A hem is a garment finishing method, where the edge of a piece of cloth is folded narrowly and sewn to prevent unravelling of the fabric as well as offering a finished edge.
How We Use Hemming
We hem the bottom edge of the torso prior to assembly. Our pattern has fold and hem lines to make hemming easy.
