I'm a sewing professional. But I hadn't seen one of these in years & needed a video to help me remember how to do it. Lol! Thanks for your concise instructions & clear video. Really helpful!
Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment. I’m really glad I was able to help and also to get professional feedback. I’m hoping that my videos will be clear for everyone🙏😊
Perfect tutorial! There is no fluff and filler to drag it out, and the tutorial itself is well narrated & the video provides a clear guide to follow! 100/10!!
As a beginning sewer, this was exactly what I was looking for - and in addition to my thanks to you for showing this technique, I must also comment as so many others have, this is the clearest, most concise, easiest to watch and understand instructional video. Thank you so very much.
Thanks Charlie, So happy to hear this. I hoped that my tutorial was clear enough for everyone to follow along. Thanks so much for watching and please have a look at some of my other tutorials. Cheers!😊

I’m so glad I found this channel, I’m learning so much. You must have been sewing for many years, you’re a natural at it. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Found this video and am ecstatic!!! I've recently begun to sew linen dress shirts with French seams and have side slits and this video is perfect !! You make it so easy to do and I thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!
I've been sewing simple hems for several years and recently started trying new techniques. Your videos on the french seam and the split are great - the perfect pace and amount of detail. I'm looking forward to seeing more. Thank you!
Wow, thank you! I really appreciate the feedback as this is what I am striving for. Lots more to come so please have a look at some of my other videos for more helpful tips. Cheers!
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I dislike how most commercial patterns ignore how to properly finish a garment. This is a beautiful finish and I can't wait to try it out on a shirt I am working on.
Wish I could like this video twice. I’ve always wanted to sew clothes but thought I had to have a serger. I want to make a dress with a slit so this is exactly what I needed. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!!!!!
Thanks so much. Glad you like it. Please also have a look at some of my other tutorials. You may like some of the flat fell seam ones and how to make skinny straps etc.. Cheers!
I was sewing a pocket with french seams and had no idea how to go from the french seam to finishing the hand opening of the pocket. Luckily I found your video and was able to apply the same principles to my use case :) My first pocket was beyond saving, but the second one looks so neat now :D
I love your basic tips, I've sewn for 56 years but can always learn something new. I have made side vents in retail clothes often. Especially if a but tight on tummy. Also if I'm shortening pants to Capri length the side vent looks nicer and your pants not just chopped off. I may refer some beginners in my upcycle groups to your channel.
This tutorial was just what I needed for my 18th Century adjustable petticoat!! I was wandering for quite a while how I could finish the side seams with the slit at the top. This is it!! Thank you so much! You saved my project!!🎉❤
Thanks so much - I want to do this on a dress I'm making and couldn't figure it out myself Great video that gets straight to the point and shows all the steps so clearly
Brilliant! I was halfway through making a French Seam before I realised I needed something like this and didn't even know if it was possible. Just what I needed!
This is one of the best presented and most useful sewing videos I've ever seen. I had no idea that this was possible. When I've sewn slits before I've just serged my edges and sewn a straight seam, kind of fudging the bottom part turn under. I sew with a lot of linens and I will use this today on a garment I'm going to make. What a brilliant video and what a great way to upgrade my skills. Thank you.
You are very welcomed. So glad you found this useful. I think this is such a nice finish for sheer and lightweight garments. I really wanted to make a tutorial that wouldn’t seem intimidating even for beginners. If you sew a lot with linens, you may also like my tutorial on a single layer pocket. It’s not a patch pocket as the bag is under the top layer. It is also a beautiful finish for lightweight fabrics. Thanks for watching😊
@@NotchesSewing Yes I will watch the single layer pocket one too. I've actually pinned your TH-cam page to my browser so I don't lose it and can refer to many of your excellent videos. I'm not happy with the pockets I put into side seams . A single layer one sounds much more elegant. Thank you very much.
This was exactly what I needed to learn about sewing a vent in a French seam! Easy to see each step, and the verbal explanations as you did each step were immensely helpful! Thanks so much. And I’m now a subscriber! 😃
Saw this method in Threads magazine. Love that you did a video for it. I keep a reference notebook for things like this so I'm definitely additing your video to my reference list. Thank you so much. Love a visual.
Thanks so much for letting me know. I went and had a look at the magazine article. The method is pretty much the same but follow my instructions as it will be easier and stronger with less stress at the top of split. I will be adding more videos to my channel in future Cheers
@@NotchesSewing you're right about the stress point. I immediately noticed that difference in your video. I'll be using your improved method. Thanks again.
You’re video has just saved me. I am wanting to do a split hem for my graded design project in college and I had no idea where to start. Thank you so much 🙌🏼🙏🏼
Thank you so much. I followed your step by step instructions on splits at the bottom of a silk Kaftan I'm making. Because it's silk and I'm french seaming the sides I had no idea how I was going to perfectly intergrate the french seams into the splits until I found your instructional video. Worked out perfectly. You are a star xx
Wonderful! I’m so glad to hear it worked out for you. I’m sure that it looks fantastic. It’s a really beautiful finish especially for silk. Please have a look at some of my other tutorials. Thanks for watching😊
Thank you so much for this instructional video, I'm embarrassed to say how many times I watched it before attempting to sew on my first garment (a cotton/linen blend shirt for my son). Happy to report, it worked perfectly and I sewed the underarm of the short sleeves at the same time as the sides and split with the french seams. Now I just have to garner the courage to do the last step in this make-buttonholes! Think I need a glass of wine first.
Thanks for sharing! Glad to hear this. May I suggest doing a couple of test buttonholes on some scrap to find the best settings for your fabric and style. Better to throw out scraps than have to try and unpick anything. 😊
This is amazing! Yours was the first video that I choose and I don't need to search any further. This is so professional and neat and easy to follow. I have just shortened a blouse with slits and was wondering how to do this. Thank you so much :)
Glad it was helpful! I actually researched a lot to see if there were any other videos before making this one. As far as I know there is no other video with this method. Only an easier version that you turn the sides of splits first and then catch the top ends into the french seam. Thanks so much for watching. Please share and have a look at some of my other videos. More to come!
You are so welcome! You may even want to add a small piece of ribbon across the top of the split on the inside to give it more strength. You don’t want it to split when you get in and out of car etc..

