    Thank you so much! I almost lost my mind! Been drafting my patterns over and over again and it’s always the same issue. I even whispered to myself “why aren’t we just squared shaped!” 😂in a moment of anger ofcourse. Thank you once again

    This was a lovely and very interesting interview. I intended to listen for just a minute or two because I recognized Duane from Instagram, but I wound up staying and listening to all of it. Thank you both for sharing your intriguing questions and answers.

    2:25 I was told pattern cups are not the same as bra cups. Is this table for bra cups or pattern cups? I have a 4.5" difference between over bust and bust. 3:49 how do we figure how much to add here?

    This is one of the most helpful videos on straightening fabric. I used your technique on a 60" wide fabric. Clipping the salvage and then pulling a thread to find your straight line to cut worked perfectly. Many thanks.

    Came here looking for lingerie (bra's mostly) for my "tiny" body, and was not disappointed for once! TY!! (Usually it's for plus sizes.) Try finding a nursing bra (years ago) for a 30 chest. Also, we call underwear "skivvies" in our house.

  • @floatinglotuswomenswellness

    Maddie was one of the first people I found through the first Bra Sewing Bee during the pandemic. While my sizing is nothing like her base range for smaller folk (or was at that time) I learned so many sewing details for lingerie and my technique expanded amazingly. I'm sure her book will have the same effect on anyone who purchases it. Now, I don't have a single retail bra - everything I wear is me-made and actually fits pretty darn well! (I'm small-boned and have way more tissue to contain than I want.)

    What do you mean by a waxed thread? Is it a thread you have treated with beeswax or something you buy. I used dental floss testing it out fwiw 😂

  • @laurieschatzberg
    @laurieschatzberg Před měsícem

    Good video tutorial -- even after all these years. Part way thru when y ou mention measuring you waist ... and then "going back a couple of inches" I can't actually see if you're making the elastic LARGER (to allow for side/back seams in a garment) or a couple of inches SMALLER so there's added amount of snug. Hope you or someone can answer.
