Etymology

The word "seam" originated from the Old English word "seam," which meant a joining or junction. It has been used in the context of sewing for centuries, referring to the line where two pieces of fabric are sewn together. Seams are essential in garment construction, providing structure and durability to the finished product. Over time, the term has expanded to be used metaphorically in various contexts, such as describing the joining of two ideas or concepts.