argh! i wish i'd found this four weeks ago. profoundly helpful, and as far as i can tell the only video covering this particular combination of french seam and side split. thank you for providing such an excellent and precise tutorial!
Yes I had researched before I made this video and as far as I I know, this is the only video tutorial on this finish. Thanks for watching. What did you make 4 weeks ago?
@@NotchesSewing I decided to get on board the pandemic internet fad of making a 1600s pirate shirt. only, in my infinite ridiculousness, I decided to make it a learning process for French seams as it had every element you'd hate to do, cuffs, collar, neck split, side splits, and inserted sleeves... and then I chose jersey fabric... because apparently i hate myself =D honestly though, it came out so comfy and cozy, and great for summer heat. I'm making another one hopefully with some learning picked up from the previous, and now from you!
Jersey !!to learn French seams??!!! what a challenge for yourself.😃. A pirate shirt is beautiful though. Do it with lightweight linen this time. I do have videos for french seams and also true flat felled seams ( and with pockets) if you want more challenge. Always test out on scraps if you can so if you bugger it up, there’s no unpicking. Just toss it and you know what not to do for the good project. Thanks again for watching. Please have a look at some of my other videos. I have some good tips and tricks. Cheers!
Thanks Yeon! I really wanted to make a clear step by step tutorial so people wouldn’t be “afraid” of attempting this . I hope this helps. Please support my channel by sharing and checking out some of my other videos🙏😊

@@NotchesSewing i just did, i am making a organza blouse and this seam looks gorgeous, even in this buttery (very unforgiving) fabric. I will! Hope you have a fantastic weekend
I have been wanting to do this to a couple pairs of my jeans & shorts but couldn’t figure out how it’s done. Thank you so much for this fantastic tutorial!!!

