AboutSharon Vogel Expertise I can answer general sewing questions as well as tailoring, heirloom, menswear, children's wear, craft sewing, quilting and just about any fabric or notion. I can also help with some sewing machine repair and maintenance.
Experience I started sewing at the age of 3...thanks to my mom and grandmother, and I am now in my fifties. Home economics classes in junior high and high school helped me to finesse my skills.
Education/Credentials Palmer and Plesch tailoring class
Basically, self-taught...give me the instructions and I will figure it out and then make it better!
Awards and Honors A few blue ribbons at fairs along the way
Not sure what this hem is called but on organza it looks like a curled or slightly 'ruffled' edge. It may be rolled. How is that done?
Answer Dear Ginger,
That is a rolled hem. It is done using a rolled hemming foot that comes with most sewing machines. The raw edge of the fabric is pulled up into the coil of the foot and stitched with a narrow zig zag stitch.
