The fabric is called Crane Velvet and it came in four colors but appears to be discontinued now unfortunately.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"text-transform:capitalize\">Step Six: &nbsp;Joining the lining with the outside<\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" data-src=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_5621-500x333.jpg\" alt=\"bucket bag tutorial\" class=\"wp-image-37966 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_5621-500x333.jpg 500w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_5621-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_5621-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_5621-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_5621-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/IMG_5621-150x100.jpg 150w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 500px;
