19. • A seam is a method of binding two or more
pieces of fabric together, usually using
thread to form stitches.

can also be used.
• Seams can be stitched by hand or sewn by
machine.

20. • A seam finish is something that is done to
the cut edge of the seam to prevent it from
raveling.
• Sometimes seam finish is added for a
decorative purposes, though this is not the
primary reason for doing it
• Seam finish should not add bulk nor show
on the face of the fabric.

21. Seams can either be open or closed.
An open seam is one where the seam
allowance, the piece of fabric
between the edge of the material and
the stitches, is visible.

22. A closed seam incorporates the
seam allowance within the
seam finish, making it invisible.

kinds of seams and kinds of
seam finishes, each with its

finishing techniques, such as L-shaped areas (created at a kick pleat)
and V-shaped areas (created when bulk is removed from a princess-line
seam).
