Picking a lining fabric is a little bit like matchmaking! πŸ’žβ 
⁠
You want to pick a lining that goes with your main fabric- for example, a silky rayon bemberg is a perfect match for this medium-weight wool coating. For a cotton eyelet, a smooth and lightweight cotton fabric would complement it well. For a rain jacket, a removable flannel lining might be just the thing!⁠
⁠
We chat about lining styles, methods, fabrics, and more in Episode 187 - listen in if you missed it or if you just want a refresher. ⁠

Are you traveling this holiday season? βœˆοΈπŸš—πŸ§³ Bring your sewing with you!⁠
⁠
We know, holiday visits are usually pretty busy. But if you can squeeze a little bit of sewing in during the quieter moments, it might make the difference between frazzled and festive. Sewing is such a nice brain reset. Here are a few ideas for bringing your sewing along with you:⁠
⁠
πŸͺ‘ Hand sewing takes up a lot less space than machine sewing. Do some hand finishing on a garment - or do some of the construction steps by hand! It can really improve your skills. ⁠
⁠
πŸͺ‘ Embellish your me-mades or thrift finds with hand embroidery.⁠
⁠
πŸͺ‘ Try out a new hand sewing technique like applique or hexie quilting.⁠
⁠
πŸͺ‘ Bring your machine along and work on whatever makes your heart sing.⁠
⁠
We have a bunch more tips and ideas in Episode 234: Sewing and Travel! (Not to be confused with Episode 273: Sewing FOR Travel, which is about sewing clothes, bags, and accessories BEFORE a trip. πŸ˜‚)⁠

I made this Lordi set from an official Lordi men's shirt. And yes, I know the print on the skirt is upside down, it was intentional! I initially made the skirt to sit a bit too high in the waist (last picture), but have since shortened it from the waistband down. The straps are meant to go around the thighs, making sure the skirt stays where it should.

The top has side darts so it will sit perfectly around the bust, and the neckline is embellished with cone studs.

If you're interested in a similar set, or something else entirely, but made from official merchandise, send me a message here or at [email protected] πŸ–€
