Heyhey,

so my jumpsuit is finally finished and here are the last steps. If you are just joining now you can find the other parts here: pattern, cutting, sewing1, sewing2 and sewing3

 

 Now I overlocked the hems and marked my hem allowance

then ironed it inside and sewed all around

now I made the lining smaller by the same amount as the outside part last week

then I placed front and back lining in the jumpsuit the way they later should be

so I am sure which side seam I should sew

then I pinned my side seam, but left the double of the seam allowance open at the top

next I pinned the lining right side on right side on the top of the back part and sewed

then I folded the top stripes down and pinned the lining to the top seam of the waist part and sewed close to the original seam

then I folded the lining parts down and ironed them

now I folded the seam allowance of the back part inside

and reached for those seam allowances on the inside

turned them outside and pinned the seam allowances of the lining and waist-part together

but left twice the seam allowance open at the down-end

and sewed

looked clean when turned back

now I folded the seam allowance inside at the zipper

then turned it wrong side out again and pinned seam allowances together

and sewed

looks like this

and of course the same with the zipper at the front part, always leaving some cm open at the down end

 

now I folded the seam allowance on the down inside and pinned it from the right side in place, through the original seam

then sewed through the original seam and by that sewed the lining closed

I also sewed over the few cm I could not reach before

 my finished jumpsuit I made myself a fitting hat. Like it? you can buy your own in my etsy store or can vote here, for me to turn my patterns into pdf’s so you can download it and sew your own.
