  • Thank you!!! I was going crazy last night trying to figure out how to do a rolled hem. The bernina manual gives absolutely horrible directions. I have the 700D, I can't believe I was lucky enough to find a video with almost the same machine. I think the mistake I made was having the knife setting too low. Everything looked fine except the edge wasn't actually rolled over. I'm soooo glad you gave that tip...I'll try leaving a litte more cutting width and see how that works. Thanks again!

  • This is the best of the serger videos on youtube. Many thanks.

  • Great tips, I just got a serger, and like songbird says they give you awful directions. I really appreciate your time and effort.

  • @songbirdsmile

    You have a great machine for this kind of seam...(not all are). I remember when I first discovered the "blade-out" trick...it's a real breakthrough when you want to finish your piece...but are having that frustrating stitch-off-the-edge thing happen. I'm glad I can pass my tricks along this way.

    Thank You!

    Hey, You're welcome! Glad you like it.

  • @alooterinariot

    Great, glad you like the demo. Did you try it on your serger with good results? If so, what fabric did you use?

  • @Harphoney

    I have no idea; I have never made my own panties. I think that's a question for your serger dealer.....

    although what I would do is: try many different style seams on the exact fabric I am using; writing down the settings for each sample, then choose the best (keeping in mind seam stability, as well as look).

  • awesome!!

  • Wow this is the best video I have seen on you tube about sewing a roled hem thanks a bunch....

  • what stitch on the serger do you suggest to finish side seams on panties?

    Thanks
