Lining is almost always a huge effing problem in my experience. Robs' coat is no exception. It's annoying the ever loving heck out of me.

***New Friends - I'm not normally all sewing all the time. After this Saturday I promise to talk about other topics!

I haven't sewn garb in forever but I can agree on cursing linings.

The image in my head was this red linen coat lined in bright blue "silk". Then I realized that both the fabrics are so slippery that the best way of actually making a garment that was reasonably symmetrical was to either sandwich or seam and turn the fabric and the lining. Which does not give me the gorgeous flashes of bright blue tails I had wanted. But oh well. The kid is three and will be the only Cossack on the scene, I'm sure. I don't think anyone but me will be judging how tidy the inside of his coat is.

I must confess to skip lining whenever possible... :)

I am dreading lining.
