This is a tutorial on how to make seams on clothes using uv maps.

Depending on how mesh was mapped it can be real nightmare to match textures you're putting on it so that  they would look nice. One solution to this is to add seams. Because if there is a seam then it is perfectly natural that pattern on fabric will not match on sides. 
It's really a simple thing to do.
Few weeks ago needlecream  asked me to explain the process, so I assembled a small tutorial on how I do it. This is is a bit more user friendly version of it (I hope, I suck at explaining).
And big thank you to her for encouraging me to put this up here.
