Hem Techniques Make
A Bio Difference
BY PATRICIA SCOTT

The way you finish the raw
edge of your hem before
turning can make all the
difference in the world be-
tween a smooth. invisible
hem and an obvious one.
And, different hem finishes
require different stitches.
Before turning your hem,
you must decide how you are
going to finish the raw edge.
because the finish may add
70 or decrease the width Of
the hem. The finish you
choose will depend on the
type Of fabric you are using.
If the fabric is very heavy.
use either the pinked or seam
binding finish. If the fabric
is sheer, turn under the raw
edge and edge stitch or hand
roll for very delicate fabrics
such as chiffon. If the fabric
ravelS a great deal. use seam
binding or turn under edge
and edge stitch. For hens
on suits and coats or holding
down facings, the catch
stitch finish Is used. For a
really invisible hem the
French tailor's hem is used.
Illustrated. are six Of the
most important hem finishes,
and how to make them.
Figure l Pinked: Stitch
along the raw edge of fab
ric. Pink edges. Turn hem
desired amount and pin or
baste about one inch from
pinked edge. Turn edge back
u inch and slip-stitch to
skirt. catching only one or
two threads.
Figure 2 Turned Under:
Turn edge to wrong side and
edge stitch. Turn hem de-
sired amount and sew with
small hemming stitches.
Figure ; Seam Binding:
Pin one edge of seam bind
ing to raw hem edge on right
side of fabric. Allow slight
ease In tape. If it is too tight,
1t will make the hemline
pucker, Stitch binding to
hem very close to the inner
edge Of the binding. To fin
ish raw binding ends, turn
under the end of the bind
ing to overlap the raw bind
ing edge where you started.
Turn hem. and sew with tiny
hemming stitches.
Figure 4 Hand Rolled: Roll
edge toward you. Slide needle
in the roll as you slip stitch
hem in place. Catch only one
thread of garment as you
stitch.
Figure 5 French TaiIOr's
Hem: Pink the raw edge as
illustrated or even better,

the desired amount and pin

The tremendous response"
Of the public to the emergency
campaign brought the total COL
lected up to $50.050, only $3.50
short of the $50, 900 goal.
UGF officials expect the re-

$4,000 is a minimum figure
needed to meet the needs Of
the jobless. The plight of many
families has been made even
worse by the winters unusually

Many of the UGFs biggest
supporters today found letters
on their desks asking for help
in the emergency campaign.
Their response in tomorrow's

well bring collections up over

the collections to date to pub
