I started sewing in the summer of 2015 after binging on a season the The Great British Sewing Bee. I had the basic skills my mother had taught me, a 70s era hand-me-down sewing machine, and a love of big swishy skirts . I don't know how I could have learned if it wasn't for all the wonderful resources available on the internet. Whenever I would get stuck on a sewing task I spend hours on-line researching and learning the techniques. Two years later I fell down the rabbit hole of Homemade Lingerie and made my first bra in May 2017 and I was hooked. I, like many women, have proportions that don't necessarily conform to fashion industry standards. Being able to make my own bras was an eye-opening experience and helped me to better understand and love my own body for all its quirks. Now with a few 100 bras under my presser foot I want to pay it forward and create content and tutorials to help other would be bra makers out there.

How to Alternate Skeins Knitting in Round
Hi Liz -- I love love love all your videos. I was wondering if you'd ever consider showing us how to convert the Black Beauty bra into a bustier, or even into a bodysuit?
luv your Maya videos. They have helped me through several bewildering (to me) steps.
Thanks for all your help on the Maya patterns. Very helpful. I want to purchase a walking foot for better bra construction. Any chance that you know which walking foot(s) are compatible with Singer 2200 series? Please and thank you
Thankx very very helpful
this is a fantastic tutorial and has given faith in myself to complete my first homemade bra!!! :)
Thank you very much for the very informative video! I am just starting up with the first tester and three of these tips already made it look much better!
Sorry meant to say you explain very nicely and in detail.
I explain very nicely and in detail. I had a question I had bra surgery and can’t wear bra with seams. I want to make my on bra without seams and if possible cotton as I get hot very fast and my skin is sensitive. Could please recommend me what kind of pattern bra and what brand would it be good. My skin is very sensitive and can’t wear too much synthetic fabric. I would like breathable fabric like cotton and a little spandex. Any recommendations or if I can find any bra. Please help me out. I looked on line but purchased so many different bras but still have problem. Thanks
Gracias!!
TYSM for sharing your techniques and fabrics in your other video. New sub!
Thank you! This was very helpful 🙏🏼
I enjoy your haul videos as you choose different colors from what I am drawn to and I get ideas from them. Thanks!
Can you give me the name of these fabric which is use in this video
Thanks, I am going to try this!
I do two things differently. First when I am starting a project where the skeins have to be alternated, I start with a whole skein and a half a skein, and thereafter add a whole skein each time. That way you are not starting with two whole skeins and then run out of those two and have to add two new ones at the same time. That kinda defeats the alternating ... you need to only be adding in one at a time. Also, if I am knitting in the round, and I have to alternate skeins, I do helix knitting. That way you will not have any definitive line where the skeins change each row. No possible way to tell when the piece is finished where the changes are.
4:26 Thank you!!!!!!!! "I want to align the top of my cup with the top of my bridge." The cup is curved, so I was going mad figuring out align left/right/spilt-the-difference. Ugh.
Very informative
Just came across your channel as tackling my first B. Wear Margarita, this is much the same construction, especially strap configuration. Really useful, thank you for all your careful work in your bra videos - all of them. Super resource. My word your colour choices, stunning!
Hi, do you still sew bras, I'm going through your videos and they are fabulous!
I never would have noticed the sleeves if you hadn’t mentioned them. I bet you would enjoy fixing it if you want to, since it’s kinda complicated, but you don’t have to. Love how you adjusted the front for a cardigan🥰
Beautiful ❤ thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you. Very helpful.
The cardigan is so lovely and looks wonderful on you. I love the copper color. The worst thing I feel I can say is I think you need to modify the right sleeve. Sorry!
I found that using small circumference needles for sleeves have helped me navigate sleeve island. It does change the tension but it’s manageable.
How to buy a bra pattern
Love it! I want to knit one now! 🤩
Beautiful Liz! The colour is lovely on you.❤ PS: Love your hair this way!!
Thank you for doing this video! I love the look of this sweater but had seen some projects on ravelry and read some notes, and the original pattern didn't seem to be give the right fit the way the designer has, so I stayed away. It's good to know that changes have been made and it's now going to give more accurate results!
Very lovely sweater! Well done❤
It's a nice sweater. You do such good work.
Where can I get the Black Beauty Bra Pattern?
Thanks for sharing your knowledge. it's really wonderful to find something like this. you are very skillful and know how to communicate that to others. Very well made contents. Hope you have a wonderful days ahead ☺️
❤
Beautifully knitted Liz! I agree with what you say about the sleeves!
Looks so good.
I know that this was done 4 years ago but I am just looking for this information now. I am not sure I understand how you will get these panties on over your hips. If the waist is 10" narrower than the hip measurement and you are compensating for the stretch of the fabric at .8 that makes the waist 24" unstretched. 24" x 1.4 for 40% stretch = 33.6" at full stretch for the waist, over 6" smaller than your hips. Could you explain how they will fit?
It looks great to me. I'm not a knitter
That is a sophisticated knit! It looks great on you!
Green is certainly your colour 😊
Was this inspired by Kim Kardashian as Princess Jasmine?
Great job, and I love the color !
Wow Liz, this is a standout - it suits you beautifully!! Great to see you!🩷
Always a joy to watch your videos! The Classic Oak looks wonderful on you and that greeeeen! 😍😍😍
I love your videos. I love the way you use drops yarn so affordable
Thank yo7 so much for this video. Like the way you use drops yarn as I use it a lot because it is reasonably priced.
I’m so pleased to see this video back ❤
Beautiful ❤
This is SO helpful. Thank you.
Really informative video! Unfortunately, this didn't work for me as especially the back side ended up being far too small for me, specifically, the amount of fabric constructed didn't give enough coverage for the back part to go up to the waist as constructed.
Is there an adjustment you can do to make the underwire Not pinch your arms when you’re bigger? That’s the only reason I wear non-wired bras and why I want to sew my own because I hate my boobs touching in the middle and need some extra support than what my non-wired cotton bras give but I can’t wear synthetics
