My hem was originally about 3" and my finished length was going to be 24" but I then realized it was still about 2 inches too long so I shortened it. I was trying to avoid cutting off the bottom thinking that the bit of extra bottom weight might be beneficial, but I'm not opposed to trimming it back to 3" if it has to be. And I actually did curve it towards the bottom as I thought about it looking pointy as well. I was confused about where to mark the actual flare if there was to be a hem thinking since it was being folded under it would cause it to look like this vv losing some of it to the underside..
