Seam Guide
A seam is the stitched line where two pieces of fabric are joined together. For finished curtains, seams may be needed when the selected width or length exceeds the available fabric size. In this case, additional fabric is carefully joined to create the required curtain size.
This construction method is common for wider or longer custom curtains. It is industry-standard practice and does not indicate a defect or quality issue. In most installations, seam blends naturally into the folds of the curtain once hung.
Vertical Seam (Double Width): For curtains exceeding certain size limits, Vertical Seam (Double Width) may be required. Since size limits vary by header style and fabric collection, pleated headers may need extra fabric width for proper fullness. Two fabric widths are sewn together vertically to achieve the desired fullness and coverage.
No Seam Required: Finished curtains within specific width and length ranges can be made without seams.
Seam requirements depending on: Header style, fabric collection, and curtain size.
