I sew, I quilt . , but not like this and I need help with a really stupid thing. I have a suit, it needs to be hemmed. I tried to hem in with a strait stretch stitch in a matching fabric. I didn't like it and pulled it out. the fabric is a stretch very soft hand poly suiting. It is a very subtle tapestry looking weave . Do I go for the invisible thread and the same stitch next? Do I have to cut the old hem, or can I just turn it up? The hem I need is exactly one turn of the old hem up. I don't want to practice a blind hem on this particular garment as I doubt it will take much more stitch picking and I'm not so good at it.
All done!!
