Lining, Underlining Explained Many fall and winter paterns suggest lining and underlining. But sometimes home sewers become confused about the difference between the two. Extension clothing specialists at Pennsylvania State Universtiy offer this explanation of when to use linings and underlinings. Lining is made as though it were a separate garment and then is sewn to the finished garment along the edges. Underlining is cut and stitched to the wrong side of the fabric before any seams are sewn. Farm Women Calendar Saturday, November 27 1:30 p.m. Farm Women Society 4, home of Mrs. Richard Wile, 129 E.

MUMMAU FIRESTONE 53 E. MAIN ST. Underlining is then treated as part of the fashion fabric, stit ched into all the darts and seams. Lining is done primarily to provide a finish to the inside of a garment, covering all raw seam edges. It is also useful when the fabric is rough or irritating to the skin. Lining will help to preserve the shape of a garment, but un derlining may be needed to make the shape in the first place. Lining fabric is smooth to the touch and lightweight enough not to interfere with the hang of the garment. It should need the same care as the fashion fabric. Lapp Wins Drawing Jonas L. Lapp, Paradise RDI, was winner of a Jake Ebersole Captain’s Chair at the drawing recently of the W. L. Zimmerman and Sons Department Store, Intercourse.
