Seperate linings for Bias cut garments
I recently contructed a sleeveless bias cut silk organza dress. Problem is the seperate slip I contructed on the straight grain….when I bend or sit the dress hikes up to reveal the slip!!! I am presuming I should contruct the slip cut on the bias also correct??? Thanks

Lining for Bias
Hi Bfoppe
My daughter has a bias dress that has a stretch lining in skin tone that is a good bit (maybe 8 inches) shorter in length.

Sure. If you think about it, it only makes sense: The (free-floating, not caught in the side seams) lining should have the same 'give' as the fashion fabric. But a stretch lining should work fine generally.
