Heming Pants & Shorts with & Without a Sewing Machine
What you'll learn
Hemming is an effective way of finishing garments to prevent the fabric from unraveling. There are many different ways to hem a garment but in this class, I’m going to be showing you how to hem pants or shorts using a double-fold method and an overlock-and-fold method. I’ll be showing you how to do this with a sewing machine and without a sewing machine.

Hey! I’m Gabby. I bought my first sewing machine in 2014 and I’ve been sewing ever since. I learned by watching videos and I’m happy to give back to others who want to do the same.
