unsewn
Lacking any stitches
Unsewn means not stitched together, either never having been sewn or having come apart: The unsewn seams left raw edges exposed.
In bookbinding, unsewn binding uses glue rather than thread to hold pages together.
The word can describe fabric, garments, or anything typically joined by needle and thread.
