In this category you will find all tailors hams without foot. Because these have no foot they are not as stable as the one with a foot. When ironing they will wobble a bit...
Would you like a more stable tailors ham check out the category: Tailors ham on foot
Tailors hams can be divided in 3 different types:
-
Hand tailors hams or small tailors hams
-
Large egg shaped or oval tailors hams
-
Large bean shaped or kidney hams
Hand tailors ham
These are the smallest hams. Used for small roundings like sleeve heads and the round parts of princess lines. They are also the first tailors ham you buy. When you sew more and want to iron more easily you graduate to a larger tailors ham
Large egg shaped or oval tailors hams
In these there are three sizes: small, medium (or standard) and large. Just like in womens fashion the small hams are straighter and flatter than the large hams which are rounder and longer
We have indicated which womens clothing size the tailors hams are suitable for. This is a guideline for your order. Ofcourse you can use a small ham with a large sized garment but the pieces are usually longer and they fit better on a large tailors ham...
Large tailors ham bean shaped or kidney
This one has the same three sizes than the egg shaped hams: small, medium (or standard) and maxi. And also for the beans the larger ham is rounder and longer than te smaller ones
When you are sewing garments for different sizes you can ofcourse choose more than one tailors ham. But if your space is small you can try the medium tailors ham, that will probably suffice
