I don't often feel compelled to leave a comment on RUclips videos. But I wanted to personally thank you for doing this tutorial. Camera angles were really good, your instructions were extremely clear and concise. Even though I've never tried something like this before, I feel prepared with enough information to give it an attempt and have a decent outcome. Thank you much for taking the time to do the tutorial.
This is the best tutorial I think I've ever seen on RUclips. Never once did I feel as if I didn't understand something, every single camera view was perfect to show the specific instructions and results, and the explanations were so concise there left no room for misunderstanding. You have an absolute gift for teaching, sir. Thank you so much for this!
I agree. The camera and closeup video was wonderful. And Kenneth's very slow narration of what he’s doing made it really great. Don’t know if or when I’ll have a garment to use this on, but when I do I’ll be prepared! (Actually, I may just find a pattern so I can do this! 😄) Thanks 👍
Amen! Just a phenomenal example of how to teach through the medium of video! Thoughtfully produced, clearly explained, well filmed, and even includes an interesting historical example. I’m so impressed with Kenneth’s ability to get everything right!
I’m 81 years old and I’ve never been brave enough in all of my years of sewing to try a shear hem! In fact I’ve made it a point to stay away from shear fabric altogether! Thank you for the excellent tutorial! I’m going to give it a try!!
@@user-oo8ei4lj6s seriously, a lot of the times these things are being sewn by underpaid laborers in workshops. Next time you put any clothing on appreciate how well made it is and the fact that every stitch was by a human hand somewhere regardless of how cheap your clothes are.
@andromeda6477 I would have thought they would need a basic knowledge of the craft skills required.... but still the skills required on these well made garments are amazing.
@andromeda6477not so, my grandmother was great designer, it was those day about complete garderobes, all in certain style, she was known 300 km away, but i saw her bisy with jacket sleaves stitch by stich, she never left that to others, so many fine work, its not valued anymore nowadays
This is an excellent tutorial. Many years ago, I made my daughter a flower girl's dress for my brother in laws wedding. He brought me the pattern and fabrics. I had no idea how to sew with sheer fabric, satins, or which needles to use. But with his encouragement, I played with scraps of each fabric and tried different needles and threads until I was ready to start making the dress. Back then, there was no RUclips to refer to, like this video, for a hem for the chiffon layers. I tried the usual foled hem, but that looked awful! I tried several different hemming stitches on my machine until I found that the zigzag stich would draw the edge of the fabric into the stich, rolling it quickly. But this left some frayed threads peeking out. So I cut the 12 yards of these threads and went over the edge a second time with the zigzag stich, making it look clean and like I knew what I was doing. I was so proud of my work. I even received a compliment from the family "seamstress" of, "Oh, you used a french rolled hem." Or at least I think it was a compliment. Which I answered with a very faint, "Ahumm!" And said nothing about my struggles. I would have really benefited from this video back when making the dress. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I enjoyed the video and the memories it brought back for me.
I thank you for tutoring all of us. My mother had no patience to share her wonderfully artistic talents nor was I allowed to view from her shoulder. It is the kindness of most talented sewists / tailors as you that gives us the courage to try and succeed. Godspeed. Thank you.
@@kdknyc As much as one loves sewing isn't it more efficient to just use a non-fraying fabric. You're so masterful, but also think how time consuming it is to do two passes and hand cutting on top of that. Also please add "buy me a coffee" link for people to show their gratitude.
@@JennaHasm If I'm working with a polyester or nylon fabric a stencil cutter (heat tool) is an excellent choice to just cut the edge and have it not fray. If you're dealing with a non-woven that's also an option--but there are times that the desired fabric requires hemming. And, really, this takes far less time than a hand-rolled hem. Different fabrics, different methods.
OMG yours looks better than the original, very clear and concise explanation without so much unnecessary detour, I loved it, I learned something that I always thought was impossible to do at home with a regular sewing machine, I really appreciate it,
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I have always shied away from sheer fabric for skirts because of not being able to get a beautiful hem line. But now I’m going to try again!
