Picot Hem Stitch

Applications


Picot Hems

A picot hem provides a small, scalloped edge, especially for fabrics such as tricot or light jersey knits. Fold the hem allowance under, then stitch along the fold so that the "straight" part of the stitch sews within the hem, and the "point" sews off the edge of the hem's fold. The result is a scalloped edge. For machines with adjustable stitch length and stitch width, set the stitch width and stitch length based on how you want the hem to look, and practice first on a scrap fabric.

Decorative Stitching

Use this stitch to embellish your sewing projects with a single row, multiple rows, or even in combination with other decorative stitches. Experiment with various types of thread such as rayon thread, all-purpose thread, metallic thread, topstitching thread, or even 30wt and 12wt cotton. Use a needle that is appropriate for the type of thread you are using. It is also helpful to use a stabilizer to help support the stitches. Learn more about needles and stabilizer on the SINGER website.
