Drop in lining, navy lamb suede. The suede stretched a little too much so for the next few I’ll have to either change to fabric or tape the suede.

 

A little update.

To be honest, I don’t know how it would turn out. The stretching makes it hard to align the suede and the “belt” especially when there is a curve. Just need to make sure it doesn’t stretch too much.

In fact according to me, there are 2 schools, one that fixes the lining by gluing when the "panels" are flat, under construction, and one that fixes the lining on the top with the peripheral seam of the belt and leaves all the rest of the lining floating in the bag, but it's the one who makes who sees and who decides...

Very polished looking!  Normally I'm not the biggest fan of the two-tone items except when it really works, and in this case it really works!
