Day 3
If you are using white jersey for the crotch gusset lining, please see the hipster tutorial (http://www.sewingmamas.com/b/showthread.php?t=153 290). If using self-fabric, you will want the wrong side of the fabric to be inside your undies. This will give you more of a rtw look.
Step 9: Line up wrong side of lining to wrong side of back.
Step 10: Pin.

Step 11: Line up right side of outer lining to right side of back. You are making a fabric sandwich with the back of the panties in the middle of the two crotch pieces.

Step 12: Sew back crotch seam using a serger or a zig-zag stitch on your sewing machine. Make sure to remove the pins rather than try to sew over them!

Things are about to get tricky! Have no fear! We will get there!!! Just pay careful attention.
Step 15: You should be able to see how the fabric will look when the panties are finished. Fold the outer crotch piece so that you see a smooth seam (no raw edges).

Step 16: Holding your folded fabric sandwich, turn fabric so that the raw edges (cut edge of fabric) are exposed. Pin. Don't worry that your fabric is twisted. If you followed steps 15 and 16, your fabric will be going the correct way.
