Learn to Sew - How to Sew a Ribbon-Edge Hem Finish

I’ve used the hem ribbon stitch, but the organza ribbon technique is a great new idea! thanks

Wonderful!

I didn't know this was an actual technique 😮 A while ago I got this amazing jacquard fabric remnant in Paris and made an unlined jacket out of it. I didn't have anything left so I used ribbon to hem it and even the sleeves 😅

Good call. 😊

[@lovetosew1373]

Brilliant 😊

Thank you for the video !! I wonder if the second technique also works for sheer fabrics like organza or if it would be too fragile in the end 😮

I am wondering can you use wire ribbon for a trim on a dress

Hi Sherry, it might be a little uncomfortable if it's a wired edged ribbon, but you could always try it and see how it feels!

Can you do a mitered ribbon edge hem?

Thank you for your suggestion!

I was wondering about how the elastic band with the pretty ribbon edging would be sewn on, my mom is a very skilled sewer but, unfortunately, have never seen this specific thing be done, plus, it was very hard to see the thread where you had sewn the green ribbon on after you had completed the final piece, the glare from the shine of the ribbon blocked it from being visible. I’m certain you didn’t go down the middle of the ribbon, did you? I didn’t see any other comment mention anything about this.
