Nail your LINING every time! | How to line a sleeved dress

[@bevpotter9938]

Yes I wanted to see how you attach the unlined sleeves to the edges. The video title implied this would be a part of the video.

exactly

[@xUnderwaterGiRLx]

will you show us how to deal with the sleeves too? :)

[@chinenyeanoka4358]

Thanks for this. Was hoping to see how the lining would have a near finishing at the armhole when you add the sleeves.

[@tracygeorge1855]

Hello - this is a fabulous tutorial - which video shows the sleeves?

[@lestranged]

I also like to line some garments I make. It keeps light colored fabrics from being too see-through, it keeps skirts from clinging or creeping up, it's easier to put on a lined jacket over a sweater, especially when you line the sleeves, lining makes everything slip right on and off. It looks classy when you roll up your sleeve and there is lining instead of a fast-fashion serged hem.

you're most definitely right!

[@PungentPixie]

Thanks for sharing your expertise! All of the tutorials I’ve seen are for sleeveless dresses, so yours solved my sleeve questions.

[@JulietUzor_]

Hello and thanks so so much for your feedback. It truly means a lot. 🎉

Thank You for this video and the invisible zipper (with the foot link). I've just started making garments again after a 30yr gap and have forgotten so many things. I'm just about to make a calf length princess line dress that needs lining but the pattern doesn't include lining and it has a 22" zip. The two video's are really useful.

You are so welcome!

I can line skirts ok, but jackets and dresses I've yet to try. Everytime I look for a pattern, I always look for something without lining because I'm apprehensive about it. But my aim to to tackle some things that need lining, as I want to make more of what I buy. This vid was superb. Thank you

[@JulietUzor_]

You can do it! 😃

[@elaine58100]

Thank you so much for this. To me a lining makes the garment so slinky next to your skin and make you feel like the garment is really finished like a high end garment. Hope you show how to do the sleeves or is there no need to line them? Would be interested to know what you think? :)

[@sallydingle321]

Hi Juliet, I'm the same as Fay really, and I must get making those linings. I totally agree with you, that it finishes off the outfit so much better and helps things hang great I'm sure..not to mention that it helps your skirt from hitching up if your wearing tights 😋. Great tutorial .... thanks so much Juliet 👌💓😘

[@JulietUzor_]

So true, Sally! Also, thank you so so much

[@bekindalways4387]

Wow, this tutorial is just what I needed. ❤️ Thanks so much.

[@kimidoodle]

Yes to lining! Especially for something like an eyelet or semi sheer or see through !!

[@JulietUzor_]

That’s true 🥰🥰🥰

[@jopeacock1424]

I’ve always dreaded linings but this week I have done the invisible zip as per your video AND lined as this one. Thank you thank you x

[@JulietUzor_]

🥰🥰I'm so glad it helped!

[@lizzyscorner]

I always ended up hand stitching my lining.. now I will give it a go with the machine 🤗

[@JulietUzor_]

You can do it! Go for it!

[@lizzyscorner]

@@JulietUzor_ I will!!

[@sandymcculloch5799]

Love garments that are lined.

[@manifydesigns]

Such an amazing tutorial Nne! Am back from yt break and I miss you

[@JulietUzor_]

Welcome back!

[@ksunk1]

I know this is a couple of years old, but had a question. Can I do this method of sewing along the zipper if I'm putting a lining in a little girl's dress where the bodice lining and skirt lining are sewn together, then sewing the whole thing to the zipper as you did with just the bodice? Thanks for the video!

[@CarolinaQVargas]

Excellent explanation! Thank you! I have just subscribed to your channel! Regards from Brazil

[@maryaston1607]

Love the video, great tips thank you x

[@isiboruyi799]

Thnks sooo much for this!!!! Pls can I do dis for a lace dress?

[@JulietUzor_]

Oh my,,, you most definitely can.

[@isiboruyi799]

Thnks so much!!!!!

[@annettedavis3833]

If your dress has sleeves how do you add them in?

[@JulietUzor_]

Hello Annette, Thanks so much for the question. For me, if the dress has sleeves, I don't line the sleeves. What I do is I sew the sleeves on to the dress and dress lining at the armhole. The only time I add lining to sleeves is jackets or coats.

[@Indydi]

This is exactly the type of dress I want to line, but unfortunately, there is so much flipping around of the fabric without actually showing what you're doing, and...I thought this was how to line a sleeved dress? But not a word about sleeves and how to attach them.

[@elizabethsmyth7769]

Oh pleeeeeze can you explain how you put in the sleeves...most videos cover sleeveless dresses....

[@JulietUzor_]

Ok I’ll work on making a video on it in the near future

[@grumpysincebirth]

first wash fabric to shrink....
