Hemming With Lace
Most of the popular kinds of lace edging
and insertion can be applied with the foot
hemmer. It is an excellent way to trim chil
dren’s clothes and to finish lingerie hems.
Lace Applied Over Hem
• Fold and start hem in usual way.
• Starting about 1 inch down from end of
lace, place selvage under the needle, then
lower the needle to hold lace firmly.
• Raise hemmer foot slightly and slip lace
under back part of foot.
• Stitch slowly, guiding fabric with right hand
and lace with left hand. Take care not to
stretch the lace.
Lace Applied Under Hem
When using lace underneath the fold of a
hem, the procedure is the same as when mak
ing a hemmed seam (page 21). Slip the lace
in from the left as you would the second piece
of fabric.
This method is used where a neat finish is
desired on both sides of the material.
