Burda Style For people who sew

Turn the fabric back to the correct side making sure the corners are nice and square. Press the top edge flat and pin the lining to the zip. Handstitch the lining to the zip using your favorite invisible stitch. Make sure the stitches do not show on the outer dress fabric.

  I can do a tutorial for that too if you like.

  I thought of an easy way to do that after I had done this tutorial.

  Thanks for the post. I followed every step till the end, upon which I was a little disappointed – nothing wrong with your tutorial. Its just that I was hoping to learn how to machine sew the lining onto the zipper tape in? stead of hand stitching. I always look at store bought clothes and the lining is always perfectly sewn onto the zipper tape but I have never learned how to immitate that. Any idea how to do that, please?
