I'd never been able to get a decent rolled hem with my old machine, probably more to do with me than the machine. :-)
But I thought I'd give it a go with the new machine. I switched to fabric hankies over the summer, you know to stop filling up landfills with paper tissues, and because my dog always tried to eat the used tissues. nice.
So I got some fabric hankies, if I get a cold or flu I'll probably temporarily switch back to tissues. All was well, except my dog still managed to steal a couple and eat off a corner or two. So I needed to trim and re-hem them, ahem.
I sprayed and ironed the fabric with some starch which I think helped. And of course, my new machine can do no wrong. :-)

We use fabric hankies all the time. SO easy to just throw in the washing machine, and I actually find they are BETTER for colds, because they are nicer to raw noses. And as I said -- easy to wash in hot water to get rid of germs.
You haven't posted about the new machine! I hope you will soon, I am curious. :)
