- A New York City lawyer learning to sew (mainly for work) in her non-billable time using fabrics made from natural fibers in an effort to live a more natural life and to reduce the impact on the environment from our fashion waste.
Sewing Machine = Brother SQ9185 purchased from Walmart.com.
New Look 6176 Size 8
Cost per garment (size 8 on the pattern) is rounded up to the nearest higher $0.50.
Dress outer fabric = 1.5 yards of camouflage wool knit from moodfabrics.com (Gray and Black Camouflage Wool Knit) at $24.99/yard.
Lining = 2 yards of China silk from Mood Designer Fabrics from the garment district of New York City at $7/yard.
Zipper = $1.
Total cost of garment = $52.5
Okay ... I admit that I had to watch it several times where the magic happened, the magic being where you sewed the cuff. I've never seen this method before. When I saw you hold up the dress and I saw 'the mess' I nearly flipped. When, when you shook the dress I began to understand what had happened ... I'm not very quick.
The reward was, walking away from your tutuorial having really learned something that will serve me for the rest of my life. Instead of giving me a fish to eat, you have actually taught me to fish for myself. I will always remember you. Thank you so much. Bless you and thank you.

Amazing tutorial, I used to always get confused around the zip and would end up hand stitching it but this is an excellent video. One I will probably watch many times while lining dresses! X
Glad you find it helpful! I made this tutorial because I could not find any on TH-cam on lining a sleeved dress. Stay safe! 😘

Hi, I just came across your channel today and am enjoying it! I’m just starting my sewing journey; and I want to sew and line everything I’ll make as I have sensitive skin lol! Plus, I too am in NYC! Thanks for these series.
Thank you and welcome! Stay safe!!!😘
Thankyou Billie this has been extremely helpful ✂️x
So glad to hear it! I also uploaded a video on how to line a shirt dress (Video #62) if you’re interested. 😘
This is so timely. I'm lining a bodice for the first time today. This is only my 2nd dress, I got New Look 6723 because I just love how yours turned out using this pattern! Working on View B today in a cute daisy cotton fabric. Stay safe and healthy!
Thank you, Jess! My no -dart winter wool dresses were also based on New Look 6723. Stay safe as well!!!
Very useful video. So grateful you didn't use the burrito method. Thanks for such a wonderful tutorial
You’re most welcome! Glad you found it helpful! 😘
I'm using this exact pattern and was wondering how I could add a lining to it so this was extremely helpful! Thank you so much 🥰
You’re welcome! 😘
I want to make a Chinese traditional style dress with short sleeves. Because of the fabric used, I need to put lining inside the dress. I have no clue how to do it especially with a sleeve involved. After this video, I can start making a muslin as a first step for making my Chinese traditional style dress. Thank you.
So glad! 😘
Great video! Thank you!
You are most welcome! 😘
Thank you so much, ma’am. I found this really useful.
You’re most welcome, Prisca! 😁
It looks great! Thanks for the tutorial!
Glad you liked it! 😃
Hi, I found this really helpful and will use your instructions. I love sewing and have made many things but shy away from linings as it’s like upside down thinking for me and I get in a complete muddle. Last two items have had the sleeve linings hanging down a bit..urghh!
I’m glad you find my video helpful! 😘
Thank you
I love your video
Thank you! Hope you find it helpful! 😀
I didn't understand how you did the lining to the sleeves and turn itbout
thank you that was very helpful
You’re most welcome! 😁
Congratulations
Thank you! :)
Hello, thanks for tutorial💓💓is it necessary to finish the raw edges? Please never delete this video it's extremely helpful
It depends on the fabric - if it is prone to fraying, then yes. If not, it is optional if you have a reasonable amount of seam allowance (I use 5/8” or 1.5 cm) though I always serge/overlock the skirt hem just to be safe. 😃
@@billiessewingcorner7213 thanks so much for replying I usually work with viscose rayon or challis I'll try without overlocking (I don't even have an overlocker)😘
If you have a pinking shear, it works great for finishing the edges of delicate fabrics. 😀
@@billiessewingcorner7213yes that's a great idea! Now I'm planning to use pinking shears for the raw edges except the skirt part that is not attached to the shell (for that I'll use the flat felt seam because it stays flat and try to use french seam for the skirt part of the shell.. i hope it works!)
👍🏻
Thanks for the video
Hope you have found the video helpful! 😀
@@billiessewingcorner7213 yes . You can do more of "how to" for basic sewing.
Ok! 😀
Thank you so much for sharing this method. I have never seen it before but I prefer it over the burrito method. Do you think it would work for a fully lined dress with lined sleeves that has a sleeve placket? I have to line the sleeves because the brocade fabric is a bit scratchy next to the skin. Any recommendations?
I think so as long as you are not lining the placket. 😘
Thank you so much ma
You’re most welcome! 😁
Thank you,
Glad you found it helpful! 😃
I don’t understand when you say attach the lining to the outer fabric.Do you not attack the lining to the inside of the dress not the outside.
Hi Billie, you refer to "china silk" in most of your description. I am wondering, what is the actual composition of that material. Is it silk or is it polyester (with a silky satin finish). Can you please clarify. Thank you, Bahar, Letchworth UK
Hi ZBE, China silk is 100% silk. Generally quite thin and used as a lining material. Here is what moodfabrics.com (where I purchase most of my fabrics from) says on this fabric -- “China Silk Fabric is originally referred to as Silk Habotai meaning “soft as down” in Japanese, but it is commonly referred to as China silk due to majority of its production being done in China. Available in many weights, this high quality fabric can be used for linings and lingerie as well as summer blouses and bedding. Due to its characteristic plain weave, China Silk is incredibly sleek and has a hand that is most identified as silk. Ideal for beginner sewers due to its smooth surface.” Thanks and stay safe!!!
I keep getting confused at the sleeve part, I can’t tell which part is folded over and to where? same with the lining. I’m not sure how they touch… the main fabric looks super similar on the wrong side, so it blends in. then I’m not sure how you attached it at the very end… do you have any still photos of this? Or any drawing? Just to aide in the explanation…. Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you!
Hi, right side of both the outer fabric and the lining should touch and be pinned/sewn together. Thanks!
I still don't understand that sleeve....
Hi, Do you give sewing courses?
How did you finish the hem?❤
For the outer fabric, I used the blind hem foot of my machine. For the lining, I just folded it over twice and sewed it down with a straight stitch. Thanks! 😁
Thank you great walk through on this! I will definitely be picking up that pattern for myself! Looks great!
I do have a question. When you made the lining for your dress, I noticed it didnt have the same neckband as the dress itself. How did you actually sew up the lining? just using the same pattern pieces?
Thanks!
Hi Robin - if you overlap the seam allowance of both the neckband piece and the dress pattern piece, you will get a simple shift dress without the neckband! I then traced out the pattern this way for my lining. 😁
Could you dub soft music where there is currently sewing machine noise?
Very informative! Thank you.
So glad! 😃
