Answer: D
A seam that encloses a previously stitched seam is a French seam.
The fabric is first stitched with wrong sides together, the allowance is trimmed, and then the fabric is folded right sides together and stitched again so that the first seam and its raw edges are enclosed inside the second. The result is a neat 'seam within a seam', used for sheer fabrics.
A lapped seam overlaps one piece on another and stitches through both. A fused seam is joined by heat-bonding, not stitching, and a rolled seam rolls the edge into a narrow hem. ('Beam' in the stem stands for seam.)