It's such a treat to get a video like this! I can tell you're good teacher and that you love teaching. I really appreciated all the camera angles and skipping forward when you've thoroughly shown the work. I can't wait to try this technique, thank you for so much sharing your knowledge with us!
Absolutely brilliant l was spellbound rite from the start your instructions were clear and concise...l wish I knew this 10 years ago when i was altering the hem on my daughter's tea length wedding dress....she is only 5ft 1inch tall and it needed shortened....there were several lawyers of very soft tull... luckily I knew someone who used to own a bridal shop and l was able to borrow a machine that done the job for me but had l known this i would have been less stressed....thank you again ..your tutorial is the best one l have ever seen....
Gosh, this is the video I’ve been searching for! I have a difficult sheer fabric dress that I’ve spent months trying to get a nice hem on, and failing..Now I know how to sew it! Thank you so much!
Wonderful. Thank you my mother was a seamstress and women came to the house. One client was a Congress man’s secretary ? She brought a chiffon full gown to be hemmed. O mom sat for 😢😢 days rolling the hem by hand . 13:30
I am so glad I saw this tutorial. I am making little girls tutus and didn't like the idea of no hem but I had no idea what to do. Thank you so much for sharing.
When I watch vids like this, it mks me appreciate all the more when I do come across fine craftsmanship such as this. Many ppl hv absolutely no clue what goes into crafting such a fine garment. It's difficult I think these days to find a quality piece that's actually worth the price and doesn't just "look good". Couture is an underrated art.
Many, many thanks for this wonderful tutorial. I have a project I’ve been agonizing over/avoiding- this hem technique saves the day!!! Truly beautiful and incredibly timely. Thank you again!❤❤❤
Wow!!! Been sewing for years and was amazed with your technique.. Your tutorial was brilliant and I can’t wait to try this. Thank you from Scotland via Los Angeles…
Thank you so much Kenneth that was so informative and beautifully executed. It was wonderful to see the original work. What a beautiful finish to a delicate garment ❤
I am so happy I spotted this tutorial while scrolling through the line up of videos. (I was planning on watching a Yoga Nidra video recommended by my daughter and when I went back to watch it, I saw this video). I was so impressed with your teaching style…I was mesmerized and had to watch the entire video. You are a such a gifted teacher and sewer. Your voice is clear, easy to listen to and is perfectly paced to allow viewers to follow your instructions. Since I am a visual learner, it’s vital for me to “watch” tutorials rather than simply read directions. Your camera angles and close ups make all the difference in this video. I’ll save this tutorial to watch again so that I can watch it while I try to duplicate this technique on my sewing machine. Thanks so much for sharing your expertise in sewing this rolled hem. I’ll search for more of your sewing tutorials to watch. Great job, 10+ out of 10 ⭐️’s!
That is magic! Thank you for this wonderful sewing tutorial/tip. I really appreciate it and working with sheer, delicate fabrics will not be so intimidating. You are the best!
Excellent tutorial I remember learning this in my class. Because when I started learning design, I was a hand sewer I like the slow movement of my grandmothers, treadles sewing machine, which I inherited because no one else wanted it
Same story. Learned on grandma’s treddle. Control was terrific.although I have many other machines, i’ve always kept that treddle. I’m in my 70’s, recently purchased a juki 2010!
Oh wow! This is so awesome! I'm looking at the silk and chiffon scarves I bought a while ago and I see the tiny perfect stitches. They've lasted for at least ten years or more and the hem is so professional. Thank you for such a valuable lesson on fine roll hems.
Thank you so much for making this video. So many times I’ve tried and failed to create the fine hem I wanted to see - I’ve numerous abandoned projects to prove this. I can now go back and complete my work knowing the quality will be excellent and most importantly it’ll have a consistent finish. Can’t wait to see more of your work. Thankyou 😊
Awesome information! Sheer materials have always intimidated me, especially for the type of hem you’ve shown here which is exactly the type I need to use on my fairy doll wings!! Your video was great and was also a good reminder on the frequent need to press the stitching!
