how to roll hem or other finish for sheer fabric

I have not rolled a hem in over 10 years. I think I have the foot to it for both my machines (singer and elna), but I have no idea how to use it. does anyone know of a web site with pictures on how to use it? Then again maybe I don't need it. I'm making a ballet outfit for a little girl for Christmas. It's very sheer fabric. Is there some other way I can finish the edges with a serger (I think I can still remember how to thread it!). Thanks, Lisa

Hi Lisa,

Well you could:

1) Plain serge it with matching thread - maybe a narrow 3 thread overlock 2) Roll hem it with the serger if your machine does this function 3) roll hem it with one of your SM's and the correct foot 4) hand roll hem it.

Look at Kate's website:

I'm sure she covers rolled hems in her 'Learning zone'

Hit the link below and go looking at the seams and hems sections on my site. Rolled hems are there.
