I think I may have a fix for the 'not enough to turn up' part of this project. Twill worsted wool bias tape applied to the hem will let us get the hem up to where the hemming stitches will be right at a tartan line. Applied flat (not like bias tape would usually be used), it should extend the fabric enough.
There will be three layers right at the turn line, but so long as there is even a quarter inch of turn over, it should work.....
