Your comment that you make the lining a touch bigger was interesting. I've always been nervous about linings, but this is the summer I plan to grit my teeth and get over that. It has seemed to me that since going around the human body forms a tube of cloth, that two layers of cloth would by necessity need the outer layer to be a slight bit bigger than the inner layer. Therefore, if the inner lining was cut the same size as the outer fashion fabric you would already have some built-in ease. From what you wrote, that isn't true enough - you always build in extra ease in the lining? I had no idea. Ok then. It doesn't start sticking out from places if there is extra like that? I suppose I sound a bit of a simpleton, but that just surprised me and I'm trying to learn about linings so I figured I'd ask an expert! If only I could come to class with you, but it simply can't happen right now.
