Excellent video . That’s how my mom who was a seamstress taught me how to hand sew and press when I was a young girl . Love how neat the end results are . Thank you for making this available to all.
Glad to hear you enjoyed the video!🤗 This is one of those techniques that is definitely worth the effort to make it by hand - the results always speak for themselves!💯🙌
Thank you for another excellent video. You are a pleasure to learn from. One tip that I have found extremely helpful, in hand sewing, is to run my thread against a small chunk of beeswax, prior to threading it into the needle/beginning to sew. This prevents the thread from knotting up, while sewing. All the best sent your way
Even better tip then the beeswax one is to always thread your needle with the end you have cut off the spool and not with the other end (the one you pick first); Trust me on this one, it was life changing for me! And if you do this one you can skip the beeswax part. Also, find a thread that is suitable for hand sewing becouse some threads are just not good at all for hand sewing, only for machine. I have found such a thread to be Mettler. It’s excellent for machine sewing but horrible for basting. Maybe they have thread for basting too, I don’t know this. But to be sure, better buy basting thread.
Wow. This takes me back to how I was shown how to hem a garment when I was a girl. As I got older, I got lazier. Beautiful technique.
This is one of very few techniques I prefer doing by hand (instead of using a machine) - the results are so worth the effort!🤗
I prefer doing by hand too. Thank you

Where do you get the iron cover. I love it. Thank you for the techniques.
Excellent! I’ve hemmed similar to this, but never folded the fabric like this - will definitely hem like this in future.
Folding hem like that makes process so much faster/effective!🤗 Definitely worth trying🤗
Great Macha Allah
Actually i always use this manner but revers way
beautiful
Very similar to hem stitch mom taught me 60 years ago!
Your iron cover, I haven't seen one like that in years! Where did you find it?
How secure are these? I tend to wear full length skirts, and it'd like to make one for special occasions with an invisible hem.
This is very secure - the stitches are close to each other, they hold fabric very well👌
