FABRIC TIP
Interfacing Doesn't Always Have to Match

Fashionable wool tweed fabrics are itchy and bulky -- especially when used as a facing on a skirt waist. A wool crepe that matches the dominant shade of the tweed is a perfect substitute. It has enough body when interfaced and provides a thin, smooth surface inside your skirt. No more bulk or itch!

-- Linda Przybyszewski
