The first ½ day will be measuring the bust, fitting using sample bras and making adjustments to the pattern and tracing the pattern if time permits. Sewing machines will not be needed, just tape measure, pins, pen, notepad, ruler, scissors, both material and paper.
Second day, full day - continue tracing pattern, bonding fabric, cutting out, sewing the bra. For those who finish their bras, a final fitting.
Participants need to have an advanced level of sewing skills. They don’t need to have a knowledge of sewing stretch fabrics, although it can be helpful.
Participants will need to bring their own sewing machine in good working order with accessories, stretch needles size 90/14, scissors, seam ripper, pins, tape measure, note pad, pen, thread to match kit fabric colour, ruler, piece of white/ivory fabric like tea towel, pillowcase, sheeting for bonding, one metre of Vliesofix or equivalent.
