Finally you are going to use your extra lining fabric to a 3″ strip that is long enough to go around your neck and rest at your waist going through the muff. Don’t forget to leave room for a seam allowance. Tri-fold the fabric and sew. Then slip the strip through your muff and sew the edges together. You can also use ribbon or lace instead of fabric. If you so desire, decorate your muff by hand-stitching on pearls, lace, feathers, etc.
