Blindstitch Hem 
 
A Blindstitch Hem is a fast way to finish hems securely on skirts or pants.   
It also makes a great choice when hemming large projects such as  
curtains or bed skirts.  Use matching thread to help the stitches blend into the 
fabric, hence becoming “blind” or invisible.

Attaching Beaded Trims 
 
Adding a trim is an easy way to enhance almost any project!  The look of a 
denim jacket can be changed with a row of trim around the bottom edge.  A  
pair of capri pants can be dressed up by sewing a beaded trim around each 
pant hem.  Home decorating projects such as pillows, bedspreads or table  
runners can have a “face-lift” by just adding a beaded trim.
