Abstract

Selecting, preparing, interfacing and lining denim, as well as denim sewing techniques, are covered in this guide.

Denim is popular all over the world. Jeans made of denim are worn by millions of people. The term denim is derived from the French "serge de Nimes," a twilled fabric made in Nimes, France. It was used as "sail" cloth for ships crossing the Atlantic Ocean.
