This photo shows three views of stitching on the same natural colored tunic. I still wear this one (it's about three years old), and have only had to repair one seam where the sewing thread broke. Grr. It's unfortunate that for illustration purposes the thread is the same color as the tunic, but then, the thread was unravelled from the tunic, and that's to be expected.
The "inside" and "outside seam are really the same seam, with the fabric turned over. The "hem" is the double-fold and stitched edge you may be looking for for your sleeves. This one is a sleeve as it turns out. PM if you can't figure out from the photo what's going on with the seams, and I'll see if I can help. :wink:
