Today’s Sewing Term with Erin is “Felling Stitch”
The felling stitch, often known as the “flat felling stitch,” is a durable and discreet hand-sewing technique used to join two pieces of fabric. This stitch is not only strong but also gives a neat, finished look on both sides of the fabric, making it ideal for lining jackets where you want the inside to look as clean and polished as the outside.

Here’s why you should consider using a felling stitch for your next jacket lining project:

	1.	Durability: It creates a seam that’s robust enough to withstand wear and tear, ensuring your lining stays intact.
	2.	Professional Finish: The stitch is nearly invisible from the outside, providing a sleek and professional appearance.
	3.	Versatility: It works wonderfully with a wide range of fabrics, from lightweight silks to heavier wools.

👗 To execute a felling stitch:

	•	Place the fabrics with their wrong sides together.
	•	Fold over the edge of the top fabric to encase the raw edge of the bottom fabric.
	•	Begin stitching close to the fold to secure the two layers.

Practice makes perfect, so don’t shy away from using scrap fabric to get your stitches just right before moving on to your actual project.

Happy stitching, and remember—every stitch you make adds character and charm to your creations! 🪡💕
