How to sew clothes by hand

The manual method for wrapping clothes is as follows:

Hand wrapping is a common garment processing technology, which is used to treat the edge of fabric to prevent pilling, dropping or loosening. The following are common methods of manual edge locking for reference:

Prepare tools and materials:

Needle and thread: choose a thread similar to the color of the fabric, preferably with silk thread or polyester thread.

Needle: Choose a suitable needle, and generally use a fine needle to penetrate the fabric.

Scissors: used to trim threads and fabrics.

Nail or thumbtack: used to fix cloth and keep it flat.

Needle thread threader (optional): an auxiliary threading tool to make the thread end pass through the pinhole more easily.

Prepare the fabric:

Leave a certain cutting margin on the edge to be sewn, generally 1.5 to 2 cm.

Fix the cloth on the workbench with pushpins or pushpins to ensure that the cloth is flat.

Start edge locking:

Thread the thread through the eye of the needle and tie the knot to ensure that the thread end will not slip out.

Starting from the bottom of the fabric, insert the needle into the edge of the bottom of the fabric and then go up through the top of the fabric.

Maintain the tension of the thread, insert the needle into the edge of the bottom of the fabric again, align with the previous pinhole, and pass through the top of the fabric again.

Repeat this process to form parallel stitches and keep the stitch spacing consistent.

Maintain a proper tension between each stitch, but not too tight, so as not to deform the fabric.

Full edge locking:

When the sewing edge reaches the end of the fabric, the needle passes through the bottom of the fabric, and then the thread is tied and fixed.

Use scissors to cut off the excess thread ends and ensure that the hemming part is clean.

Please note that manual hemming requires patience and skill, which can only be mastered through practice. If it is aimed at complex fabrics or designs, or requires highly accurate hemming effect, you may need a professional sewing machine or seek the help of professionals.
