When I realized it was going to be too short for her I decided to see if I could do a lettuce edge on a regular sewing machine rather than a folded hem.  I found this tip in a Google search and it worked really well on a scrap of the fabric so I decided to go for it!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/sewing.patternreview.com\/cgi-bin\/review\/readreview.pl?readreview=1&amp;ID=344\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/sewing.patternreview.com\/cgi-bin\/review\/readreview.pl?readreview=1&amp;ID=344<\/a><\/p>\n<p>It took a while to finish up the hem, two times around, but I&#8217;m happy with how it came out for my first try.  I think I&#8217;ll be reserving this technique for sleeves &amp; leggings hems from now on!  The skirt is still really short, but I think it will work for a bit. I used Kwik Sew <span class=\"catalogue_pattern_numb\"><a class=\"patternnumber\" href=\"http:\/\/www.kwiksew.com\/Catalog\/cat_detail.cfm?pid=3501&amp;QL=Toddlers\" target=\"_blank\">3501<\/a> <\/span>and thought it was really easy to put together.
