Jenerates Flex Hemmer

100% unique and original!  The Jenerates Silicone Hemmer is loved by sewists all over the world.  Jen has I’ve been working on an idea for a flexible version for a while now. This one can curve in either direction or even both at the same time, perfect for shirt tails. 

You can use the holes to mark the position of the hemmer with a chalk pencil or iron-off pen:-

- in the cm vesion the holes are at 1cm and 2cm, and the hemmer is 3cm wide. 

But more importantly, pin through the holes to keep it in place while you press.  You could use a felt mat, but you can just pin into your ironing board too.

You can also use the FLEX hemmer on straight edges.  Just add a little tension when pinning to inhibit the curve.

And a handy tip: the silicone hemmers work on a tailor’s ham without moving your fabric out of place.  The Jenerates FLEX can make an extreme curve, as shown in the photos.  

The FLEX is heat resistant up to 230°C, won’t buckle under steam, and stays cool to the touch. It’s designed to be both functional and strong.  It’s firm enough to give you a solid edge to press against but not so thick that it creates a step in the fabric. The FLEX is tough too; we’ve stretched it to almost double its length in tests without any issues, but please don't try that at home!  When you’re not using it, please store it flat or loosely folded.

Overall size: metric 300x30mm.
