You want to make the turned under hem very small, and press it up before you start sewing. it will require occasional little darts to keep the curve smooth so pressing well first is imperative.

Thank you. I hope to start on it this weekend---if nothing else comes up. Thanks again.

When I was in Home Ec a hundred years ago, I was taught to apply hem tape to the raw edge, do a running stitch very close to the edge of the hem tape (all the way around) and ease it taut to bring the edge up into a slightly gathered hem. Adjust the gathers until the hem lays flat and iron it. Then do a blind hem stitch.

Did that make sense?
