I don't think you would have to worry about that. I make 1/8 inch seams many times. The smaller the piece, the smaller I make my seam. Eighth inch would be the smallest, but sometimes mine are smaller if I'm sewing bias-wise across a seam. Then I just make sure I have a few threads of each side in the seam allowance. Scrap quilts sometimes have these kinds of seams.
