Great video. I thought I'd let you know that I managed to used your technique on quite a heavy velvet Lycra fabric. To counteract the weight, I used a reel of gardening strimmer wire. It worked a treat, just don't wind it on too narrow a tube. I found a kitchen roll tube was about right. Was making a ballroom dance dress for my daughter.
+Parsley1968 that's awesome! I'm so glad to hear it worked for you and thanks for the tip on the gardening stimmer wire! :)
Thank you for this!
*Perfect and I’ve used it for ballon arches as **enjoyable.fishing** recommend well as other decor with parties. It is strong and will hold up well. It works so good that another decorator stole my roll at an event!*
Wow!!!! You made it look so easy while other videos have made it look harder than it needs to be. I can’t wait to try
I use a rolled hem foot. works great. no trimming needed. nice, clean edge.
You are the best! Your tutorials are clear and extremely helpful. Thanks!
Excited! I thought that I had imagined this. When I was a child, a million years ago, my Mom gave me the most beautiful night gown. My most favorite ever. It was a medium pale yellow with a chiffon overlay that was a bit lighter. The gown had this type of ending at the bottom and at the neckline. It came just past the knee. So adorable.
Hello 👋
@@petererik5762 hello! What's up?
Update, I found this exact gown on eBay.. Just as I remembered. Now it is mine.
@@sherylF5610 hope you are safe from the virus?
Very slow and detailed tutorial for a beginner. Super easy to follow along. Thank you!
Excellent explanation. Thanks for sharing.
THANK you....! Years ago, I wore banana clips in my hair that had "chiffon" bows...made like this with the ruffles.....most of my "bows" are showing wear and I need some more of them Thanks soooo much for a FANTASTIC well done tutorial ! Your directions were well explained etc.
Well dang!!! I ended up here somehow...I was looking for how to sew mitered corners!!! It must have been karma. I have several LONG skirts that I love, that I was procrastinating hemming shorter. Since I moved away from my favourite fishing river several years ago, I also have a tackle box with allll kinds of (now) useless fishing line! Good thing I never throw anything out :) My little universe converged right here! Thanks! I would never have thought of this... !!
yay! I'm so glad fate brought you to this video then. Good luck! :)
This is great! I will definitely try this. Thank you for the clear directions!
Nabeela Najjar I hope it works out for you :)
Hi, thanks for the educational video; it seems like the use of a blow dryer or heatgun may also be other options to get the nylon fishing line to stay in the new curl size, warm regards
I'm pleased to learn something I always wanted to learn,I have the same type sewing machine ,there are so many things that I don't know on this machine, I'm still learning something new every day,thank you very much for sharing
YOUR HANDS AND NAILS ARE INDEED GORGEOUS. You work is, also beautiful.
thanks!
Firstly, your pink polish is beautiful! Secondly, I cant wait to try this for the first time :-)
Hello Brenda
Wow I actually really enjoyed that I’ve never knew how to even achieve that I always learn something new 😂
Damn, you explained everything so well - you make it look easy(which it's so not haha). I make sewing tutorials myself, and I know exactly how hard it can be to make videos that are clear and easy to understand while still being professional with the sewing. Props!
Cherish Red Thank you so much for the kind words! A lot of work goes into our tutorials, as I'm sure you know, so it's so nice to hear when they're appreciated. And even though I've been sewing a long time, I still feel like I'm learning every day! :D
Yea, I can tell the videos would take a lot of time to make. Haha, yea I empathize - I do stop motion for my sewing videos, which takes me SO long, but I think it makes it a lot easier to understand in less time. The time you put on your videos is definitely worth it though, so keep trekking :)

Thanks dear you are doing awesome job i love your teaching style 👍😍😊
This is a lovely tutorial! I've been wanting an effect like this, and I can't wait to try this technique out! Thanks so much for sharing. :)
Wow! Thank you! I've been wanting to learn how to do this for years!
alohachristine, I used a Brother Serger to attach the monophilament. Is faster and neater, especially for large projects.
Hi Jacquiline.... A serger. I hadn't thought of that...but I have one! :) Thanks for the idea! That does sound faster than trying to get it to curl into the rolled hem foot on the machine. But on the serger you don't use the rolled hem foot?
alohachristine ... I hemmed (lettuce hem ruffles) 58 dresses for our show choir a year ago and saw this video. I realized Pincushion's method would take too long. My Brother Serger comes with the foot needed for lettuce hem. Check your machine's manual. Good luck!
you have the prettist hands thats all i could look at love the color of the nails too.
Didn't know this. I'm sure the thickness of the fishing line would make the curves smaller or larger. Thank you.
Great way to do this 👍
Yayyy I have a nice craft idea for this curly baby
This tutorial is so underrated.
its beautiful, thanks! you are so detailed i love it!
danniigurl111 Thanks so much for watching :D
Didn't know this. I'm sure the thickness of the fishing line would make the curves smaller or larger. Thank you.
Nice piping
It’s sooo much easier to leave a wider fabric before sewing.
To trim close to the sew line after sewing, you’ll need to cut the hem longer by an inch or two.
Much easier.
This is a very cute idea It is a different take on the lettuce edging we all made in tshirts years ago =) Very retro, thanks.
👌
great video, your so good at demonstrating the techniques-im one of your followers.
THANK YOU so much for this....... Such clear instructions and a brilliant tutorial.. Brilliant
ThePantomimeDame Thanks, I'm so glad you enjoyed it :)
Wonderful dear.

Thanks so mucu for showing this.
Wow the channel I have been searching for! Everything is so clear to see and understand. Thank you!!
