  Blind Hemmer Ending Stitch Techniques
  I show how I now end my blind hemmer stitches. In the past I always used the old technique of raising the needle to its' highest position and releasing the pressure foot and jerking the fabric back quickly to break the thread. This led to size 10 needles skipping stitches sooner than I thought they should. I contacted the mfg of my machine and they told me to use the technique I show in this video. Since I've gone to it my #10 needles are lasting much longer. :) The machine shown is an Industrial Consew made in Japan back in the 1970s. Kevin Sews Published on Jul 2, 2014

*The new SL718-2 has a smaller Swing Plate instead of the larger Fixed Plate extension shown in the picture. The old SL718-2D with fixed extension has been discontinued. Thenew swing plate exposes the machine's cylinder arm which allows multi-use of the SL718-2 as a garment or as a drapery hemming machine.
