This should help some .... Simplicity Seam Basics I still use my trusy Vogue Sewing Book more than anything! I'll see if I can get the page scanned and email it to you tonight or tomorrow morning ZIA!

Basically you just sew a plain seam where you want it to be then press it to one side, trim the bottom layer back to 1/4" and sew the parallell seam 5/8" or wherever you want the seam to be. Ideally you should only sew through 2 layers of fabric, the outside layer and the one layer of the seam allowance.
