For Blazers and Jackets:
Aim for medium to heavyweight interlining: You want your blazer or jacket to have a structured silhouette that holds its shape. Hair canvas or a medium weight polyester interlining are great options.
Consider fusible interlining: This type heat-bonds to your fabric, making application of your woven fusible interlining a breeze.
Pay attention to drape: If you prefer a softer jacket, opt for a slightly lighter weight interlining or a more pliable material like cotton.
For Collars and Cuffs:
Medium weight interlining is your friend: This provides enough structure for a crisp collar or defined cuff without feeling bulky.
Fusible interlining makes construction easier: Especially for those curved areas when working with your woven interlining fabric.
For a softer collar, explore lightweight fusible interlining options.
For Waistbands:
Medium weight interlining is a good starting point: This ensures your waistband keeps its shape and provides a comfortable level of support.
Consider sew-in interlining: This might be preferable for thicker waistbands, offering more flexibility during construction.
