Well, I do want to line the dress, however, professor pincushion has a point, it will be late June and will be hot.  Any ideas for a lining that would be breathable, cool, and provide structure?  (Not that I want my cake and eat it too, lol) Does anyone have ideas or suggestions, I know that my “wants” are big.  I am a new sewer of garments, anyone with tips or tricks, I will take all that I can get. Thank you and look forward to hearing your ideas.
