To make a French seam you sew your seam right sides together. at 5/8th in.... Then you trim away half of one side of the seam.... Then you press the seam towards the shorter half. Then you fold the longer half over the narrower half and press..... then you stitch up the flat open side..... that makes a double sewn seam called Frenched seaming.
There are 11 types of seams which include: abutted, enclosed, exposed, false french, flat-felled, french, fused, glued, hairline, lapped seam with raw edges, and finally overedged seam.
The three types of seam are Plain seam, French seam and Ancient or Old German flat seam.
An enclosed seam, or a French seam, is a seam that is sewn with the wrong sides of the fabric together. A second seam is usually sewn with the right sides together so that the first seam is enclosed.
Three self-neatened seams include the French seam, the flat-felled seam, and the bias-bound seam. A French seam encloses the raw edges within a folded seam, providing a clean finish ideal for lightweight fabrics. The flat-felled seam features one seam allowance folded over the other and stitched down, creating a strong, durable seam commonly used in denim. The bias-bound seam encases the raw edges in bias tape, offering a neat finish while allowing for flexibility in fabric types.
Where you overlap the edges approximately 1/4 of an inch.
After the seam is sewn, a seam finish can be applied to the outside edges of the seam allowances to keep them looking neat and prevent fraying. Examples of seam finishes are a zig-zag stitch, using pinking shears for a pinked finish, french seams, flat-felled seams, etc.
a curved seam is a seam that is curved
An open seam is a general purpose seam. An open seam is two pieces of fabric sewn together, and then the seam allowances are pressed open, creating a flat and clean seam line on the right side of the fabric.
The seam to seam length in a horizontal vessel refers to the distance measured from one seam to the opposite seam of the vessel along its circumference. It is an important measurement for determining the size and capacity of the vessel. This measurement is typically used in the fabrication and design of horizontal vessels such as tanks or pressure vessels.
