HOW TO HAND SEW A Pretty Rolled Hem (RIGHT HANDED)

Want to know how to stitch a hand rolled hem? Hand sewn hems are a beautiful hand finishing technique for historical garments. This technique is used often in historical sewing from 18th-century caps, head wraps, neck cloths to 19th-century chemisettes. It is also the perfect way to hem a silk Hermes scarf or hem a pocket square. Grab your needle and thread and let's practice our hand sewing together!

How very thoughtful to make videos for both left and right handed people.

You instructed the rolled hem beautifully. My favorite oversized marbled silk scarf has a section of separated hem from 20 years of wear. I am encouraged to make the repair and wear it for another 20 years.

Thank you ! Yes you could absolutely cut out the frayed part and re-roll that!

5/8 of a centimeter broke me 😂

[@LisaOuwersloot]

Yeah, I’m still unsure, is it 6mm? Otherwise, awesome video and the attention given to left handed sewists? Very thoughtful and appreciated.

Joint rollers should be experts at this XD

[@frienjie7148]

disgraceful. 🤦🏽

[@liss441]

Think I’ll do that for a veil

[@pennybean6851]

Wonderful! Thank you for showing us how to do a rolled hem. How would you handle sewing a rolled hem around an inside or an outside corner?? Thanks!

[@sewncompany]

You’re welcome! That is an excellent question! To go around the corner I will roll hem all the way to the edge and then I will turn it 90° and be very very careful to roll the hem of the first side into the hem of the second side sometimes you have to trim off the excess from the first side. Some thing that I find helpful is using the tip of my needle to push the bulkiness into the hem. I hope that makes sense! Let me know how it goes.

[@Ms88keys1]

Hello, how do I sew a rolled hem with contrasting color I’ve seen beautiful pocket squares with this look and don’t know how they do it.

[@ratbox3002]

I’ve been trying to figure out what this hem is called for a while now! I’m using it on a pair of pj shorts I’m working to hem around the legs so it looks like, flowy and pretty
