How To: Sew a Blind Hem Stitch

[@doncall4908]

Thanks for the tutorials that you do. I am a 71 year old male that is taking up sewing again. My father and I self taught ourselves how to use a machine when I was 12 years old. We obviously didn't learn how to do very much. I have made curtains added button holes and sewn on buttons with the machine and not much more. I have a friend who is a very good seamstress and has given me a nice embroidering machine that I want to learn how to use. She has promised to teach me, however I wanted to have some of the basics on how to use a standard machine first. I have been through your 5 section tutorial for beginners and now have completed the section on blind stiching. Thanks again, very well done.

[@MadetoSew]

Hi Don, it is great to hear that you are taking up sewing again. Really pleased that you have enjoyed the tutorials. Thank you for sharing your story. Aneka

[@sandrasmith5577]

I did this with the zig zag presser foot and my $76 sewing machine and 2 pair of glasses. It turned out fine since thread matched my garment perfectly. I now understand why Mama taught me to only hand stitch the hem. The blind hem stitch almost made me go blind! Definitely need to have that special presser foot. Great video and such a beautiful voice you have.

[@MadetoSew]

Thank you Sandra, really pleased I could help. The foot does help, so I would recommend it if you plan to do it often. Aneka

Thank you! Yes, unless the machine is going to make a very good job of it then hand sewn hems may be better. 😊

I was totally unaware of blind hem thread. Thank you. I only recently started experimenting with the blind hem function of my White sewing machine, which I purchased straight out of college. Until now, I sewed my hems by hand as my grandmother taught me. My circle skirt hem seamed endless so I tried the blind hem stitch. It turned out adequate. Thanks to your video, I will do a better job next time. Your videos are awesome. Thank you for posting them.

[@dancetoday542]

I've had my sewing machine for 20 years and never managed a blind hem till I watched this video. So clear and concise. I am sewing a viscose ponte and I tried the blind hem foot and it came out perfectly. My question is do I need to stabilise the hem on a ponte? I have sent off for some stretch stay tape. Where do I place it for a blind hem? I tried the blind hem using Prym Wonder Tape as I saw that in one of your videos, so I placed it on the edge where I would be sewing but the blind hem wasn't as good .

[@MadetoSew]

Hi Marilyn, you don't have to stabilise the hem but you might want to. It can make the blind hem stitches less visible and it can help to support the fabric and provide it with some longevity. You will need a stretch interfacing; either strips or you can cut your own. I would place the interfacing so that you will be catching it when you stitch the blind hem. But ideally it can be hidden by the hem on the inside of the garment. You may want the interfacing to go over the fold of the hem (if you want to support the fold of the fabric). If passing the fold of the hem, do so by about 1/2" 1cm. Does that help? Aneka

[@petercane6376]

Thank you so much for your tutorials. You are a born TEACHER! The Best!! You explain everything slowly and assume we do not know which is great. Your videography is perfect. I was watching how to sew a blind stitch. You explained this very well but because I am an over 70 OAP I had to rewind several times the "get" what folds where and what STITCHES where. I love sewing and make my own garments but wish to improve all the time. Your videos help immensely. I am currently sewing up a striped shirt. Is that the sort of garment I would use a blind hem for the short sleeves and where it hangs low to the torso? Or are blind hems only for things like curtains?. I am so pleased that I have now sewed my first blind hem as an exercise. It was quite baffling but I wanted to systematically go through all the feet that came with the machine so that I could understand and " get it". Sorry for the long winded explanation. The late Queen Elizabeth had it right! Do not explain!! But then we cannot learn?

This is so easy to understand! One question: My machine doesn't have a blind stitch pattern. All you can do is adjust it from straight stitch to a wide zigzag. Would a blind hem made this way just show up as a lot of closer-together thread-pricks (which I'm fine with), or would it just not work?

[@andieherzog2633]

I love your videos! Thanks for the content. Would this blind hem stitch work well for curved hems, such as a circle skirt?

Hi Andrea, yes you can do this on a circle skirt, just make sure that you ease in the pressed up amount, or use bias binding to hem instead. Aneka

Hello, this is a useful video, i just think that it would be really good if you could see how to hem an actual pair of say, woman's trousers, especially when folding the trouser ready to hem, so that you can actually see how it looks on a garment you wish to take up. I think there may be a better understanding of how this is done.

[@MadetoSew]

Thank you. Happy to do a video on actually hemming a pair of trousers and using this technique. 😀

[@____darrah____]

Thank you so much for the tutorial! One question.. when I do my blind hem the right side’s thread are more so vertical lines, while yours looks like little dots. The vertical stitches also go over the basting stitch while yours remains above it. How can I make mine look more like yours?

[@MadetoSew]

Hi Darrak, some machines are better at a blind hem than others. You may need to play with the settings for how much the needle is sewing into that front layer of the fabric. This might be in the stitch settings, or on one of my other machines it's on the machine foot, I have to turn a dial on the foot to increase the width that the needle has to travel to grab into the fabric. I would suggest that is the first step. In terms of position of the stitches it may be how your machine is designed to do it. Could you baste in a different location to help this?

