What a delight to watch, listen and learn. No awful music, just a quiet chat about fabric. I love the comments about what “won’t do”! I’m definitely subscribing. I can wait to find out what else you have uploaded.

@colin101981 9 месяцев назад

I have a vintage 830 record which is 5mm I believe. I used this technique to make my wife severa scarfs, of which she's a huge fan. They turned out very well and it's now my go to technique.

@angelakanetv 9 месяцев назад

This video was in fact filmed on a Bernina 730 Record that I had since new - shows my age! I very reluctantly sold it recently to streamline my workroom. Wonderful machines and perfect for sewing delicate material. Hang on to it! I'm glad to hear you are using the technique. Thanks so much for your comment.

@nancydegeorge475 6 лет назад

Hello there from Australia. I just did this to my lovely floral chiffon scarf. I curved the two ends for a softer look. It's turned out well but I think I may have 'forced' it around the curve. It's a tiny bit puckered. I pressed it with a warm iron and I'm pretty pleased with it. My machine stitch width is 5mm to 7mm Thank you for the excellent and clear tutorial. I love you accent 👍👏

@coralrose6506 6 лет назад

This was absolutely wonderful I am going to try this like you I don’t like the other methods. Thank you for sharing.

@marymary5494 5 лет назад

Thank you Angela. An exquisite finish. I am going to try it on a chiffon overlay tunic I’m working on. 😊

@irishagold 11 лет назад

Thank you, Angela for the reply. Honestly, I didn't even think about this "problems" with wide width machines. Something to keep in mind!

@SaunWhee 11 лет назад

I have a bernina virtuoso 160 that is a 5mm machine...I also have Singer 7 and 9 mm machines. Thanks the hemming demo...Makes me appreciate my old bernina more now!

@jackyf3505 5 лет назад

I have a 4-year old Pfaff with a 9mm stitching width but my true loves are my three old Berninas (one 1020 and two 1130s) that all have 5mm maximum stitching width - just perfect for this technique! I've been fairly unhappy using my overlocker for rolled hems on chiffon which I find often pull off the edge of the fabric so I'm delighted to have another option that I think I may find both easier and more aesthetically pleasing. Thank you for sharing it.

@kimdkus 7 лет назад

Angela, you always have the best ideas. I'm going to try this on the weekend. Thanks!!!

@celiahaddon4087 5 лет назад

What an excellent, thorough and detailed explanation of this technique. Thank you Angela.

@elisantonieta Год назад

thank you for posting this. clearly challenging to sew exactly around the edge, neatly, but worth learning. I appreciate the respect you have for the fabric, for its quality and performance.

@angelakanetv 9 месяцев назад

BLTN Sorry for late response. You don't have to be too accurate about it as the thread wraps the edge so as long as you roughly get the edge in the middle rather than having the whole foot on the fabric, it will work. Thank you for commenting.

@angelakanetv 11 лет назад

No, this is what I like about this method. The first time round can be a bit hit and miss on delicate fabrics. When you go around the second time it sort of collects it all together and makes this rather 'unspecified' edge. I like it because the zigzag-look disappears and as I say in the video, it just looks organic. Really good for chiffon type fabrics. I'll do it a different way on the wider stitch machine. Coming soon. Thanks so much for commenting.

@SIMKINYX 5 лет назад

I WISH I had a sawing machine. Recently made a scarf for my mom and had to roll-stitch the edges by hand. It took forever!

@MAGiQUEAF 9 месяцев назад

Thank you for theese valuable tips ❤

@aliciafigueroa4001 5 лет назад

Thank you so much!!!! I needed a meathod to finish all the edged on a silk organza gown I designed, this is Amazing, cant wait to try it.....I have a brother ls-1217 ... not sure how many millimeters it is.

@zanzibar4482 3 года назад

Brilliant advice. Thank you

@angelakanetv 11 лет назад

Thank you very much!

@jacquiee6814 4 года назад

Hi Angela thank you so much for your video. I made a scarf using your method. It was so easy and looks great! Your right if you go over your stitching it does self correct any flaws! My partner told me it looks professionally made/high end. Not sure about that but I am certainly delighted. 🌸

@ElizabethCarterMedia 2 года назад

This is amazing thank you so much! I've purchased some lovely shirts from the charity shops that where cheap enough and I loved the fabric so much that I wanted to make scarves out of them. ⭐

@susiedunham-kt9qy Год назад

FABULOUS!!!

