Book Description

A detailed analysis of the fundamentals of different types of stitches, seams and sewing threads in use, explaining how they are produced, and examining their optimum design, performance, and modes of failure, as revealed in research carried out over the last 60 years of the 20th century. The emphasis is on conventional machine-sewn seams for apparel, but developments in threadless joining and non-apparel applications are also considered, along with a critical review of current test methods. There are 250 references to specialist articles and other sources of information.
