“If you are feeling like you need this for a dress you’re supposed to wear to a wedding tomorrow…” So, I looked up this tutorial to help me hem my bridesmaid’s dress. For my friend’s wedding…tomorrow. I can’t tell you how hard I laughed. Thank you for posting this video! It was very insightful and thorough, and it added a lot of levity to my evening. 😂

Oh my GOD literally just that "line up the edge to the bar" thing absolutely changed the game for me!! Haven't seen that on any other tutorial and got a perfect hem first try (after many failed attempts before this tutorial obviously). Thank you!!

Great video! Really good to follow along. I had to laugh when you said dont try using it for a dress you've made for a wedding the next day 😅 Exactly what i was doing, i did a couple of test runs and then hemmed successfully thanks to your instructions!

There’s more than one rolled hemmed foot? 🤷‍♀️🙋‍♀️🤦‍♀️ Now I know!!! Thank you!!

When you said that the first few stitches would be hidden, allowed me to get a rolled hem. I kept trying to start way back where the funnel is. Thanks for a clear explanation

Oh my god, I was making a Selkie dress, and I hand folded and hemmed it when I realised it was provided with my machine, I just screamed at myself like where was my brain. 😭 The tips given were amazing

This tutorial is AMAZING!!!! First time using a rolled hem foot and it was so easy to catch on with the tips and tricks from this video. Thank you so so much!!

Huge help with the awl. I have watched 10 different videos about this foot, and had a mess every time. Thanks to you showing how to poke the fabric all the way in, I tried again, and Voila! Rolled hem!

You are the first person to get me to figure this out. I’ve literally been trying to accomplish this for years. Thanks a lot!!

I never could figure out my rolled hem foot, so I’m glad I found this video! Thanks for the easy-to-follow tutorial and for making my projects go much quicker!

Game changer had no idea you could use something other than a straight stitch. Thank you!

LOL you just called me out literally exactly, I wanted to do this for a dress for a wedding tomorrow 😂😂😂

That's it 😊 following the little bar makes my zigzag hemline absolutely beautiful. Thanks

This video is AMAZING! As others have said, the bar tip is out of this world! Thank you! 🎉

And once again you hear from me - good job and reminder that there are quicker, simpler, and better results for those delicate summer fabrics that we wear so short a time!

So helpful!!! Knowing about the bar is truly a game changer for me. I'm hemming some sheer 7 yd length curtains and always fight getting started. Using 2 or 3 stitches at the beginning and then bringing those thru the scroll is how I've been doing this for years but it was still a 2 or 3 try process to get started. Knowing about the bar has made all the difference in the world. Thanks! 😊

Thank you so much. After an independent try I watched your video and achieved a rolled hem first time. I used the unpicker to encourage the fabric into the foot (ok I stabbed it). It worked a treat 😊

Holy cow, your tips and tricks are fabulous!!!! I love my rolled hem foot (for over 50 years) but often struggle getting it started. The tools and how you demonstrate them are brilliant. I'm so glad you posted this. Thank you!!!

This was the best demonstration and explanation that I found on KZfaq! Thank you so much!

Oh this helped a bunch. I was questioning why I got the foot until watched this.

This was a fantastic tutorial! Thank you for showing and explaining how the foot works. 15 min later I'm pretty happy with what my rolled hem is looking like. Thank you.

Best tutorial for the rolled gem foot I’ve seen! Thank you!!

Oh, I didn’t even know there are different sizes of rolled hem foot. No wonder I’m never successful using the 3 mm one I have. Thank you so much.

I used my rolled hem foot for the first time thanks to your tutorial. And it was perfect. Thanks

I just sewed that on the first try. I’ve sewn plenty of hems, with the standard foot (fold, iron, press, sew, repeat), but all the tutorials I’ve seen on these were so complicated that I didn’t really see the point… by the time I’d get it set up I could’ve gone through the whole routine I was used to. The tip about the fabric matching the bar and pre folding the fabric made the difference. Thanks!

Thank you for this. It’s been hit or miss with this foot so I’m glad to know that with more practice it will get better!

The demonstration starts at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="271">4:31</a> folks

Thank you so much for this, I bought the feet but didn’t have a clue how to use them, you made it so clear and I think luck was on my side as the first time I tried it worked!!

Straightforward instructions. Thanks for the tips. I wanted easier hems.

