I've amended the text to match the photos.<br /><br />Flat felled seams can be sewn so the seam sits on either the outside or the inside of the garment. For a seam that sits on the outside - sew wrong sides together for step 1, as in the photos above. For a seam that sits on the inside - sew right sides together for step 1.Pam @Threading My Wayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15990609128028224347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4035755590833291625.post-47495148451863350612017-11-15T05:00:43.526+11:002017-11-15T05:00:43.526+11:00Nicely done.

One question...for the description for the flat fell seam you say to sew the seam with right sides facing, however the photos appear to show the wrong sides facing. ?growingupsewinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17805868470012317699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4035755590833291625.post-43862020565580939952017-06-30T09:50:22.444+10:002017-06-30T09:50:22.444+10:00Well spotted, Abigail.

In the instructions, it doesn't say anything about doing a zig-zag stitch. However in the picture, it looks like there is a zig-zag. How & when do you put that in? Do you zig-zag the two raw edges of the fabric together after the first straight seam and before the second one?