@MAGiQUEAF 9 месяцев назад

Thank you for showing how the hems look like in comparison. I did not in now about this option and used to dread hemming silk/silky scarfs. Lovely tutorial ❤

@NatJ4reform 3 года назад

Beautiful 👍👍

@emyblack3540 Год назад

Thank you Angela, this is less daunting for a beginner like me who is too scared to do rolled hems or whatever you call that other method. I saw a lady do the rolled hem in another video, she was rolling it by hand as she sewing along, WOW, I don't have that skill!! lol I will attempt to make my first scarf right now!! The lovely chiffon fabrics I ordered from Minerva just arrived!!

@lindaadamskaraoke8285 Год назад

Beautiful finish! Thank you so much!! I make doll clothes for collectors, and do a lot of finishes on fine chiffons and silks. This is a wonderful technique!

@lindaadamskaraoke8285 Год назад

I sew on a 1966 Pfaff 262. It might be a 5mm, but I’m not sure!

@wendyb7993 3 года назад

Thanks Angela I’ll give this fab technique a try love it 🥳🥳

@richellemahoney8727 9 лет назад

Great for hemming scarve!!! Thank you.

@angelakanetv 9 лет назад

Richelle Mahoney Thank you. I'm glad you like this simple technique.

@janeteaglelake 3 года назад

This tutorial was just what I was looking for - I have bought some chiffon and silk for scarves but was struggling with the best way to finish the edges, nothing seemed right. I ended up doing one by hand but even that looks too "clunky" and my hand-sewing isn't the best. Thanks, I will try this.

@emilykeenansmith4838 5 лет назад

I don’t know what mm my machine is. Thank you for this helpful video. You have such a lovely voice, so clear.

@arina15 6 лет назад

Thank you, Angela, for this wonderful video! I recently got into doll making and I was struggling with hemming the delicate fabrics for a doll's dress. I'm going to buy a used 5mm machine just for this purpose.

@cocodoo 5 лет назад

Thank you so much. I will try :)

@robertawestbrooks1650 4 года назад

@tonyadelcastillo5351 10 лет назад

I tried the other ways and was not happy with what I produced. You're right, the results from other methods are not suitable for all uses with chiffon. I'm excited to try what you have shared. Glad to know my 7 mm machine is ideal for this project! Thanks Angela.

@angelakanetv 10 лет назад

Hello Tonya, Thank you very much for commenting. Everyone has favourite methods of doing things. It's a question of always testing things out and this method works well for me.

@zanzibar4482 3 года назад

@JulieHansberry 10 лет назад

Love the video. I just bought some gorgeous chiffon and now I know how to finish it. I'm confused by what you mean by a 5mm, 6mm or 7mm machine? Can you please explain?

@angelakanetv 10 лет назад

Hi Debbie, Can you rescue your skirt by trimming off the hem and trying again? The bias is always difficult and the secret is to stabilise the edge in some way. Watch my follow up movie, I start with a straight stitch. Do your best to stitch along the bias (leaving a wide seam allowance for trimming afterwards) without stretching the fabric. Ease the fabric into the foot then trim and continue with the zigzag. You can tryt strips of dissolvable fabric to lay on top. Hope that helps

@ellenm4839 7 месяцев назад

I have NO IDEA what mm my machine is so you have taught me a great deal even by just now knowing that I need to find that out!

@ritella59 11 лет назад

Thanks Angela, I thought I understood that but then you were talking about 5 mm sewing machine and that made me confused... I joined you site few days ago ... very interesting and helpful. Thanks for sharing your knowledge... Ciao !!!

@keribell2046 10 лет назад

@nancybolin8 2 года назад

I'm going to try with my friend's vintage 1968-70 machine soon. It looks to be about a 5 mm.

@angelakanetv 8 лет назад

Thanks Seema, Glad you have found this useful. Thank you for commenting.

@bookdesignandhorses 4 года назад

I use a 5mm machine by Elna. I like your comparisons on types of edging. I am considering using this edge on a bias cut silk dress neckline, armholes and hem as I want to avoid a stiff hem.

@luliela6469 10 лет назад

amazing

@jfree1998 10 лет назад

I have an antique Morse fotomatic I believe they are 5mm. Its a work horse and weighs a ton. Your videos are always so helpful thanks so much for posting them, its great inspiration.

@angelakanetv 10 лет назад

Hi, Thank you so much for your comment. Yes, many of the old machines are fantastic to use. Sewing machines never really go out of date. I find I rarely use all the fancy features of my modern machine.

@angelakanetv 11 лет назад

Thank you for your very generous comment. I believe you never stop learning when you are creative. We sewers can be too concerned to do things the proper way rather than experimenting and finding the way that suits us. There's a lot of innovation today in clothes manufacture - extreme mixing of different cloths, unusual colour mixes, creative construction. There are no rules really. I hope I am encouraging sewers to just try ideas out and have fun! And have something original to wear too!