You have a great personality! Thank you for this

Thank you, THANK YOU! I just made a perfect rolled hem!!!! Thanks again!

Thank you! I was struggling and gave up. I’ll get it out again and give it a go.

I plan to use the 3 mm foot to sew miniature bedding. Thank you for the tutorial. ❤

Wow, I just ordered mine yesterday and they are coming today. Can't wait to try them out. I wanted them to make those gauze baby blankets. I guess ill have to play with them a little bit first so I don't mess up the blankets. Thank you so, so much for demonstrating how to use them.

The narrow foot you were asking about is designed for straight stitch /narrow rolled hem. Thanks for the video. Very helpful.

Brilliant. This helped me so much, thank you!

Got it working on my first try, thanks! The hems on my wedding dress are going to be perfect!

Super helpful!! Third video I tried and first time I could accomplish a rolled hem! Thank you!

This was sooooo helpful, great energy 👍🏾

Thanks. I have one ,have used it once. Am now eager to give it another try.

I've watched several videos on the rolled hem foot and this one finally had the golden egg. Using my serger tweezers was a game changer. I was hemming a bridesmaid dress and it turned out beautifully. Thanks for much!

WOW!!! Thank you🔥You really explained it the best way out of all the videos I’ve watched🤗

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="63">1:03</a> pm thank you for this video. I found everything I need to know about a rolled hem right here and also on your part two video on questions and answers. That’s what I needed.

Great Scott!! This women is correct! I want to hem it alll!! Thank you for teaching me! This new time first time sewing gal is capable of hemming !! Who knew!

I love your personality. Thank you for the help😄

I tried it and it was a success! Thanks for such a great tutorial!

Another option to starting is to sew 3-4 stitches on your fabric without folding it over, just flat on the sewing machine bed. Then lift your pressure foot and needle, pull the fabric back, and use both of your thread tails to manipulate the fabric into the scroll. Once it’s in the scroll correctly, just position the fabric under the foot at the beginning of the seam. The fabric, in my experience, needs to cover the left toe of the foot as you sew forward. These feet are amazing and provide wonderful results. The foot does the heavy lifting, but the preparation is key to success. Generally speaking, the bigger the scroll, the heavier the fabric that they can handle. I use the 6 mm one for flannel, but I’d never use a 3 mm one for flannel. It does take a bit of practice to get used to working with these types of feet, so test out on some 12-18 inch strips to learn. You can also sometimes start on a scrap or leader before moving onto your hem. I find that works as it gives me a little feeding space before the real hem starts. Almost any type of zig zag stitch will give a scalloped edge, especially if you adjust your tension and stitch length. I find the scallops more pronounced on knit fabrics than cotton. The wide opening in your foot gives you some needle position options. Play with those in combination with various stitch designs or patterns for some attractive finishes. One word of caution though, stitches that are stitched by moving forward and backward may not work because the hem behind the foot is already stitched down. Stitches that are executed from back to front will likely work best. Have fun. Thanks for posting this video.

Great tutorial, Stephanie, thank you!

Yes! The awl made all the difference to get that sucker in there! Thank you!

Thanks a lot, Stephanie! Your tutorial is a gem. I know again how to do it, because I did it once upon a time together with my mom and meanwhile I completely forgot the tricks.

I knew there was a reason my machine came with these feet...lol...thanks for the great tutorial! I successfully sewed my first rolled hem. Now I just need to practice.

Great one there! Thank you Ms Stephanie 💝

This is a spot on instructional! I tried it and it worked beautifully. You're right, it'll take some practice to make it perfect. Thank you for your expertise. Subscribed!

Thanks for the tutorial and your personality made it pleasant to watch.👍💖

Yoooo thank you so much for this tutorial!! I got it to work on my first try because of how well you explained it, i feel like i just leveled up in sewing lol i’m so excited to use this in the future! I just happened to have these feet on accident, i didn’t mean to buy them and they’ve been sitting in my sewing box for a while because i never understood how to use them. Wooooooo 🙌🙌🙌

Thank you so much!!! I inherited a machine from my mom with this foot and because of you I figured out how to use it! It looks so much nicer than when I press and pin by hand!! Thank you!!

Oh my goodness! I needed this tutorial 2 days ago lol. I gave up on the rolled hem foot!! I’ll go back now and practice 😁

Thank you for this tutorial! I was gifted a sewing machine by my mother and one of the accessories included was a rolled hem foot. Still getting the hang of it, but I do enjoy the learning process!