Just about to go tackle the chiffon layer of my daughter's wedding dress, and your video is super clear and helpful. Thank you so much! I was trying to wrap my head around how to deal with the zipper opening, and I am going to use this technique :)
Thank you! Fairly new to sewing, wanted to do French hem on a sleeve to a cuff and couldn't figure out how...this will be tucked away in my arsenal as I move forward in my projects . This was for Vogue 9331... you made look so easy!
@@NotchesSewing french seams are my prefered seams as i dont own a serger, but i've been really struggling with sleeves and other curved seams, to keep them looking clean, crips and not bulky (i've noticed my linen shirts and trousers as well as some cotton tunics are all construdted by french seams). do you have any wisdom on that? would be much appreciated
You are very welcome. Thanks for watching. Please share and have a look at my at some of my other videos for more sewing tricks and tips. More to come. Cheers!
Thanks for the sub! Yes I had researched every available video out there. There are lots on plain french seam or one with small turned split but nothing with the angled finish. You’ll really like this on fine fabric clothing. I was hoping to take the “fear” out of doing this. Please share and have a look at some of my other videos. Cheers!
I can't thank you enough for this! I've been looking for a tutorial on this for years! French seams are my favourite for frail, airy fabrics and it's been a mystery for me how to tackle the issue! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!
Glad I could help! Try it out on some scrap before cutting the good delicate fabric. I love this finish as well especially for very fine fabrics. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Please share and check out some of my other videos. Cheers and have a great day!
@@NotchesSewing it goes without saying that I've watched all your videos and subscribed! Keep it up! We need people with your knowledge! Greetings from Greece!
Thank you I appreciate that. I was hoping it was very clear without too much information at once. Thanks for watching. Please have a look for more tutorials on my channel. Cheers!
So glad you think so! It’s a beautiful finish so hope you have fun doing it. Try it out on some scrap first so you don’t need to unpick anything if you don’t get it right on the first go. I’ll be doing a video for a split with a flat fell seam soon so please subscribe and turn on all notifications. Cheers!
Again a perfect tutorial. The result is perfect and makes a lot of sense with your clear explanation and demonstration. Thanks ! PS: I second the demand for the flat-felled seam version.
You're very welcome! I have so many videos I need to make….. It’ll come at some point. Thanks for the kind words. Another TH-camr actually left a comment previously calling me an amateur and then left a link to His video….. Then he couldn’t even do the split and said he was out of practice…………. Not cool🙃
@@NotchesSewing well there seems to ALWAYS be that negative one or two in every comments section. You are much appreciated from what I can see in the comments. I’ve just found you, but others are equally as impressed. All types of baby items would be good for me, thanks for asking.
Yeah it was from an actual fashion designer too and whenI checked out his channel, he couldn’t even do it properly……. Once upon a time many years ago, I had a children’s clothing business. Wish I kept all the patterns….. . Thanks for watching🙏
Glad I could help. I’ll be making a video for a flat fell seam with split soon. Please subscribe and turn on all notifications for it. Please share and check out some of my other videos. Cheers!😊
Thank you so much!! I'm making boxer shorts for my husband copying his favourite brand that has this split. I'm self taught so had no way to figure how this was made even with the original shorts as templates. I'm subscribing!!
Wonderful! Self taught is great because you never stop learning. I always try to figure ways to make things easier so I hope this helps. Make sure to do the last bit of topstitching for extra strength. I know guys can be a bit rough on their clothing and that’ll be a weak point for shorts. I’ll also be adding classes on Skillshare soon too. All the best!

