Linscee 7/2/06Thanks for the great review. You make it sound easy!

Skye 7/2/06excellent review and very nice "housing" for your girls :)

sewbehind 7/2/06Wow, your bras look very professional. I'm a little daunted about fabric choice and such. Good job.
* * *
Sherril Miller 7/2/06That's a nice look bra. I've had this pattern for about three years and have never tried it. I'm close to your size at a 40C but I wear underwire styles. Does this have enough support to do away with wires? I think I should give it a try.

ReneeSews 7/2/06Sherrill - My RTW bras don't have underwires, can't stand them. All I can say is to yes definitely give it a try and see how it works for you.

fuzzygalore 7/3/06Oh, higher -sides-... what an interesting idea!! Now I personally like underwires, which is why I prefer bras without bottom band (the band always seems to end up elsewhere than intended). But this does look like it'd work well without. Mmm... Thanks for encouraging us all by your exploration of patterns and incredibly professional-looking results :-)!

mamakooz 7/3/06Thank you for reviewing this! Your bra looks great!

wvsher 7/3/06Great job on the bra. I may have to try this.

JeanetteE 7/4/06I just finished reading your 3 bra reviews & I want to thank you very much. I bought this pattern ( and 2 other KS bra patterns) several years ago & have been too scared to try them. I'm now going to attempt this one first ( after I find the darn thing!). :)

katieb 7/17/06This is great. Thank you so much for the review. I hate underwired bras, and have trouble finding non-wired bras. I never thought of making my own. I will have a go now. Thanks for all the helpful tips.

licarrit1 7/17/06I just recently got this one and I am cutting one of these badboys out tonight! Great review and ideas for the straps/back so you can just pull it on over your head like a sports bra? And it really is supportive with out the underwires?
* * *
ReneeSews 7/17/06licarrit1-I haven't worn underwires in forever so I can't say if these support as well. They support as well as my $26 Bali Bras that don't have underwires.

Rustybobn 7/18/06Love that purple bra, Renee!
* * *
Stefanie 7/18/06So glad you decided to do a few more lingerie pieces. I do enjoy seeing what you've made.
* * *
purefairydust 3/17/09I really enjoyed reading this review. I am glad to see that you made it in fabric other then the suggested fabric. I like the idea of not using sliders and the idea of sewing the back seam and think the 4 way stretch like you used would make an excellent sport bra.

Fallwgrace 3/19/09Makes me want to try my hand at making a bra that I want to wear. Thanks. K.
