The colour is beautiful and looks great on you. Would you mind sharing how you did such a nice hem. My hems on knits bunches and gathers. :( I can't figure it out.

Ruth, on this dress I did a narrow hem. However, on knits I usually interface the hem before sewing in place. So if it's a 1 and 1/4" hem, I cut strips of interfacing that wide and fuse into place. I never have any bunching with this technique.

Just to clarify, when you mean fuse is it iron on the interface and it sticks on one side then fold it over and do a top stitch?
