Can this do a flat hem?

i am new to sewing, so i am not sure. if you mean a flat-felled seam it would probably be better to use a different foot. this is designed to catch the material and curve it up and around. granted i was using it with difficult fabrics (satin and tulle) but i found it hard to work with.

Yes, and it also has two pairs of straps on the under side that pull it snug - these straps hold to each other with Velcro making it very easy to pull it tight and conform to your ironing board. The surface will still be very slightly puffed up but if you run your hot iron over the cover - basically iron the cover without any clothes on it, in about 3 passes of your iron it becomes very flat and just right to use.

I use mine to hem pants to make aprons. I use it for all of my sewing needs so I would think that you would be fine with it.

Yes. First you have to shampoo and condition. Give It A Minimum Of 1 Inch Trim. Practice your blowout / dry it. Then flat iron It has to be human hair, if anything else forget it.

I suppose you could, but it is possible depending how high you hem them up you may want to hem up the pockets as well.

The fabric is heavy enough that it would hang flat if you tacked it up. However, it is dense fabric. It might actually be more travel ready with a frame that could be folded... Material was easy to cut to size but rather a mess to manage before we mounted it. :)

Yes. This is a heavy duty machine that does a good job on denim hems, make sure you use a needle for denim (thicker than other needles). I've sewn denim shoulder bags, straps, linings, and the machine performs very well. Good luck!

They may if you build a holder for them out of angle iron, otherwise I am not sure and you have not stated whether you have a flat bed or a conventional one. One good thing about these is they cut to length really easy by clamping to a board and using a piece of strap iron for a guiding edge and a sharp utility knife.

I specifically bought it for a smooth-top range. Unfortunately it does not sit flat because of the thickness of the wooden handle, so it doesn't work very well. Look for one that is totally flat (or maybe cut off the handle? Good luck!

I just took a look at it and nothing too thick would be able to be buckled, however, I think if you can just grab some of the material of the comforter, not the stuffing, it would work.

I only do flat: sheets, pillow cases, tableclothes, napkins and placemats. I would think it would be doable, but would take more patience than I have. There are u-tube videos and how to do shirts, etc.

Laying flat the bottom of the hem measures 10 1/4 inches. Twice that would be 20.5 inches. So somewhere in that range.

I have not tried it that way since I do not have a flat surface to put it on. It shoul work fine.

Not exactly. It will flat iron but will not curl. And a lot of hair falls out. I put it away to use as a costume wig, not a serious wig.

I would say essentially yes, but it is not flat. The fit and finish of this product is very crappy.

This is a flat surface, but I can use a straightening iron to put some slight curl in my hair. It just takes a curving pull on the iron through the hair.

I don't think so. It needs at least a 2x2 spot to secure it to and it should be flat. I had to shim mine up on the desk because the trim hung over.
