Best fabric for Coat Lining?
| # | Post |

| 1 | Can anyone suggest a good lining fabric that looks good (for when you see it) for a wool cot please? I know satin is used but it is it durable? Anything I have used satin for seem to not last long. Hoping someone has a good suggestion please? jan2242 - 2021-07-13 10:01:00 |
| 2 | I buy linings from Hawes & Freer https://www.hawesandfreer.co.nz/ mica3 - 2021-07-13 10:49:00 |
| 3 | I think satin is the best but not all satins are made equal. I would buy the best quality you can ie heavier from a specialised fabric shop. shanreagh - 2021-07-13 14:00:00 |

| 5 | What's happened to taffeta? Although satin would be ideal. yapper - 2021-07-13 18:13:00 |
| 6 | For a winter coat I used a remnant I found of heavy weight silky satin. It added a level of warmth that ordinary satin lining didn't. For a child's coat I used plaid flannelette or a favourite theme, such as [back in the day - star trek], or these days Paw patrol etc, sometimes a quilting fabric once washed will do the trick. For summer or lightweight coats/jackets I use satin or taffeta/nylon lining. Some good deals on TM. voyager4 - 2021-07-14 08:59:00 |
| 7 | Lining in a wool coat makes it a lot easier to put on and take off, why dont you line the inside fronts with something amazing (satin) and line the rest with a plain colour matching lining?. I dont think any lining would wear out quickly in a coat, ( like a mans work suit jacket) and its easy to replace anyway. articferrit - 2021-07-14 14:04:00 |