I’m not currently needing this, but saw the video and thought “always good to learn something new”. Very good video! Explained everything clearly and gave some useful tips. Well done!
Great tutorial, great camera work. I like the way you go off camera at intervals to complete a step following your explanation. The whole technique is vitally important to know when working with fine fabrics and the result is wonderful.
Thank you for sharing this fabulous tutorial. It was so clear and concise! Sheer fabrics have always frightened me! I am going to try this on some scrap fabric.
If only I could upload a picture... you'd be proud of me 😊. First time sewing at this level, and I'm amazed! You are a great teacher! Thanks for your generosity and time doing this tutorial. Many blessings your way 🦋

Beautiful work. Thank you so much. I have beautiful wedding dresses that I purchased from Salvation Army and a huge discount , so I bought them ALL. Now you have shown me how to do hems for other projects. Again, thank you.
Just subscribed. I have been sewing since 12. I have also done fashion désigne ( all self thought) This is the best tutorials, i have ever seen. Knowing is not enough, you have to be able to convay what you know properley so your students can benefit. I can tell you are a great artist and a great teacher. Wish you success❤🎉🎉🎉
I can’t wait to try this! I’ve been sewing since I was 15 and I’ve always been intimidated by sheer fabrics! Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge, simply amazing results!! 🫡
Literally everything about this tutorial is amazing! You have an incredible grasp of how to teach through the medium of video, from planning the steps to choosing your angles, recording your voice, keeping your instructions clear and simple, giving us an interesting historical example for comparison, I’m quite in awe of your facility with **both** arts of fine garment finishing techniques and RUclips tutorial making 😁
Oh my goodness!! Why am I only discovering your channel now?! I am a self-taught seamstress and I have always struggled with the hem of these fine fabrics. Thank you! You are a genius!! Love your tutorial. You made it look SO easy!!
Thankyou for showing this. You make it look manageable and achievable. These tricks are the ones that elevate our making to a standard that we can take pride in. ❤
Kenneth, you angel of patience. All I could think of was the sheer amount of time to hem enough of that fabric for a pleated skirt and I felt faint. A wonderful tutorial, immediately subscribed.
I am So grateful for your excellent tutorial! I am hemming a wedding dress for my daughter. This is the layer of fabric on her dress I was struggling to understand how to finish. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I subscribed immediately! Your tut is as detailed, fine and beautifully crafted as that hem. Thank you so much! I very much look forward to learning more with you.
Lovely work and your technique is perfectly shown and explained. I used to buy commercial quantities of silk scarves from Paris, which were all hand rolled and this is a terrific machine version, yielding a similar hem. I'm compelled to try this myself... Thanks so much.
Absolutely the best video I've seen on you tube! The very best camera angles along with precise, to the point instructions was fantastic!! I subscribed to your channel. So well done, thank you!
Have to admit, I've tired this type of edge before with very little success. Your tutorial is VERY good and I'll try it again with this new knowledge. Thank you!
😊☺️😊Absolutely wonderful. I actually believe that your video camera skills are as amazing as your sewing skills. I could have been standing next to you and I wouldn’t have been able to see as much detail as what you’ve managed to capture on your well-placed camera. 👏👏 Thank you for sharing!
Ken I did not put it together at first but you did one of the best tutorials on sewing a conceal zipper. Hands down best video. This video as well is excellent. You are such a wonderful teacher
Thank you so much. I come from the quilting world and have no knowledge of garment sewing. This was a very well made tutorial for a type of fabric that has always stumped me. I guess I can stop banging my head againet a wall, trying to feed flimsy fabric through my rolled hem foot lmao
Thank you Sweetheart for this so professional video. I make lots of chiffon tops to cover the shoulders of ladies wearing strapless or who simply wish to cover their shoulders and upper arms but not completely opaque. Can't wait to try your method and I so so much thank you for that. My daughter's boutique is Curve Theory in Mississauga, ON and her customers love my unique tops.
