A friend from Calontir was posting about using silk ribbon as an inside hem finishing technique, something she had learned about from another Calontir friend. I had also seen a similar technique on a video on Norse garb... I wish I could remember which one. It was probably Wyrd Kindred (https://www.youtube.com/@WyrdKindred), but not sure. I decided to give it a try on this orange jacket of mine because the fabric is pretty thick and the hems even more so. After a bit of futzing to figure out how best to do this and hold everything in place while I stitch, I ended up using clips and am pretty happy with how it has turned out.
