cindyann 2/28/03Thanks for this review Tonya. I've seen this pattern and wondered how it would sew up. It does look more substantial then a tube top in the pattern photo.

Arlene 2/28/03Nice job Tonya, I would like to try sewing lingerie soon.

Dale Chun 2/28/03WooHoo Tonya! You did a great job on this outfit.

AnneM 2/28/03Good job, very nice color choices! I am told that the metal boning is the most comfortable (I think Phyllis is the one with experience on this). I think it does look like the pattern picture, although it sounds like the pattern picture does not look much like the pattern!

PhyllisC 3/5/03Boning - yes indeed - coiled flat steel boning is the way to go. It bends side-to-side in addition to front and back. My sister-in-law said it was very comfotable in the gown I made for her. Lacis in San Francisco sells it in numerous pre-measured lengths. A good casing material for lingerie would be seam binding. They also sell caps so you can cut it yourself (with a heavy duty bolt cutter)....it doesn't shift or migrate if it's inserted properly.

music1 12/27/05Thanks for the details. I'm going to start experimenting with making "sleevless leotards" with shaping built in. A stretch 'fits like a glove' dance dress will fit over the foundation 'leotard' and attach at the armholes, neckline and zipper, over the 'leotard'. I'm interested in learning how to build the bustier part of the leotard. Thats where I appreciate your details.
