Overexposure

I'm loathe to show you these photos of my Lady Grey Sew Along lining because they aren't accurate. The colour is actually not green at all (or teal as it seems here) but a rich jewel blue (to go with the navy boucle fashion fabric, every photo of which was wretched and flat or overexposed).

Nonetheless, observe the wrong side in the photo directly above. Do you see how it's flannel? This will add a layer of warmth without necessitating lambswool interlining (which I couldn't find) or yucky synthetics (which I couldn't bring myself to buy). I hope it's going to be effective. If nothing else it will repel the wind better than a regular, thin lining. And the satin is rather rich.