Let me know what you think. Have a great day!!😊🙏
This is just what I was looking for!
Great! Thanks for watching😊
Just about to go tackle the chiffon layer of my daughter's wedding dress, and your video is super clear and helpful. Thank you so much! I was trying to wrap my head around how to deal with the zipper opening, and I am going to use this technique :)
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you! Fairly new to sewing, wanted to do French hem on a sleeve to a cuff and couldn't figure out how...this will be tucked away in my arsenal as I move forward in my projects . This was for Vogue 9331... you made look so easy!
Wonderful! Practice with scraps first. Be precise and it’ll look great!😊
@@NotchesSewing Thanks...worked like a charm..it looks great!
Thank you this blew my mind
You’re very welcome. Hope it helps. Cheers!
wow this is so clean and professional and clear, thank you, you really contributed to quality of my upcoming sewing projects
Wow, thank you! I am so happy to hear that as that was my goal to make it less scary and straight forward. ( not sure why all the thumbs down??) 😊
@@NotchesSewing french seams are my prefered seams as i dont own a serger, but i've been really struggling with sleeves and other curved seams, to keep them looking clean, crips and not bulky (i've noticed my linen shirts and trousers as well as some cotton tunics are all construdted by french seams). do you have any wisdom on that? would be much appreciated
Very professional. Thanks for sharing.
You are very welcome. Thanks for watching. Please share and have a look at my at some of my other videos for more sewing tricks and tips. More to come. Cheers!
it is a beautiful finish, it is helpful. Love it, precise and simple to understand.
Thank you so much! Glad you like it and appreciate the feedback. Please share and have a look at my other videos. Cheers!
Best tutorial on this particular topic. I thank you very much. Just subscribed 😊
Thanks for the sub! Yes I had researched every available video out there. There are lots on plain french seam or one with small turned split but nothing with the angled finish. You’ll really like this on fine fabric clothing. I was hoping to take the “fear” out of doing this. Please share and have a look at some of my other videos. Cheers!
I can't thank you enough for this! I've been looking for a tutorial on this for years! French seams are my favourite for frail, airy fabrics and it's been a mystery for me how to tackle the issue! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!
Glad I could help! Try it out on some scrap before cutting the good delicate fabric. I love this finish as well especially for very fine fabrics. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Please share and check out some of my other videos. Cheers and have a great day!
@@NotchesSewing it goes without saying that I've watched all your videos and subscribed! Keep it up! We need people with your knowledge! Greetings from Greece!
Thank you! I’ve got a Greek hubby!
@@NotchesSewing that's brilliant! I hope he cooks too lol 🤣
He tries…….🤣
How helpful!! Thank you so much for sharing!!!
You are so welcome! Glad you enjoyed it. Please share and have a look at some of my other videos. Have a grea day!
Great instructional video. You covered it all.
Thank you I appreciate that. I was hoping it was very clear without too much information at once. Thanks for watching. Please have a look for more tutorials on my channel. Cheers!
Excellent tutorial. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Just what I was looking for! Thanks ❤
You're welcome 😊
You make it look like I could possibly do this myself! Amazing and so beautiful. Thank you
Thank you. Just practice on scraps and keep the sample handy. Be as precise as possible for a nice finish😊
Sheer genius!
Thank you😊
Thank you so much. This was perfectly explained and quite to the point!
Glad it was helpful! I appreciate your feedback. Hope you give it a go🙂
Thank you so much, so well explained and such a neat professional finish! Going to go give it a try on a shift I am making.
So glad you think so! It’s a beautiful finish so hope you have fun doing it. Try it out on some scrap first so you don’t need to unpick anything if you don’t get it right on the first go. I’ll be doing a video for a split with a flat fell seam soon so please subscribe and turn on all notifications. Cheers!
Again a perfect tutorial. The result is perfect and makes a lot of sense with your clear explanation and demonstration. Thanks ! PS: I second the demand for the flat-felled seam version.
You're very welcome! I have so many videos I need to make….. It’ll come at some point. Thanks for the kind words. Another TH-camr actually left a comment previously calling me an amateur and then left a link to His video….. Then he couldn’t even do the split and said he was out of practice…………. Not cool🙃
This is really helpful and really well explained thank you!!
Glad it was helpful Shelley. Thanks for watching. Please share and have a look at my other videos. Cheers!😊
That's was beautiful sewing!
Thank you! You can do it too. Just practice on scrap fabric and it’s not that scary😊. Please share and have a look at some of my other videos. Cheers!
Brilliant!!!! Thank you!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

You are so talented
Thank you. Please share and check out some of my other tutorials. Cheers!
So IMPRESSED!!!
Thanks Laurie. Appreciate it😊. Someone actually called me an amateur on this video……..
@@NotchesSewing well there seems to ALWAYS be that negative one or two in every comments section. You are much appreciated from what I can see in the comments. I’ve just found you, but others are equally as impressed. All types of baby items would be good for me, thanks for asking.
Yeah it was from an actual fashion designer too and whenI checked out his channel, he couldn’t even do it properly…….
Once upon a time many years ago, I had a children’s clothing business. Wish I kept all the patterns….. . Thanks for watching🙏
Thank you this is exactly what I was looking for
Glad I could help. I’ll be making a video for a flat fell seam with split soon. Please subscribe and turn on all notifications for it. Please share and check out some of my other videos. Cheers!😊
@@NotchesSewing Hello, looking forward to your tutorial on flat fell seam with split😊
This was spectacular
Thanks Danielle. Glad it’s helpful!
Thank you so much!! I'm making boxer shorts for my husband copying his favourite brand that has this split. I'm self taught so had no way to figure how this was made even with the original shorts as templates. I'm subscribing!!
Wonderful! Self taught is great because you never stop learning. I always try to figure ways to make things easier so I hope this helps. Make sure to do the last bit of topstitching for extra strength. I know guys can be a bit rough on their clothing and that’ll be a weak point for shorts.
I’ll also be adding classes on Skillshare soon too.
All the best!
@@NotchesSewing Thanks!!
I now have a class on Skillshare you may find helpful as well. You have 14 days free access with my link.
Cheers, Angela

This was so clear and easy to understand. Thank you. How would you sew a flat felled seam with a split?
It’s a bit of a different method as the split is over lapped
Thank you , you're exellent
Thank you!😊
amazing explanation, thanks a lot!
Glad it was helpful!
