As I said in the previous post, I am using flat fell seams for this Anorak jacket. A flat fell seam is "a seam made by placing one edge inside a folded edge of fabric, then stitching the fold down. It includes a topstitched finish. It is useful for keeping seam allowances flat and covering raw edges." (Wikepedia source)
I took a few photographs as I worked on my flat fell seams
Step 1 - Stitch the seam, press flat
Step 2 - Trim the seam allowance of one side to about 1/4"
The scissors are holding down the front seam allowance so you can see the trimmed seam
Step 3 - Press under the untrimmed seam allowance.
Step 4 - Edgestitch next to the folded edge.Step 1 - Stitch the seam, press flat
Step 2 - Trim the seam allowance of one side to about 1/4"
The scissors are holding down the front seam allowance so you can see the trimmed seam
Step 3 - Press under the untrimmed seam allowance.

Thanks for this turtorial. My next project is a sheer fabric for a spring top this will be a great technique for seams.
