Blind Stitch

Hemming stitch, how do I do this using Zigzag ?
I have a brother sewing machine and it does not appear to have a particular hemming stitch, it is not computerised but does have a three step zigzag and a wider and narrower picture of a zigzag, please can anyone explain how to do a hem, I have tried using the directions for if I had blind hem stitch but not quite right so wondered if anyone could give some advice, thanks in anticipation
My machine is a brother sewing machine, model no XL-2120
What you need is a stitch where every 5th stitch is a big V. The V is the stitch which will go through to the front of the material, so you fold the material over and just catch the edge of this fold with the top of the V
It doesn't much matter whether the smaller stitches in between are straight stitches or smaller v. The smaller stitches go on the top of the hem that will be inside the garment and not seen, so this part is on the right in the machine.on the left is fold that you are just catching the top of.
You could do it by sliding the material to the left so that the in-between stitches miss the fold, but from what you describe the machine does have a blind stitch. What model is it?
