Steps

1. 1

   Measure and Mark the Bear

   Try the garment to determine the desired length. Use the tape meter to accurately measure the hem length you want. Add 2 to 3 centimetres extra for sewing, then mark the cutting line with pins or a tailor chalk.

   
2. 2

   Cut the excess fabric

   If you have excess tissue, use your scissors to cut along the line you marked. Be accurate and cut straight to avoid any irregularity.

   
3. 3

   Cross the Bear

   Before sewing, cut the hem with an iron to flatten the fold. This will make sewing easier and ensure a clean finish.

   
4. 4

   Sew the hem

   Use a needle and thread or sewing machine to fix the hem in place. If you sew by hand, use an invisible dot for a discreet finish. If you use a machine, choose a simple straight point. Be sure to sew all around the hem at a regular distance from the edge.
