thank you for this tutorial, this is exactly the skill I wanted to learn!

Hi infound the mat and roller scissor. What ruler are you using? Nice tutorial.

[rudy]

Hello, great video tutorial! What is the brand name of the metal ruler safety guide you use to cut the pants? Thanks!

When starting to surge/overlock a "closed circle" like this, I prefer to lift the foot, releasing the thread tension, pull a bit of thread out at the needle. Then I pull the "thread-tail" off the fork. This enables me to place the fabric under the foot and needle exactly where I want to start. No loops hanging on the edge of the fabric. To stop I go an inch past the beginning, lifting the foot and turn the fabric 80-90º to surge off the fabric.
You seem to have an awesome machine for blind hemming? Blind-hem only? It is absolutely possible to use my serger to do this, but I prefer using my sewing machine. (I'm just an happy amateur!)

I would love to see you do a military ‘break’ in the front and a 3/4” longer in the heel. How would you measure and Mark this? Thank you for the tutorial.

Oh geez. That's an awesome machine for blind stitching. I only have a Bernina reg sewing machine. Blind stitch never comes out great. I often find myself just wanting to hand stitch a blind stitch. Also, I don't have a serger, so finishing a raw hem is less beautiful w/ a zig zag :( If anyone has any suggestions or tips for finishing a raw edge or hemming pants w/ just a reg machine, please share!

How do you address the extra fabric when you sew the hem two inches up and the pant is wider there?

[Ugoeze]

Thanks dear, is the 2" hem the same for female workwear pants or is it 1" for female pants

[helenburrell]

What kind of pressure foot is on the machine for the hem

[Kelly-vcrs]

How do we do this using a normal sewing machine?

[stephenmbithi]

My machine is not able to pick the thread from bottom, and also it is hard when I try to run the wheel, what might be the problem?

wenn du der Hose koblen die gute seite nach oben

I'm so confused by the intro. Where is the second example in this video? That's what I came here looking for, but looks like it was first example only. Second one should just have been left out of the intro then.

[gjiancok]

Do you have to remove th excess fabric from the first example? Cant i just keep it in?

What a monumental waste of time. The title should include that this requires both a server AND a blind hemming machine. 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️
