Fully lined jacket, no cuffs - the easy way! DL

[boingo82]

This is my preferred method for sewing a fully lined jacket. In my opinion it's easier because you don't have to sew the sleeve ends in the round. I always hate that part!

You can use this method for any jacket or lined dress without sleeve cuffs. This is roughly similar to the way I create a reversible sleeveless dress, too.

The pattern used in this tutorial is the Ghost Jacket from the 6/2007 Ottobre issue.

Lovely! I think I may have done my first Ghostie jacket similar to this, but forgot what to do for my second one and it was awful. I'll print this out for next time :D

I've never seen it done this way - much easier than matching up those darn sleeve holes. Thanks!
