COMMON SEAMS

PLAIN SEAM :---This is the most widely used seam because it is easy to make

requires less time . It is used on all types of fabrics except on

very transparent fabrics and is especially suitable for firm fabrics that

do not rawal and will not be subjected to hard and frequent launder

on shirts , coats , petticoats , blouses etc . Plain seam is especially

used on under arm seams and armhole seams .

To make this seam place the two pieces of fabrics

to be joined together right sides facing matching the seam lines

stitch the seam exactly on the seam line and press the seam open .

If the fabric is fine both the seam allowances can be pressed to

one side .