[@rlittlehomestead5493]

Thank you, just what I needed 💜

[@MadetoSew]

Thank you.

[@jimkoss3318]

I don’t know why, but few blind hem tutorials explicitly state that you should take the bite as close as possible to the fold.

[@MadetoSew]

Thanks for sharing Jim, you are correct. You want to grab as little as the fabric as possible. And can change the settings (and/or machine presser foot (depending on machine)), to achieve this.

[@goratxiki]

Hi Aneka- I'm new to your channel and I LOVE it! I love to make full skirts but cant figure out how to do a wide hem. The ease gets in the way. Is there any way to do that? Thanks.

[@MadetoSew]

Hi Kelsey, you will need to run a gathering stitch around the edge of the fabric to help ease the hem into place. Or I would hem with bias, or cut a facing that is wide and like a hem? Aneka

[@lilyhernandez2574]

Hi Anika, I love your tutorials thanks for sharing your knowledge. I’m a beginner so sorry if this is a silly question. If I’m using hemming thread do I use it just the same as regular thread? Meaning, I have to add it to the bobbin too?

[@MadetoSew]

Hi Areli, you can just put this hemming thread in the needle (as the bobbin isn't visible anyway). This is probably the easiest thing as you will need to tweak tension etc. and then you won't have to play with the bobbin tension. Or you can try it in both. If you want to tweak the bobbin tension I would recommend purchasing a second bobbin case to make any adjustments to, so your not affecting your usual one.

[@lilyhernandez2574]

@@MadetoSew thank you so much for your response. Once more thanks for such clear and useful tutorials. I just put together a shirt and knew about basting but felt It was doing the work twice, so I guess out of laziness I didn’t think about using it. Then I saw one of your tutorials and the lightbulb went on. I tried it and it made a huge difference. I think I’m basting everything from here on out. As long as the fabric permits.

[@MadetoSew]

@@lilyhernandez2574 So pleased you are finding them useful and learning new techniques.

[@MadetoSew]

@@lilyhernandez2574 So pleased I could help. I think it depends on the fabric, tricky fabrics (or if your learning), basting doesn't harm anything and if it means you don't have to un-do something it's worth it! 😊

[@americanescu]

Can you please tell me once again what stitch did you use to finish the edge of that fabric? I cannot make it out from the video! If you have a video describing this technique, please list it for me in your reply. Thanks so much for your tutorial! I find it very well done!

Yes, of course. I used an overlocker / serger to finish the edge of the fabric. This is another machine. This video shows different methods you could use on your sewing machine: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bp7EgmRnmpatjJI then it will feed you off to videos on how to do them. Hope this helps?

[@abcposton]

Amazing techniques, thank you! Yet I am struggling to do it, I mean when is supposed to stitch the straight stitches, the top thread doesn’t catch the under thread, although test sewing the blind hem on a piece of the same fabric comes out fine. Already tried to adjust the tension, still the same problem. I have no ideea what to adjust next.

[@MadetoSew]

Does your foot have a little red screw of anything on it? If it does you might need to use this to move the foot over, as this allows the needle to get more bite in the fabric or less bite. Does this help or is it just the straight stitch thats the issue? So it worked on some fabric but not others? Please share and I will try and share. Aneka x

I must be very stupid, i folded the fabric with the quarter inch allowance, at 7:12 where she is about to baste stitch i have no idea how the fabric was placed under the foot, i see a fold but it does not look like my fold, i am crying!

[@MadetoSew]

Really sorry to confuse you Emma. So the fabric is placed under the foot with the WRONG side of the garment facing up. The Hem allowance is facing up as you can see and that 1/4" inch will be in the middle (the amount you folded over, or are hiding in the hem), it should be under the presser foot of the sewing machine. So under the presser foot of the sewing machine is about 3 layers of fabric. The only part to have 3 layers. Do you have a different hem allowance? is that why it looks different?

Hi again! I would be grateful if you could answer a question for me: my sewing machine (Brother) has the blind stich zigzags "facing" towards the right which is impossible to use for narrow garments like pants hems. I am using instead the stretch blind stich but I was wondering if there was anything else that I could do.

[@MadetoSew]

Hi Anthi, hmm.... that is a difficult one. Are there any other hemming stitches available on your machine, I think it is ok to do the stretch stitch if that is the only workable option. Or I would do it by hand; but that defeats the point of the machine.

[@irfantaylor6575]

Hi mam, I have my track which is long in length so should I cut the the unnecessary length and sewing hem or directly fold the bottom to sew so that length becames short

[@MadetoSew]

You want to get the length correct so that the hem can fold up. So you may still need to cut some away.

[@MidIronMoni]

If you are short on time, skip to 5:30 if you only need a refresher. This is where you learn how to position your fabric for the stitch.
