what stitch is most commonly used for hemming?Updated 2 months ago

The most commonly used stitch for hemming garments is the "blind hem

stitch." This stitch is designed to be nearly invisible from the right side of the

fabric, providing a clean and professional finish. It involves securing the folded

hem in place while taking small, barely visible stitches on the outer side of the

garment. The blind hem stitch can be done by hand or using a sewing

machine with a blind hem foot, which helps guide the stitches accurately. This

technique allows the hem to lay flat and provides a neat and seamless

appearance.
