Markie1 said... Thank you for the inspiration to do something I have never even wanted to do! Never occurred to me. Now THAT'S a good review! 1/26/09 2:54 PM
Karen6790 said... Wow, you actually make this sound do-able. One of these days I'll work up the nerve to try. Yours turned out great, can't wait to hear about the next ones. 1/26/09 3:00 PM

Catbird said... You might have just started a bra making revolution! I'm also inspired to give it a try. There are few things more harrowing than bra shopping, so it would be great to get a few patterns that fit and be free of RTW forever! Thanks for a fun review. 1/26/09 4:10 PM
fuzzygalore said... Oh, thank you! What a good idea! I too have a fair amount of good fabric, and a really burning failure to hold me back (the worse case of underwire-poking I couldn't even have imagined before). So far all I've done is contemplate patterns and measure myself into better RTW, which isn't that bad a result :-). But your toile looks fine, although if I were you I might change that elastic and wear it for hiking or something.. 1/26/09 5:10 PM
