My latest craze is making bags out of old clothes (such a cool way to hang on to things you like but never wear!), but since my stitching isn’t the prettiest, I need to line the bags and just wondering what’s the best fabric for this? I’m not bothered about color, I can dye to suit. I’m thinking heavy satin, because it’s easy to measure, cut and sew, but am I on the right track or way off?
