Overlocker / Serger Rolled Hem

Miss Sew shows you how to sew a rolled hem on your overlocker / serger.
This technique can be used to create hems on a range of different fabrics. It's best used on lightweight fabrics to give a beautiful finish.
The machine used in the video is a Janome 9102D, similar to the 9300DX. The settings used for this machine will be similar for any make or model of overlocker / serger. Refer to your manual for more details.
Woolly nylon is used in the upper looper to give more coverage of the raw edge and a softer finish. Regular sew all polyester thread is used in the needle and lower looper. Regular thread can be used in place of the woolly nylon.

Thank you very much even though you didn't have the same make Sewing machine you were the most helpful assisting me on what I need to do

[@HouseofMissSew]

I’m so pleased I could help. Thank you for watching ☺️

[@sewsarahstitch]

Thanks, I’ve never tried this as I’ve always been too daunted but I’ll give it a go now 😊

[@HouseofMissSew]

Try it - it’s not as hard as you might think. Take a photo of your current settings so you know what to switch them back to once you’ve finished rolled hemming 😊

While using the side cutter serger on normal can we do this ? Also when using that foot can we hem decorative stitches?

[@HouseofMissSew]

I’m not sure I understand your question. Your machine manual will explain how you can achieve a rolled hem but the settings will be similar to those shown in the video.

Do you change the thread to wooly thread on all of the other?

[@HouseofMissSew]

No, I only use the woolly nylon on the upper looper. The other thread is regular polyester in a matching colour

@@HouseofMissSew Thank you

@@deannagarrison5652 you can just use regular thread in the upper looper instead. The woolly nylon will give a softer finish and better coverage of the raw edge as it ‘fluffs’ out a little.
