It's been a long time since I sewed some lingerie. Too many other projects that took priority, but today I felt like making one.
This is the result, a partial band bra. I took pictures while constructing, and will make a tutorial soon. Some time ago I received an email asking for a way to make a front closing to a bra. I did reply that I had never made such a bra (though I'm one of those women closing my bra in front and then turning it to the back). I think that this is the type of bra that might be the solution to make a front closing. I wouldn't know how to do it on a full band bra.
But now (it's Sunday evening here) it's time to prepare for a working week.
Sigrid,I rtruly like the fabric and fine details...very "nicely" made. Look foward to your tutorial.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous. I missed your lingerie sewing.
ReplyDeletePretty - you've just reminded me that I need to actually get started on a similar project for myself. It is on my list for this fall.
ReplyDeleteIt's gorgeous Sigrid... So inspiring. I was thinking of making one this very afternoon!

I am very much looking forward to your tutorial. I have supplies to sew a bra but not the courage.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI've never done a front closure in a bra myself, but the technique is described in a (German) book: you just cut through the front middle, even on a bra with band, and put in hooks and eyes there. (considering seam allowances and the amount of gap between hooks and eyes.)
So far for theory, never tried myself.
What a beautiful bra!
