Hi everyone! A few years ago, (Actually more like 2015-ish) I was working on a costume that required a scalloped style edge, but it needed to be lined. I was stumped by this until I watched an old episode of Fans and Porter’s Love of Quilting.

How to Satin Stitch Pinstripes
To make a long story short, I couldn’t find fabric with pinstripes in the colors I wanted. After experimenting, I figured out this way of making pinstripes using satin stitching. It’s easy to do, but it is very time consuming. (By the way, I also posted this tutorial on my Tumblr.) Here’s what you’ll need… Fabric* and sewing pattern Chalk or fabric marker Ruler Optional: Yard stick Sewing machine Thread in the desired pinstripe color** Knowledge of how to stain stitch*** * The fabric is whatever type of fabric you choose as long as it can be satin stitched and not fall apart. **The thread can be normal all purpose…