I so relate to you. I subscribed because I need to know all the things from you. Ive been sewing for many decades but a girl can still try new things with the help of a friend!

thank you for showing and explaining Stephanie

This is so helpful. And what a cute idea to make that puckered scallop. I recreate vintage style clothes for myself and that will be cute on a collar or something

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you for this tutorial! Saved my sanity!!

I’m glad I found you! You’re a great teacher. I’ve never done a rolled hem. No I think I have.

Thank you! You made that so easy

I’m a beginner here and i will try this one! Thanks!

Thank you!! I know what l was doing incorrectly now. Looking forward to playing with this foot now:)

So helpful, thank you!

Tried this and it worked 🎉

Kristen mentioned your channel. I'm so glad she did! I've subscribed and I'll be back for more tutorials.

Thank you for the bar information (<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="339">5:39</a>). I think it is the key and the secret to success although nobody has mentioned it. You are the first one!

Beautiful 💓 love your tutorials!

Thank you so much for sharing this! I've been struggling for years to decipher the directions included in my vintage Kenmore Sew-By-Color kit. I just started a project, sewing cat trap covers for TNRing feral/community cats, and using my hemmer foot is *really* going to cut down on the time it takes to make one. This is a huge help for me.

I have first used rolled hems in very fine almost sheer crepe fabric. And I actually used sewing pins to gather the fabric around the cone and the guide and I use a pin to keep the start of the stitch in place, since it tends to unroll itself even if you press it. An awl is much easier for fabrics with more weight in them! Great video.

this is so helpful omg. i struggle with clean hems so badly, i always end up just leaving the bottom unfinished at the end of a project so this is a life saver!! thanks for the wonderful video

Thanks for the tutorial got it on second try!

That’s so helpful! I’d love to share this episode and your channel on an episode! It’s fantastic!!!! Thanks Stephanie xx

Never used one before but this helped me "get it".

I’m a seasoned seamstress. I haven’t used one of these in a while so I want to make sure I have all the kinks worked out before I use it on my project!

Thank you for this! I just bought one of these and could not for the life of me work out how to feed it and after watching your vid I got in first go and finally hemmed that bridesmaid dress 👗

You are relatable , subscribed!

This really helped me out, it worked out on the first try 👏🏾🎉

This helped so much! Thank you!

OMG! This is so helpful! Ive been struggling for the past 5 hours trying to hem my top🤣 I wish I watched this video first

Not to be dramatic but YOU HAVE CHANGED MY LIFE!!!

You just saved my life. I was about to lose it trying to figure out how to start my hem!

Thank you! Very helpful.

Great video, thank you! I didn’t realize you could use a special foot for a sewing machine for a rolled hem. …thought I had to use my serger :) I can’t wait to try this!

Amazing tutorial. Am about to purchase a rolled hem foot. Can't wait. ;-)

Thank you for this tutorial. I found you via The Dahlia Sew-ciety. She highly recommended you and I think she was correct in doing so! Thanks. I am in Chicago under a stay at home order so I will be sewing as much as I can.

The best action video friend thanks for your sharing to me ❤️.

I don't typically comment but dang! I had to comment because I finally found a video that explains this soooo well! Thanks ❤️

Thank you so much, this was so helpful !

Worked great - thank you!!

This is fantastic. I avoid doing rolled hems and you have inspired me to take up the challenge. Thank you. Stay safe and well Lynne

Omgosh this is so helpful!!!! Thank you!! ❤

Well! This is going to be my first experience with a rolled hem. I have 4 dresses to hem for a upcoming wedding in May. Glad I have time to practice! Thank you :-)

I am (hehe) making a dress for a wedding - a couple of weeks away. This was FABULOUS!

thanks for this! big help.

Thank you so much for explaining the rolled hem foot in a easy to understand way. I purchased a presser foot set from an online company, and they offered such minimal support and assistance, I was very upset. Plus the rolled hem foot I got was a 3mm, I guess, with the tiniest bar to feed the fabric under, that it simply is not catching the fabric and therefore not working for me. I am going to look at your suggested feet and use your affiliate link. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

This video is so freakin helpful!!! 😊😊😊❤ I just got my foot and definitely needed this video
