Great tutorial! You are always so good at taking the fear away from sewing with knits.

[@margiebright1923]

Love all of them. The cover stitch is my favorite too!

[@laurieschmitz3897]

I love the fact that you make these special videos on tips and hacks! I’ve been sewinf for many years but I still pick up great tips from you. Thanks so much!

[@EllieandMacPatternsLLC]

Laurie Schmitz Thank you so much for watching! 😍 I am so glad you enjoyed it! ❤️

[@stephaniesamaniego4985]

I've had a coverstitch machine for over a year but just started to really use it without fear thanks to your videos.

[@AF-lw8io]

Another great tutorial! You explain things so well!

[@kaywest1182]

Thanks for showing the various hemming options.

[@kennethiacgilliam]

Thank you! I've made a lot of these with crocked hems😂😂😂

[@serenabonnema]

Thanks for showing hem options!

[@kellykranz7652]

Thank you for the tutorial! Great job!

[@helenmontgomery5357]

I love this. It is very helpful. I have traveled hemming circles, so this is very helpful. Thank you

[@EllieandMacPatternsLLC]

Wonderful!

[@evitaevita98]

This was a great tutorial!! Thank you!

[@AF-lw8io]

Thank you for another great tutorial! 👍

[@amyadams2419]

Another great tutorial-thank you

[@Pipper]

Exactly what I needed. Thank you

[@Lorelei_Thoughts]

I usually do a faux coverstitch because I don’t have a cover stitch machine. So I serge the ends then hem with a double needle. Also stay tape is so helpful!

[@lavadajenkins2955]

Very helpful, thank you!

[@lucycastillo2290]

Great tutorial! 💚

[@jacosteyn7361]

You saved my day. Its my first time doing a curved hem, and it looked kinda intimidating. So I wanted some tips before I mess up my project. Im making canvas riding chaps. Thanks for simplifying it for me. And thanks for the advice. And you're very pretty.

[@EllieandMacPatternsLLC]

thank you!!

[@103forrest]

I do a decorative rolled hem with my serger 😘

[@sarahodonnell6957]

Brilliant Thank You 🙌🏻❤️💚💜

[@jaynapowell3526]

So helpful! I'm using a gauze material and trying to decide if I have to fold it up twice so it won't fray. But your description about pulling the skirt when you go around was a great suggestion! And I think will work if I do decide to fold it twice. Thanks so much!

[@EllieandMacPatternsLLC]

You are so welcome! and yes, if its a woven fabric you will either want to finish the raw edge first or fold over twice! ❤️

[@amysmith2992]

Wow, I don't know how, but you always seem to post videos of exactly what I'm working on. I prefer a double needle, but I think that's only because I haven't figured out my coverstitch machine yet.

[@msramona60]

Thank you for the video, I totally forgot I had him tape in my stash

[@sayerc455]

I do love a circle skirt. X

[@teresawilliams662]

I don't him very well at all but using the message that you showed in this video I think I will be better at it so thank you

[@annettemoody2237]

thank you for sharing

[@biancaabrahams2266]

Thank you for this video! I need to get some seam tape.

[@gloriawalker3226]

Thanks!

[@amandaguthrie7326]

I love my cover stitch for gems!

[@nannettenielsen216]

I would love it if you could show me how to blend sizes on your knit patterns. I just tried that for my granddaughter with the school cool dress, and it is a bit of a hot mess. I'm giving it to her anyway because I'm not going to start over. Please make a video for that. These videos are a necessity. ❤

[@EllieandMacPatternsLLC]

We have a great blog for that as well, maybe that will help in the mean time: www.ellieandmac.com/blogs/blog/pattern-grading-sos

[@biancavita4922]

Another great tutorial thank you!

[@EllieandMacPatternsLLC]

Bianca Vita, Thank you so much for watching! 😍 I am so glad you enjoyed it! ❤️

[@clovisperkins7138]

Thanks Diana. I will have to try the tape. My circle hem are not that good.

[@suzannewalker2090]

I have only used a zig zag for hemming. Would using a double needle produce a stretch stitch? You can't do a zig zag with a double needle I don't think. Great video!

[@azaleasmom1]

I Just ordered my steam a seam~

[@manuelevie]

I like the cover stitch. It looks more professional.

[@eileenjohnston6835]

Thank you very much!

[@EllieandMacPatternsLLC]

You're welcome!

[@gracieallen8285]

Hint, if you’re in doubt of being able to guess at the hem depth, get out your dritz metal seam gage you can insert it in the hem and it doesn’t hurt to iron over the seam gauge

[@azaleasmom1]

What is the name of this item? I would love to test it out

[@gracieallen8285]

NySews, 620 Seam Gauge by Dritz, it’s metal and you can iron over it, I’ve seen plastic by other manufacturers

[@exoticbandage3198]

Question do you know if I can use that on my Dance wear. What I mean is like is it clear, because the girls that I make outfits for they work in the club most of the time, and a lot of times there's black lights.. I just been wanting to try it out but I don't want to do anything to risk messing up anybody's outfit do you know if it shows by any chance?

[@margaretwood1255]

Does the hem roll up, since it's so shallow?

[@theperfectimperfectfamily13]

I like my coverstitch

[@angeltheangel86]

Is this basically the same for curved hem shirts???

[@siamese35]

Stretch stitch isn’t necessary. That part of the skirt isn’t stretched anyway. Perfectly fine. You should hand tie the coverstitch threads so they don’t come out on you.

[@leechoonlau9835]

Another way is to use a bias tape

[@camilledammasch3648]

Good idea

[@TheRobb227]

What pattern is your top please

[@annicalundgren135]

Please the name of the tape ♥️
