Position the hem under the presser foot

with the soft fold resting against wall of the

guide. Be sure the flange of the guide is

between the soft fold and the top of the
hem, as shown.

• Lower the presser foot and begin sewing,

making certain the straight stitches fall

on the edge of the hem and the zig-zag

stitches just pierce the soft fold of the

work. Adjust stitch width if necessary.

While stitching, guide the hem edge in

a straight line and feed the soft fold
evenly against the wall of the guide.

• If layers of fabric are pinned together,

remove pins as you come to them. Do
not sew over pins.
