One of my favorite seam finishes is the French seam, simply because there are no raw edges inside the garment. It's great on slinky fabrics like this silk charmeuse
Hi I’m Angela Wolf, let me show you how easy it is to sew a French seam.
If you use a plain seam you'll need to finish these raw edges of the seam allowance to avoid fraying.
But a French seam's seam allowance is already finished as part of the process!
Check your sewing pattern to determine what the seam allowances are. I find it easiest to change my seam allowances to 1 inch. / Say my pattern has seam allowances that are 5/8 of an inch - I'll add 3/8 of an inch to each seam allowance before cutting out my pattern.
Unlike a plain seam, you'll start with the wrong sides of the fabric facing each other and stitch with a half-inch seam allowance
Trim the seam allowance to about a quarter of an inch
Press the seam allowance to one side - it’s a good idea to press from both sides of the seam just to make sure the fabric lays nice and flat
Now fold the fabric along that stitch line, enclosing the seam allowance, and press again. Use a tailor’s clapper if you have one for a nice crisp crease.
Next, stitch right along this pressed edge with a half-inch seam allowance, to encase the raw edges.
Press the seam allowance towards one side. Remember if you’re using this seam in a garment you'd press towards the back of the garment...
See how nice this looks, and it’s super easy!
