Janome Blindhem Foot (G), 7mm (Not Adjustable)

Blind hemming can sometimes be a little bit tricky so the blind hem foot goes some way to helping improve this technique. The foot has a metal guide in the center and three grooves on the underside. During blind hemming, the fold of the fabric fits snugly against the guide in the foot for accuracy while the groove underneath help to prevent unnecessary slipping. The needle swings over the metal guide creating slack in the upper tension so that the pick of the stitch is almost invisible.

Finish your hems professionally with the easy-to-use Blind Hem foot. This foot creates the same invisible hem seen on ready-made dress pants, skirts, dresses, and even curtains. Simply install the foot, switch to a blind hem stitch, and line up your fold with the white guide bar.

Do you want an invisible hemline? Use this foot to provide accuracy and neat, flawless results.

1. Attach the Blind hem foot G to your machine.
2. Select the blind hem stitch which looks like this – straight , straight, straight, zig-zag….

    

   

    

3. Turn up your hem the required amount and finger press or hold with clover clips.
4. Turn the fabric over and bring the top towards you as you create an “s” fold in the fabric leaving 1/4 – 3/8 of an inch exposed – as in pic below:

    

   

    

5. Place the fabric wrong side up under the needle & foot with the fabric fold up against the guide on the Blind Hem foot.
6. Lower the presser foot and turn the hand wheel towards you to see where the needle drops. It should barely “catch” the edge of the fold with the swing of the zig-zag. If it catches too much fabric, you will see the stitching on the right side. If too little, then the hem may not be very secure so a bit like Goldilocks and The 3 Bears: it needs to be “just right”.  The straight stitches go onto the turn up of the hem and wont be seen on the front.
7. Sew all the way along your hemline for a great invisible hem.

TIPS:

• When sewing a blind hem, be sure to look at the guide on the foot and not at the needle otherwise the right swing of the needle may not hit the fold of the fabric.
• The fabric and thread choice does play a part in the success of this technique: Try to match your thread colour as close to the fabric colour as possible or use invisible thread/monofilament. You will find that thicker fabrics such as knits, suiting, coat fabrics, etc give better results than very thin or sheer fabrics.
• When sewing on lightweight fabrics, choose a finer thread and needle to create an “invisible” hem.
• To reduce the amount of stretch when sewing a blind hem with knit fabrics, chnage the foot pressure to 2.
