NEW WAIST BAND LINING IN TROUSERS.
Remove old one, and iron out smooth and use for pattern. Cut new one out and baste in and fell around tops and down sides, and fasten at pockets to hold in place. If new buttons are required, sew them on before new lining is placed, so as not to sew through the lining. Repair trousers where needed.
To repair sleeves that are worn out around the bottom run a basting thread around both sleeves five inches from the bottom of cuff, to hold lining in place, then rip sleeve lining around the bottom, unfasten the turn up of sleeve from the wigan, (darn sleeve edge if necessary when it is worn through), now baste up firmly one eighth of an inch, or as much more as the sleeve will allow and still be of sufficient length, (run basting one-quarter inch from bottom), fasten the turn up back to the wigan with basting (this basting is left in); now let sleeve lining come down, and if it is longer than to the end of cuff; cut off what comes below.
Then turn sleeve lining in on the turn up two inches from the bottom of cuff with basting stitches, and fell lining with silk same color as the cloth or lining. Finish both sleeves the same. Remove basting, turn sleeves right side out; and press all around cuff as explained. When felling do not take long stitches, short ones look neater and are stronger and work will have a better appearance when finished. Should the sleeve be finished with stitching around the cuff, finish the same when repairing. Sew buttons on, this completes the repairing of sleeves at the bottom.
