🇫🇷 How To : French Seams 🇫🇷

🇫🇷 FRENCH SEAMS 🇫🇷

Perfect for those light weight fabrics where you want a clean, enclosed overlocker free finish, French seams really do elevate the inside of your garment! 👗

Here’s how:

1) Start by bringing your fabric WRONG sides together, this is so counter intuitive! Pin along the edge and sew at 3/8”. (Use a seam gauge to help you here).

2) Press open and trim the seam allowances down to 1/8”.

3) Now bring the fabric RIGHT sides together and pin along the edge again. This time, sew at 1/4”.

4) Press your finished seam towards the back of your garment and ta-dah! You’ve got super professional French seams 🌟

I love this method of seam finishing, it feels so special, even if it is a little time consuming!
