A flannel lined jean skirt! I am amazed at how much I love this skirt, I want to go get more flannel to make another one right away! The flannel makes the inside so soft, it's like wearing a blanket. I stitched the flannel pieces to the side seams. Then on the top of the front side, I used the iron on hem tape so I wouldn't have a seam line there. On the back, I sewed a seam on the waistband. I bought 3 yards of plain blue flannel, and I used most of it. I do have enough left to line one of Rebekah's jean skirts though. If I would not have used flannel to add into the front and back outside triangle panels, I probably could have gotten away with 2 yards. The total cost of this skirt was $15 ($3 for the jeans, $10 for flannel, $2 for thread).
You can get some really cute flannel...i bet you could make some super cute little girl skirts!
ReplyDeleteI know! I wanted to get a cute pretty one, but I figured since I've never tried to line a skirt before, I'd go with the cheaper stuff. Did I mentions it's soooooooo soft!
