I posted a bit ago and got no replies. I would like to know what to
do after I add a hood on a shirt. Am I suppose to sew something over
the seam or leave the seam with rough edges? Please someone answer me
or direct me to a link to explain what to do. I don't have a lot of
sewing experience, so simple is best. Thank you.
If it were me I would trim the seam as much as is possible and use a bias tape to cover the raw edges. Contrasting colours can make a nice feature if you don't have an exact match for the tape.
If your hood is double layered, quite a few of my son's t-shirt ones are you could make the inner one slightly longer at the part where you join to the neck and either over lock/serge the edge and stitch down over the raw seam or turn the edge under over the top of the raw seam and stitch down if you don't have a way to over lock the edge. This would be similar to the way I would stitch down the inside of a waistband so that the stitches sit in the stitch line if the seam you made when attaching the hood.
That's as far as my thinking takes me I hope that helps, I'm not very good at describing the physical in words I hope you can see me waving my hands to explain it properly.
