The tastiest of all seams. Probably.
Learn how to do a flat felled seam - with no trimming!
Flat felled seams are pretty sexy as far as seams go - and pretty easy! They can be used for garment making, think inside leg seams of jeans for added strength or for projects where other seams just won't work, as in flag or banner making.

Step 4
Start by laying your fabrics, wrong sides together. Normally you'd butt the raw edges inline with each other, but for this technique, you need to have the bottom fabric sticking out around 1cm to the right, as shown - you can pin this in place.
Note about pinning when machine sewing - always *always* pin horizontally, it is safer and easier to remove the pins as you sew this way.
