Mire<\/a> has stopped by from the Advisors Circle<\/a> to show you how to line an unlined dress like the\u00a0Gelato Dress<\/a>. She also added an elastic waist. Read on to learn how she did it.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"How<\/a><\/p>\n

I usually wear dresses with tights, so I like my dresses to be lined.<\/p>\n

When I made the Gelato Dress<\/a>, I lined it and added an elastic waist. Here’s how I did it.<\/p>\n

How to line an unlined dress<\/h2>\n

I sewed the main dress out of Nani Iro linen, and used stashed\u00a0Venezia lining fabric (polyamide\/triacetate) for the lining.<\/p>\n

To line the dress, I needed to cut two pieces from the lining fabric: the front and back dress. I cut these pieces a little bit shorter than the dress pieces.<\/p>\n

I fused strips of interfacing to the neckline of the dress for stability.<\/p>\n

To assemble the dress, I sewed the shoulder seams and the side seams of the main dress and the bodice dress. Then I pinned the lining to the dress at the neckline and stitched around the neckline.<\/p>\n

I clipped the seam allowances and understitched the neckline to keep the lining from peeking out.<\/p>\n

\"How<\/a><\/p>\n

Then, I turned the dress right-side out and pressed the neckline. Next, I basted the lining to the dress at the armholes. That completed the additional steps of adding the lining to the dress.<\/p>\n

I then treated the lining and dress as one piece at the armholes while I attached the sleeves.<\/p>\n

Finally, I hemmed the dress and the lining and made a thread chain at the seam allowances of each side to keep the lining from moving around.<\/p>\n

\"Adding<\/a><\/p>\n

Adding an elastic waist to a lined Gelato Dress<\/h2>\n

[Note: Liesl has a tutorial here<\/a> for adding an elastic casing to an unlined<\/em> Gelato Dress, but adding the casing to a lined<\/em> dress actually requires less stitching!).<\/p>\n

To add the elastic waist, I used the method from the Oliver + S Roller Skate Dress + Tunic<\/a>. I marked where I wanted the casing to be, and then sewed one line of stitching all the way around the dress at that point. Then I sewed a second line of stitching almost all the way around, leaving a few inches to insert my elastic.<\/p>\n

After inserting the elastic into the casing that I created between the dress and lining layers, I sewed the ends together. Finally, I completed the second line of stitching to close up the casing.<\/p>\n

\"How<\/a><\/p>\n

This is a very useful tutorial that <\/em>you could also use this tutorial to line a number of our other garment patterns, including blouses.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
