Another tip is once you fold the hem or neckline, clip into the seam allowance a the hem line and flip the seams each way (hope that makes sense). This make the seam flatter when sewing over it with either the twin needle or coverstitch.Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14691687252337993643noreply@blogger.com