@angelakanetv 9 лет назад

Emma Newton Yes, it's a great edging for a kaftan. Have fun on the beach! Thank you for commenting

@JulieHansberry 10 лет назад

And I just saw the answer below. I'll have to check mine and see what it is!

@angelakanetv 11 лет назад

I have a relatively modern Bernina - Artista 200 with a 9mm width stitch. Initially I played around with all the features but to be honest the wide foot and wide hole in the plate is more of hindrance for everyday sewing. I bought a 5mm plate and a straight stitch plate plus a narrow foot for it. I still find the width of the feed dog not as efficient as my old 5mm machine. Progress?? Thanks for commenting

@angelakanetv 11 лет назад

I hate to get rid of old machinery. They really don't make them as well today. My grandmother worked as a liner in the fur trade and sewed on her old treadle fur machine until she died, at 92. This did an amazingly fine overlock stitch and she made all her underwear on it. I do wish I still had it today! Thanks for commenting.

@longfellow1130 5 лет назад

Very jealous of that lovely 5mm machine.

@GINGER70HINTZ Год назад

Wow today with this video I learnt the word Jabot. Nice video btw.

@angelakanetv 11 лет назад

Hello Rita, I think I say in the video that I use a half width zigzag and a normal sewing stitch length but I will add an annotation I think to make this clearer. Thanks so much for your greetings from Rome!

@lucarter3468 4 года назад

Never heard of this method but am eager to try. I also don't understand 5mm, 6mm or 7mm machine.Thanks.

@fashion_maker475 11 лет назад

@freerangegirl 4 года назад

This is great-thank you! Would you use the same technique on silk charmeuse?

@lydiashemain9746 7 лет назад

Hi Angela, I wish I had stumbled on this video earlier. I just finished edging the hem of a chiffon Kaftan which I needed to shorten. I folded it then used my zig zag. I snipped off the raw edge with an applique scissors. Inspite of being careful I accidentally snipped the material. Fortunately, It was long enough so I redid it. Will try your method next time -- sounds easier. One question, do I need to use a fine silky embroidery thread since I will be going over it twice. Thank you.

@ghostben2113 3 года назад

All of your tutorials are so well explained and very helpful. Can I use this method with a chiffon seam allowance??

@sweetleetha 11 лет назад

I think it is a 7 mm Necchi. I was wondering about the thread? I love your video. I'm glad it was here as I don't know much about sewing, but have a lovely cream with pink and brown manmade material that I wanted to make a cover for my shoulders. There isn't much out there for nice edges.

@cberl11 11 лет назад

Thanks for this video, the hem is so much better than a hand rolled hem. I used a Singer 9mm. My question is when you stitch you don't seem to go as close to the edge as the finished scarf shows. Do you trim off any edge fabric once you are done stitching?

@angelakanetv 11 лет назад

Thanks so much for commenting. It's very encouraging.

@angelakanetv 11 лет назад

Thank you very much for commenting. I shall be following with other techniques soon.

@izabeau1953 3 года назад

I don’t know what you mean 7/9 mm on the machine. But I have a scarf to do for the past 6 years and I didn’t know how to finish that hem. You seem to have a much easy way of doing this fine hem, as I was trying to do a rolled hem practicing last night and it’s not easy . So going to try your method. I have two scarves 🧣 to do. But I didn’t know how ....Tks for showing you method.

@angelakanetv 10 лет назад

Hi Julie, hope you have been able to establish your machine stitching width. Manufacturers don't make it very clear that there are differences. Thank you very much for commenting.

@wzrdreams 11 лет назад

Hi Angela, this is another lovely video! I have a few repeats of a printed chiffon panels in my stash that I think deserve a nice edge. I'll have to give this a try soon. Do you use regular poly thread or would you recommend silk thread for the silk chiffons?

@RedFairyTarot 3 года назад

Tutorial starts at 4:19

@angelakanetv 3 года назад

Thanks

@Emma-bt6mq 3 года назад

Great video and very well explained - thank you! Do you think you could use this finish for pocket squares too as well as scarves? Thanks for your help!

@angelakanetv 3 года назад

Yes, absolutely. It's a great way to finish chiffon which is often spoilt by heavy edges.

@debbieday1987 10 лет назад

Angela I've just finished watching your video on how to finish edges on chiffon however what I really want to no is how to cut on the bias with chiffon without stretching the pieces out of shape? I destroyed a complete skirt because I didn't have the required skills. Do you have any suggestions because I'd like to try this pattern again- without the disastrous outcome of course.
