Can I be honest? Making clothes with lining is not my strong suit. And by not my strong suit I mean I typically don’t make clothes that are lined. But then I saw the 90s Dress by Ellie & Mac and I knew I had to make a change in my sewing life.

Ready? Set? Sew! Sewing with lining made me nervous until I tried the new girls 90s Dress by Ellie & Mac. It earned 5 needles from me so see why here.

90s Dress by Ellie & Mac

This dress is the cutest thing this season. The bodice lined and the skirt is unlined. The dress features a curved hem with hi-low options depending on your bodice options. There is one option front and two options for the back and one skirt option.

Constructing The Pattern

On a scale of 1-10 for ease it’s about a 6. You have to gather both of the skirts and attach the lined bodice to both the arms and skirt. That can be kind of hard if you aren’t a pro. Outside of this, it’s really easy and I’m no longer afraid of sewing with lining!
