3/8 inch seams for patterns Help!
Nolakat22 Advanced Beginner LA USA Member since 2/11/12 Posts: 11	Login to reply to this post Like this post Date: 8/14/12 10:08 AM I have been tackling quite a few children's simplicity patterns and I am confused - the instructions say use a 5/8 inch seam unless otherwise noted on the pattern piece. When I look at the pattern piece the arms eye says 3/8 inch seam - does that mean the side seam is 3/8 inches as well? I can't tell if they mean the whole side of the garment has a 3/8 inch seam or just the arm's eye? Thanks in advance for any help.

Probably because it will be folded, finished with bias or faced. With any of these methods a 5/8" seam would have to be trimmed to 3/8", so this would be saving you construction time.
