Hello All I wonder if someone could advise on which piece of kit to use to put very small hems on super lightweight cotton fabric, the type of hem you might see on a handkerchief. It doesn't matter if the stitching is visible both sides, but it needs to be a double hem so that no ragged edge is visible. It would be nice to automate the process as much as possible, ie I would rather not have to absolutely guide it along keeping it straight by eye, if that makes sense. I want to do a quantity of these and will buy a machine to do it. Will I need a sewing machine or an overlocker for example? I don't have any plans to use it for anything else so a dedicated machine would be OK. As you can probably tell I know practically nothing at this point, but life is for learning. Any tips most welcome. Hugh
