At the bottom outside of the hem sew a line using large stitches ¼” away from the edge. You can use this one line, or, if you're really having trouble and to make it even easier, sew another line ¼” above that. The second line will help you to guide the fabric while trying to fold the hem and will also show up on the outer edge of the underside of the hem (this can be removed when you are finished).
