Sewing: Using a Pressing Hem and Casing Guide


Watch this video at http://bit.ly/hemguides.
The Crafty Gemini explains how to use (and to make your own hem pressing template). We’ve created our version of the hem template for you.


                     For a downloadable pdf to click here.  Once the PDF is downloaded, print landscape                             style at 80%.  Double check the measurements for accuracy as sizing shifts in images                           etc. as they are downloaded to different computers.



To use the hem pressing guide, place the card stock on the wrong side of the fabric, fold over the fabric to the pressing line and press it with the iron.



Using the guide should result in crisper and more accurate hems or casings.