I have been in a muddle trying to figure out how to hem a skirt that my doll artist friend has been requesting out of a very light sheer fabric and you have just delivered me the solution 😊😊
Wow! So cool. I'm an intermediate sewer. I've only been taught by way of my high school home ec teacher 80 million years ago. So, I always love learning the real tricks of the trade.
I don't often feel compelled to leave a comment on RUclips videos. But I wanted to personally thank you for doing this tutorial.

Me too!!!! Cheers
I wish I had seen this before I hemmed a couple scarves! Next time!!
Lmaooo

I got paid big bucks for a rolled hem (wedding dress) sure hope your mother did.
Rolled hem by hand looks better and tbh it doesn’t seem to take much longer than this laborious machine technique.

There is a presser foot for holding the thread in position for the zig-zag. I think it's called a cording foot.
I was going to mention that, too. I think I have several for my vintage machines. This is something I might actually use one of those for!
Any idea why the need to hold the thread at 45 degree?
@@jenfessionsxo4615 It easily puts it in position to be caught by the stitching. If you hold it flat it tends to slither side to side.

I have never known how to do this... until now! Thank you for the clear and concise tutorial!
Absolutely the best video I've seen on you tube! The very best camera angles along with precise, to the point instructions was fantastic!! I subscribed to your channel. So well done, thank you!
I think yours was better finished than the gown's. Bravo!
Have to admit, I've tired this type of edge before with very little success. Your tutorial is VERY good and I'll try it again with this new knowledge. Thank you!
😊☺️😊Absolutely wonderful. I actually believe that your video camera skills are as amazing as your sewing skills. I could have been standing next to you and I wouldn’t have been able to see as much detail as what you’ve managed to capture on your well-placed camera. 👏👏 Thank you for sharing!
Thanks!
So much better than trying to do a rolled hem with a serger on sheer fabrics! Thank you for sharing.
I have read your articles in Threads magazine. I didn't know you had a RUclips channel. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and talent. 🥰
Ken I did not put it together at first but you did one of the best tutorials on sewing a conceal zipper. Hands down best video. This video as well is excellent. You are such a wonderful teacher
@@DiannaAtherton Thank you. We have my friend Lynda Maynard to thank for that method. She was kind enough to allow me to demonstrate it.
Your teaching and demo are the best I have watched on utube, will now have a go on a bridesmaid dress.
I'm just beginning to learn how to sew garments and this is an instant sub for me, thank you so much for this (and your other) tutorial(s)!
This is incredible work both in the sewing and the instruction! Thanks!
Thank you so much. I come from the quilting world and have no knowledge of garment sewing. This was a very well made tutorial for a type of fabric that has always stumped me. I guess I can stop banging my head againet a wall, trying to feed flimsy fabric through my rolled hem foot lmao
Lovely work! Excellent instruction.
Thank you Sweetheart for this so professional video. I make lots of chiffon tops to cover the shoulders of ladies wearing strapless or who simply wish to cover their shoulders and upper arms but not completely opaque. Can't wait to try your method and I so so much thank you for that. My daughter's boutique is Curve Theory in Mississauga, ON and her customers love my unique tops.
King! Awesome professor! taugh me how to construct slamming tailored jacket so many years ago. I still use that technique today.
Beautiful, and very nicely explained! Thanks
I have been in a muddle trying to figure out how to hem a skirt that my doll artist friend has been requesting out of a very light sheer fabric and you have just delivered me the solution 😊😊
Thank you for sharing this information about sheer hemming. I have some projects in mind after watching your tutorial.
God bless and thank you
Wow! So cool. I'm an intermediate sewer. I've only been taught by way of my high school home ec teacher 80 million years ago. So, I always love learning the real tricks of the trade.
You are succinct and authentic! Thank you for sharing your talent.❤
Beautifully executed and demonstrated! Thank you!
