To be honest, I have been sewing my hems on my Babylock Coverstitch for years without much snipping and I seldom worry about perfectly wrapping the edge of the hem. So far I have avoided testing settings for the needles by stitching a few millimeters away from the edge like [[Hemming#Avoiding tunnelling|this]]. But it is always nice to have options. Or is it? As they say in French: "l'embarras du choix!" I am now facing the burden of choice. ;-) | To be honest, I have been sewing my hems on my Babylock Coverstitch for years without much snipping and I seldom worry about perfectly wrapping the edge of the hem.

- | When reverse coverstitching hems with all needles piercing 2 layers of fabric, I use the TIGHT setting with all purpose thread in the looper. I have not tried reverse stitching with stretch thread because I don't like the way it tends to hook into things. | + | |
