Lesson 2: Seam Types and When to Use Them

Different garments need different seam types:

Plain Seam – Fast, simple (casual clothes).
French Seam – Encloses raw edges (sheer fabrics).
Flat-Felled Seam – Durable (jeans and outerwear).
Overlocked Seam – Fast-finish for most garments.

Choose based on durability, fabric type, and desired finish.
