Description
Description
This is a genuine vintage Singer hemmer foot in excellent condition. Creates a professional, narrow 5/64-inch rolled hem on lightweight fabrics without the need for basting or pressing. The scroll-shaped guide (funnel) automatically folds the fabric edge twice as it passes through the machine, creating a clean, finished edge in a single operation. All-metal, one-piece construction. Perfect for scarves, ruffles, napkins, blouses, and delicate garments.
Key Features:

- Scroll-shaped funnel automatically folds fabric twice
- No basting or pressing required

Perfect For:
- Delicate Fabrics: Silk, rayon, chiffon, and lightweight materials
- Scarves: Professional rolled hems on scarf edges
- Ruffles: Clean, narrow hems on ruffled details
- Napkins: Elegant hems on cloth napkins and table linens

How the Hemmer Foot Works:
The hemmer foot streamlines the hemming process by performing several actions simultaneously. The raw edge of the fabric is guided into the unique scroll or funnel-shaped opening at the front of the foot. As the fabric is fed through, the guide automatically rolls the edge of the fabric under twice. The sewing machine's needle then stitches the folded hem in place, creating a clean, finished edge. This process eliminates the manual effort of repeatedly folding, pressing, and pinning a narrow hem, saving significant time and producing consistent, professional results.
Using the Foot:
- Prep the Fabric: Clip off the very starting corner of the fabric. Pre-fold and press the first inch or two of the hem to guide it into the foot's scroll
- Attach Foot: Install hemmer foot on your low shank machine
- Guide the Fabric: Gently guide the fabric into the funnel, ensuring the raw edge is properly aligned to be consistently rolled
- Adjust Settings: Use a longer stitch length to help fabric feed more smoothly
- Sew: Maintain a steady, even pace. The scroll automatically folds fabric twice as you stitch
Benefits:
- Professional Finish: Clean, delicate, and durable narrow hems
- Time-Saving: No manual folding, pressing, or pinning required
- Consistent Results: Automatic folding ensures uniform hem width
- Genuine Singer Quality: Original vintage part in excellent condition
- Durable Metal: All-metal, one-piece construction for long-lasting performance
Best Fabrics:
Works most effectively on light to very lightweight, soft fabrics such as silk, rayon, and chiffon. Using it on heavier fabrics like denim may cause the fabric to jam in the guide.
Tips for Success:
- Has a slight learning curve—practice on scrap fabric first
- Clip starting corner and pre-fold first inch or two to guide fabric into scroll
- Maintain steady, even pace while sewing
- Use longer stitch length for smoother fabric feeding
- Troubleshooting: If edge runs out (not enough fabric), move hand to the left. If too much material jams, move hand slightly to the right
- Best on lightweight, soft fabrics like silk, rayon, and chiffon
- Avoid heavy fabrics like denim—they may jam in the guide
