French seam (inverted) – It is a strong seam, intrinsically protecting against fraying of the material. No additional stitches are visible on the right side of the garment. However, it can only be used to stitch straight edges; it requires a reserve of approx 1,5 cm. This is the perfect stitch for use in articles, both sides are visible, np. made of transparent fabrics.
1. FIRST SEAM – Spinamy szpilkami i fastrygujemy części materiału złożone lewymi stronami do siebie. We sew them on the machine with a flat stitch at a distance 5 mm from the edge. We take the fabric out of the machine and remove the basting.
2. TRIMMING EDGES – Ostrymi nożycami obcinamy zapas szwu do szerokości 3 mm. We turn the stitched parts right sides to each other, fold along the seam and press.
3. SECOND SEAM – Fastrygujemy części materiału złożone prawymi stronami blisko linii złożenia, which is the first seam. We sew both parts together at a distance 1 cm from this seam, whereby the unbound edges are “closed” inside.
4. SEAM FINISH – Remove the basting and spread the fabric right side up. Only the even line of the seam will be visible with no additional stitches. We press the overlap flat on one side of the seam.
