When u first mentioned this would feature in an upcoming video I eagerly awaited the notification. And how clear you demonstrate your method for this alteration.
Your bra looks amazing. Thank you for sharing, I love longer line bras but haven’t made any, my bought ones have a small piece of flexible boning roughly where your seam joins. It looks fairly easy to sew in an extra channel and I have boning left over from my ‘corset adventure!’.
This is great! I *probably* should have not followed the angle of my band exactly, but instead should have started going more straight down at some point to account for the fact that, while I lose 5 inches from high bust to underbust, I basically then maintain inches from underbust until just before my waist. So my longline is a little tight at the bottom. BUT it's beautiful and we'll just call it shapewear 😂
Thank you for sharing this info as I wanted to know the correct way to make this alteration. I hope one day you will write a book on bra alterations. Also hoping you will do a video on how to create baby doll lingerie with a bra. Thanks!
I really appreciate that you put all the supplies in the description box! I found the blue and beige lace I was looking for :) Thank you Liz Do you have some tips for a larger strap?
Thank you Liz thisvis awes9me. I am wondering if you would m8nd giving me your opinion. My SIL is suffering from breast cancer and is having trouble with her (RTW) wires. Do you think this in a wireless form (with channeling) would feel as enough support for someone who is used to wearing wires. 🤔 . Thank you so much.
Great, your explanation make it SIMPLE, thank you! you are a natural teacher, I receive an e-mail about the Great Bra Sewing Bee and saw your name in the instructors list I am so exited. Just one question it is a beautiful lace where you purchase it from?
Which direction do you have the DOGS going in when cutting out the sheer cup lining? Since it's only one piece, and bra patterns have the bridge with the DOGS going vertical, and the sides of the bridge the DOGS are horizontal...
The bridge has the DOGS going vertically as this piece needs more strength due to the stresses it needs to resist; all the rest can have the DOGS going horizontally to allow for the motion of breathing 😊
Hi there thankyou for your tutorial. I just have one question. Surely a person's bodyshape does not get less as you go towards the waist? Will this technique be suitable for larger sizes where the waist measurement would be not much smaller than the underbust measurement?
You're right, it wouldn't on all folk - for greater body fit, you need to know the circumference of your ribcage/torso at the point level with where the bra now finishes. Half of that measurement is the width you want at the bottom edge of the bra front. Similarly, the back panels and hook-and-eye closure widths should also add up to half that measurement. I hope that helps!
Can you please show how to take measurements from bra to make bra pattern.i don't know how to take measurements and make a pattern..plz give a video so that it would be helpful..I am your new subscriber Love you from India
I don't draft my bra patterns I purchase them, please check out my patterns video for more information on what patterns are available ruclips.net/video/0UnCCRwE6d8/видео.html
She no longer sales the tape, and not I'm having issues finding it. Do you have any suggestions? I will be emailing all of the stores, but other than that, is it possible?
More great, easy-to-follow sewing instructions! You’re such a skilled teacher and I’m learning so much. Thank you!
Oh this I so very interesting! This looks like it’s a beautiful design feature.

I'm going to try this with the real and purple embroidered tulle black beauty bra kit that Erin just released yesterday. I'm pretty exited!

How large are you looking for? Most shops carry up to a 3/4”
Thanks a lot for this
