Seams

A flat inside seam, graded and pressed to one side; the
larger seam allowance being top-stitched to the garment
thereby enclosing the smaller.


A seam stitched with a flat straight grain or bias strip, made

with the same or contrasting fabric of suitable texture and

thickness.                      


 A seam in which the fabric to be stitched or seamed lies
 on the inner side of an arc, towards the center of the circle.

A seam joined by utilizing the short stitch length and small
bite of a zigzag pattern.

Seam joining all thicknesses from the face of the garment
 and catching the folded edge of the uppermost ply.


A seam constructed so that a narrow seam is contained
within a larger one, producing a clean finish.

A flat inside seam, graded and pressed to one side; the
larger seam allowance being top-stitched to the garment
thereby enclosing the smaller.

Felled seam, or flat-fell seam, is a seam made by placing one edge inside a folded edge of 

fabric, then stitching the fold down. It includes a top-stitched finish. It is useful for keeping

 seam allowances flat and covering raw edges
