I'm a beginner - trying to sew nursing clothes for myself and some outfits for my three girls (ages 3 1/2, 2, and a 3 month old). Needless to say, I don't get much time to sew, but I'm learning to do things in small steps and to celebrate the completion of those small steps. Anyway, you are an inspiration - keeping me motivated even on the days (or in the weeks) when I don't have chance to sit at my machine.<BR/>I have a question about lining a skirt. The skirt pattern doesn't call for a lining; it's a very simple nearly straight skirt - just curved a bit at the hip - with an elastic waistband. Will I use the skirt pattern to make a lining for it? will the lining be attached just under the waist band? Or Should I treat the lining and skirt as one and make the casing for the elastic with the lining there also?<BR/>I'd appreciate any help you can give me!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5405339236965946425.post-48937703610900771112008-04-17T23:24:00.000-04:002008-04-17T23:24:00.000-04:00Loving your "Ode to Camelot".Loving your "Ode to Camelot".Faye Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02781186043996633965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5405339236965946425.post-89987301695014867932008-04-17T12:03:00.000-04:002008-04-17T12:03:00.000-04:00Amazing wardrobe!
