   We can definitely say
   1. {Sut veH QISlu'bogh} "the stitched boundary of a garment", or even
   2. {Hampong veH QISlu'bogh} "the stitched boundary of a wound".

   We can also say
   3. {weSjech 'ay'mey HeH tay'} "the together-edge of pieces of fabric"

   Not terrible circumlocutions. But how might we say "Undo those seams and resew them", or differentiate a "seam" in (1) from the consent of a "hem"?
   Or talk about when seams themselves intersect with each other?

   I think this idea is distinct enough to warrant its own word.

   I this entry intended to cover other kinds of "seams", like two sheets of metal joined with rivets, or two sheets of paper joined with tape/glue?

   As a QISwI', I strongly support this word!
