8 Mock flat fell seam (also Welt seam)
This is a seam which looks a lot like Flat fell seam but is easier to make.
Unlike the flat fell seam here the raw edge is not turned under. So this seam will have exposed raw edges of the

be seen. This is a great seam for a bulky fabric like felt or synthetic leather. (Fig 27)
