Video Transcript

"Hello! My name is Lindsay on behalf of expertvillage.com. In this clip I’m going to show you how to fold your fabric in half and how to hem the top. Now that we’ve hemmed both sides we’re going to make where we hemmed it face down on top of the table, then we’re going to take the very end of the fabric and fold it over to where the hemming on this side is faced up. So the right sides are together, we’re going to make sure they’re even on the top and then we’re going to measure the top an inch down and we’re going to put the straight pins there. After you get your straight pins all the way down the top of your fabric we’re going to sew it."
