Lining:
Linings are generally a functional part of a garment. They are used variously to maintain
the shape of a garment, to improve the hang and comfort by allowing it to slide over
other
garment.
Linings are joined to main garment by sewing and for this normal sewing machines are
enough. The method of attaching lining to outer garments depends on the garment type
and
on
whether
it
is
fully
or
partially
bagged
out.

Interlining:
Interlinings are used to support, reinforced control the shape of some areas of garments
such as collars, cuffs, waist bands, facings and the front of coats. They are attached by
fusing.
Bias tape or bias binding is a narrow strip of fabric, cut on the bias (UK cross-grain). The
strip's fibers, being at 45 degrees to the length of the strip, makes it stretchier as well as more
fluid and more drapeable compared to a strip that is cut on the grain. Many strips can be pieced
together into a long "tape." The tape's width varies from about 1/2" to about 3" depending on
applications. Bias tape is used in making piping, binding seams, finishing raw edges, etc. It is
often used on the edges of quilts, placemats, and bibs, around armhole and neckline edges
instead of a facing, and as a simple strap or tie for casual bags or clothing.
Commercially available bias tape is available as a simple bias tape, single-fold bias tape, and
double-fold bias tape.

Twill tape is a flat twill-woven ribbon of cotton, linen, polyester, or wool.

Twill tape is available in various widths, generally up to 1 inch (2.5 cm), and a wide range of
colors.
Twill tape is used in sewing and tailoring to reinforce seams, make casings, bind edges, and
make sturdy ties for closing garments (for example, on hospital gowns).
Twill tape is also used in theatre to tie curtains, cable and scenery to various objects, or to tie
cable coils so that they do not unroll.
A form of twill tape is sometimes used to wrap the handlebars of road bicycles.

Conclusion:
The experiment gives us an idea about different types of trimmings. I would like to give
special thanks to our teacher. I am also grateful to our instructors. I think this experiment
will be very helpful in my future