Huzzar Huzzar Thank you so much for the kind words :)
There is a rolled hem foot that makes this a ton easier, and if you have a serger you can do this within seconds :)
What a fun finish!! Love your nail color too ^__^
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed our lesson :D
Full finish ledis jens
Thank you for explaining this!
nice video for sewing a curly hem with fishing line. Thanks.
thanks for watching! :)
that lovely nail polish color really pop when watching this vid~
Good product for ur money saves u in making ur own leaders with it
thank you so much!!!!!! this made my whole day!!
I assume it doesn't need a dot of glue to keep the ends of the fishing line secure. Great idea. Many thanks, love your videos.
Nail polish color is excellent
Very nice, thank you.
What worries me about this type of work is the friction of the foot against the feed dog.
Perhaps soluble sewing paper?❤️
Very nice lesson ,I love it!
incredible job👍
Hello 👋
Great video! How would one wash the garment without affecting the hem?
I just learned something new ! Thank you be much professor :)
Hai thank u for beautiful explanation . ur hand and nails are beautiful
Thank you! ❤👍
Thank you!
Also a blow dryer would work for molding.
Hi,
Thanks for posting this - you make it look so easy! I seem to be losing the curls once I've sewn it into the fabric :-/ .. Any tips on how to fix this ?
A hair dryer is also a very good thing to warm up that fishing line with
Good tutorial, thank you.
Thanks so much for watching :)
your nails are so pretty
I actually have a question. Whats the difference between this curly hem and a hem made from the horse hair braid? Or are they just two possible techniques with the same / similar outcomes?
that's a good question! In my experience, the curly hem will actually bring the hem upwards. So as it curls, it's curling up, like towards the waistline. With a curly hem, it's a good idea to adjust the length, as the skirt could be shorter than expected once it's done. With the horsehair braid, the hemline of a skirt is simply going outwards so that the bottom looks fuller. I hope that makes sense, it's kind of hard to put it in words.
Thank you! That actually makes perfect sense.
If you dip the ends of your fishing line into clear nail polish and allow to dry. This gets rid of the sharp end and your stitch will hold the end better when starting.
I agree they are beautiful
A cording foot? Keeps it perfectly centered under the zig zag. Mine was less than $4. Nice video! Thanks❣️
Try this, if you have overlock machine set it up for roll hem lift up the knife,put hem down first lie your fishing line on top take care are edges and all in one pass
Thank you, I always wonder how this hem was made, it doesn't look too hard!
you can do it! :D
I just want your nailpaint!!!😍
Awesome sewing technique
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
This is a good idea.
Great idea
I am going to try it
Oh, so that zig zag was going right over the edge? I thought the needle always had to be going into the fabric at all times. I like that look, and I love circle skirts, so I may try this with thinner fishing line.
Lavenderrose73 Nope, because the top thread is looping with the bobbin thread even if it's not going through any fabric. If you try it, please post a pic on our fb wall :D
It might be awhile, but I have 2 skirts made and 2 still in progress. Now that the temperature's dropping finally, I'm hoping to get them done quickly... after I get some other things taken care of, like my next test out of the way! Lol
Very good job!!..
Hello from Morocco,
Thank you very much for sharing! !
you could use piping foot
Does the fishing line go through the washer and dryer ok? Does horse hair braid was and dry well?
+Leslie Elmore You can get it wet no problem but the heat is what sets the curl. If you throw it in the dryer, you'll more than likely lose the curly hem. horsehair braid is normally washable and dry cleanable. I'd probably still line dry instead of throwing it in the dryer.
Great Tutorial
gracias no se inglés pero te entiendo muy bien muchas gracias por hacer estos vídeos
HI
Great video ! thanks
Hello how are you doing my friend
Thank I just learn something new will done I am going to try that.
Omg thanks. I need this.
So helpful! Thank you.
Dylan Stout you can do it! :)
I did this and it came out really good, but then I went and added a trim to it, and it sort of lost the original curliness. I somehow doubt that rolling the whole hem around a paper roll would get it back to how it was. You must have faced this issue! Please, how do I go about fixing this?
really liked it
I love it , how nice.
lorna johnson thanks for watching! :)
Absolutely beautiful nails
it look so easy. Thank you
Beautiful
You forgot to mention that you want monofilament fishing line, the cheapest one will do just fine. If you buy braided line it will be/ stay straight.
Hi, just wondering if I can sew this method on non biased cut fabric.
Love love love your nails. Love your sewing tutorials more!
it might not curl as much if it's not cut on the bias
Could use a hairdryer to heat the line
Very nice mam
This tutorial is amazing, love it. The question below about washing will it hold ?
it's recommended to do this on fabric like organza which probably is dry clean only so it's probably not wise to throw something with this technique in the washer and dryer
@@ProfessorPincushion thank you for the information.
Beautiful hand
such a beautiful nails love it
That was a great tutorial.
And how would you finish off the ends of the curly hem?
Do you leave a small tip of line sticking out to prevent the serge from unravelling?
I just overlap the ends and sew over it
I think I need some clarification, I'm not too sure if the needle goes past the edge of the fabric when sewing in the fishing line, or if the outside zigzag snags on a tiny amount of fabric that wraps it over automatically...
+cheuini the needle does go just past the edge of the fabric
I was wondering can I do this on felt say for a Christmas tree skirt????..thanks for the video..love the idea and it looks great
***** I think felt might be too heavy of a fabric to have the same effect. You can try it on a sample and see what happens though. let me know.
Thanks so much but I have brothers simple machines hoping to try it out 🙂
