Simplified Systems of Sewing and Styling - 1948 - Lesson 7 - Sleeve Finishes - Hems and Setting in Sleeves

More from Simplified Systems of Sewing and Styling by Doris Anderson. We are going to look at highlights from each one. Today it's Sleeve Finishes, with a detailed look at hems. All sorts of hems, self-stitched, taped, catch stitched, pinked, rolled, rolled whipped, shell, picot, edge-stitched and even hems for tricky areas, in a pleat, how to hem a fly front closing, interfaced hem of a jacket and hem finish at a faced edge.
So much to know, but oh so important to get these details right!
