PRELIMINARY INFORMATION

Double Stitched Seams.—If the raw edges of a plain seam are both turned in one direction and the seam stitched a second time, it is called a double stitched seam. See Fig. 49. Such a seam will give a garment a tailored appearance.
Double stitched seams are used in some cases at the side front and side back seams of a coat.
