I LOVE THIS BRA!!!! Here's why:
1) Excellent Youtube tutorial that expands on the written directions.
2) Easy to make and fit.
3) No apex line to deal with, which is perfect for someone who might "droop" a bit, due to menopause or having nursed babes.
4) Super comfortable!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've made 2 and will keep on making this bra because it works so well for me!
I'm not very big, so I don't need a lot of support. For fuller busted women, I've seen on-line that adding channeling for wires around the seam line for where the cup and cradle attach gives more support. You could also play around with the degree of stretch of your fabric, BUT if you use less stretch, you will need a bigger cup size. Ask me how I know this, LOL!
thanks so much Jalie for this wonderful pattern!
Love all the sizes and ideas of using interchangeable pattern pieces.
J'aime bcp ce patron pour la camisole d'allaitement.
Je ne mets pas d'élastique sur le sein, je laisse la bretelle libre tout simplement. Il y a malheureusement des erreurs dans les grandeurs d'élastique exemple la grandeur DD et EE.
fantastic pattern. so comfy to wear, and you can use off cuts from other projects as you dont need too much material. very quick and easy to sew, love it!!!
I am tired of paying $$$ for bras. I wanted something simple to wear and in some creative fabrics. I've made 3 so far and the fit is excellent, the instructions are precise and they really take no time at all to complete. I will be building my bra wardrobe through the winter in some jazzy prints, plus solids. Seriously, it takes no time at all to put this together. Highly recommended!
