Patterns That Fit You - Lingerie Patterns

SEWING LINGERIE FOR A PERFECT FIT

Making your own slips, underpants, nightgowns, bras, etc. is really very easy. The very obvious advantage of making your own panties, slips and gowns is the fact that they will be made according to YOUR OWN MEASUREMENTS! The classes throughout this lingerie section give instructions on how to take your measurements, and how to use those measurements to make various lingerie items. Whether you wear plus size panties, plus size slips, plus size nightgowns, or very small petite size panties, petite slips and petite nightgowns, these classes are for you! Finally you can have non-binding panties that won't pinch or cause chafing; and slips that you won't have to "roll over" the waist to get it the right length.

Many people are intimidated by the very idea of sewing with "slippery" tricot that wants to slide everywhere. RELAX!!! You can do this - it really isn't that hard! Get the feel of the fabric - if it wants to slide, simply get something heavy to anchor the edges so that it won't be difficult to work with.

Some lingerie items such as panties and even some slips can be made out of a lightweight cotton knit, which would be much easier for you to start with. Once you've made your first pair of comfortable fitting panties or slip that fits YOUR measurements, you'll be making slips and panties in every color, as well as making them for friends and family for gifts!

Choose from the following classes to get started. I promise you'll LOVE the way the garments fit, you'll want to try the other classes as well.
