Sometimes you get so used to doing regular seams that it's easy to forget that there are many different kinds of seams that you can do in garment sewing. There are the French seam and the faux French seam to try. I love them because all the raw edges are enclosed The result is beautiful, clean-looking seams that are both professional and elegant. It's perfect for lightweight fabrics, such as sheers, like organza, chiffon, or silky fabrics that are too delicate to finish the raw edges with the traditional methods. Your project will maintain a light, airy look. While French seams seem complicated to pull off and do take a little extra time to achieve, it is a simple seam to create and adds to the quality of your garment. Our tutorial will show you how you can achieve both types of french seams for all your lightweight creations.
