How To Use Picot/Hemming Presser Foot

#PicoPresserFoot #SewingPresserFoot #StayHome
Picot foot looks similar to narrow hemmer foot but is designed to create a shell look edge on lightweight fabric
Groove on sole of foot has been specifically developed to match width of picot stitches for perfect stitch formation
Groove on sole of foot allows stitches to feed evenly while being created and sewn
Rolled hem foot (some machines have a picot foot but you can do allright with a rolled hem foot)
Zig zag needle plate
Matching thread in bobbin and top thread. A contrasting coloured thread can also be used for a visual interest.
Step 1. Set the machine stitch length to 3.5 & stitch width to 3.5
In a picot edge stitch, fabric at the edge is folded by the rolled hem foot and the zig zag stitch encloses the fold in thread with small ridges.
Step 2. Keep the fabric right side down on the machine to the left of the feet. Start sewing with a straight stitch. Make a straight stitch for 1/2 an inch on the fabric ( 3 or 4 stitches). Take off the fabric, without cutting the thread. You have a small length of thread between the needle and the fabric now.Cut the thread with a long tail hanging behind the fabric. We need this thread tail to guide the fabric for the picot edge.
Step 3. Change the stitch to zig zag, of stitch width 3.5 and stitch length 3.5. Make sure that the tension on your machine is loose.
Start stitching again, stitching the zig zag on the thread first and then continue on to the fabric, inserting the edges into the folds of the rolled hem foot. Feed the fabric gently into the needle, folding and sewing. A perfect picot edge is formed on the edge. At the end you can make a reverse stitch to anchor the thread.
Step 4. Cut away loose threads
5 Reasons Why I Love A Picot Hem -
Picot Stitch reduced my sewing time.
I don't have to worry about curves, bias clothes' ends, thin fabrics etc. Pico gives me a perfect finish.
I can experiment with so many decorative stitches and designs.
I can make fluid fabric dresses (I mean all that thin, flowy fabrics, which are hard to handle).
Easy, Simple and So Much Fun to do with colorful threads and stitch width options.

Mem rormal machine me use kar sakte hai

[@StitchSWearShantiSingh]

Hi Raushani Kumari, I am assuming you are using old non motorised machine. In that case you can use the hemming foot with straight stitch but not with hem stitch. Because old machine doesn't have zig zag stitch function. In case you have new machine you can buy the low shank hemming from the link in video.
