Hi, welcome to Expert Village, I'm Gretchen Soares with Butterfly Boutique. Okay, so now what we're gong to do is we're going to go ahead and pin the hem in this and this hem is only going to be a two inch roll. So we're going to mark two inches, and we have a nice straight line to work us and we know this because we just cut that nice straight line. So there's our first two inches and we can just go back and fold up on that pin line. As you put the one pin in you pull the pin out from under it. Okay, so there's our first two inch, but we're going to do a double fold, so what we're actually going to do is go up one more time so we end up with a nice finished fold line on the top. We have our two inch hem pinned in so we're going to go back to the sewing machine and sew this now.
