Hi everyone!
I'm currently working on making a 1920's undershirt from an antique pattern. It's been going well, but one of the biggest issues has been turning the hem, which is extremely curved. I try easing the fabric, but I always end up with lots of puckers. I followed a suggestion I saw online to try lightly gathering the hem, but this didn't solve the issue. I ended up making a little fold at the apex of the curve on my toile, which took away many of the puckers, but it didn't completely resolve the issue and isn't aesthetically pleasing.
All of that's to say... does anyone have any advice on turning an extremely curved hem?
