#Crochet and #Sewing folks, I need your help.
I'm making a crochet pencil case. I'm planning to line it with some cotton fabric.
There are three separate panels (two in the images) to be sewn together. Should I line the crochet pieces before I sew them together or after?
I will be doing the work by hand as I don't have an easily accessible machine.
My sewing experience is limited to reattaching a button and making one or two wonky pouches, so assume I know next to nothing about it.
@allysseriordan if i were making it, i think i'd go for a free-hanging, inserted pouch only attached at the top -- it would carry the weight and prevent the crochet from over stretching, and i think it would look neater too
For a crochet combo i'd sew the lining pouch fully before attaching it, and then i'd hand sew it on the inside, maybe to the zipper? Or maybe all the way through both the zipper and the crochet fabric, but not just to the crochet, the zipper fabric is tougher đŸ¤”
