I’m new to sewing (started in September), this is the easiest, quickest, most beginner friendly underwear pattern I’ve found. According to my son, these are “THE BEST, MOST COMFIEST underwear!”

I’d never made a bra before, but it just looked so cute and comfy. The process was SO much easier than I expected it to be. I’ve already ordered more hardware to make myself some more. This is the comfiest bra I’ve ever owned, and so supportive for one without underwire. I would suggest using power mesh between the outer fabric and the lining, I think I really contributed to it being supportive.

You may be wondering, do I really need to spend money on another undie pattern? Yes, yes you do. It will be well worth the money for all you’re going to save when you don’t have to search for the perfect pair of RTW anymore. These are literally the best most comfiest undies ever. They don’t take much too much fabric and the fit is like 10 stars. Fits your curves perfectly so you feel all tucked in and worry free – never any panty lines or wedgies.
Just buy the pattern already! You won’t regret it

These adorable socks sew up quickly, and they are the perfect scrap buster! I love the different height options. I like the ankle socks for my toddler to wear with tennis shoes and the knee highs look so cute with boots!

I love this pattern! Great fit and a quick sew. I have made three tops for myself and three baby girl tunic tops. I plan to sew my first Nora dress this weekend! So excited, I see many more of these in my future.
