Now, we must do a ton of hemming. For the two front pieces of the robe, you need to hem the top angled piece and the side of that, and also the armhole.

For the back piece, you need to hem the the neck and armholes.

To do this, simply fold a small amount of fabric (1/4 to 1/3 inch) over to the wrong side of the fabric and press. You'll probably need to do this in tiny sections, especially for the armholes and neck. They'll be more curved!

Then sew the folded fabric in place very close to the edge. :D
