Skirt Lining Replacement

ID: 169683

Description: I will demonstrate how to repair the torn...

Steps:

1. Cut out the old or damaged skirt lining. This can be done using a pair of scissors, or a razor blade/seam ripper if you have one.
2. Blades might give you a neater finish after this step but take longer to use.
3. Be careful when using sharp objects.

4. After threading the needle, take some new lining (chiffon or silk material), iron it out, and make sure the lining isn't longer than the actual skirt.

5. Gently insert the threaded needle. Be careful not to prick your finger.
6. Push through the skirt fabric from below.
7. Pull the needle all the way out to form a stitch.

8. Continue with step 3 until you create stitches around the whole waistband of your skirt.
9. It should look somewhat like this when you make it halfway around the waistband of the skirt.

10. Cut out extra fabric if you have any, and here's what the waistline of your skirt should look like.
11. Try it on!
