Description: When creating a double hem at a 90-degree corner, a lot of fabric bulk is created — nine layers, in fact. That makes the corner rather heavy to sew and almost impossible to install fasteners or grommets correctly. In this video we will show a mitered corner technique that reduces the layers of fabric and results in a very nice looking double hemmed corner. Use this technique in your next fabric or heavy canvas sewing application.
