Seam Allowance (sewing) – Sewing Word of the Day
Seam Allowance (sewing) –
The space between the raw edge of cut fabric and the stitching line. This space allows you to make adjustments during fitting and allows for fabric edges to fray or roll.
You can change the seam allowance size as needed before cutting your fabric to suit your needs. Seam allowances can be different for different areas of a garment.
