Abstract: A decorative engineered self-hem and a method to prepare the decorative engineered self-hem in a single fabric is disclosed herein. It is prepared without having any additional cut and sew, with various weave patterns designed in a design area 10-20 inches from a selvedge area and the rest of the fabric is woven in conventional weave pattern such as satin/twill. The method of preparation includes cutting the fabric parallel to a selvedge area; folding the fabric overlapping the selvedge area; and folding the full fabric horizontally and, at the same time, hemming of edge of the selvedge area to finish.

Abstract: A temporary hemming device includes first and second rows of cooperating fasteners, such as hook and eye fasteners, or cooperating stud or snap members, and the like, with the first and second rows of cooperating fasteners affixed to the inside of a pant leg or sleeve of a garment, such that the pant leg or sleeve can be inwardly folded to removably fasten the first and second rows of cooperating fasteners together to form a temporary hem of the pant leg or sleeve of the garment.

Abstract: In the field of garment manufacture there is a need for an improved manner of joining two stretchable fabric portions to one another, in a desired configuration, that produces an unobtrusive join of sufficient strength which is able to accommodate stretching of the fabric portions.
