At the beginning of April, after I had completed my fitting of the Make Bra DL02, I decided I really wanted to try to get several neutral colored bras done to wear under light colored clothing this year. I have made many beige bras in the past, but they have seen a lot of use … More Adventures in Bra Sewing: A Gold Josey Bra
At this point time is blurring together and I honestly can’t remember what I completed in March vs. April vs. May. I have been making some progress this month I think? I know I’m finally getting some posts up about projects I finished in April, And I’ve decided that my next round of projects is … More Monthly Sewing Review – 2026 May Wrap Up
The Make Bra patterns have been on my radar for a while, but I haven’t been prioritizing them because I haven’t seen that many reviews of these patterns, and especially not for people in larger cup sizes. Last year the Make Bra DL03 was one of the pattern options for the Bee on a Wire … More Adventures in Bra Sewing: Make Bra DL02 Pattern Review
This pattern was on my long-term to-do list, but it got bumped up when I was taking the Bra Fit Clinic class and needed to wait for some supplies to arrive in the mail to work on my main project. So I went down a road of side quests trying some wire-free bra patterns I’ve … More Adventures in Bra Sewing: Porcelynne Aphrodite Bralette Pattern Review
April has been crazy – it’s felt simultaneously like the longest and shortest month so far this year. It’s been a wild contrast of busy travels and work, and also being tired or sick and doing absolutely nothing at home. Somehow in spite of all of this I somehow managed to finish a lot of … More Monthly Sewing Review – 2026 April Wrap Up
I feel like the months this year have been flying past. Although I haven’t been super active on the blog, I did manage to get some sewing in this month! I don’t have a ton of finished projects yet, but I am really happy with where I managed to get in the fitting process and … More Monthly Sewing Review – 2026 February Wrap Up
I truly can’t believe February is over. I feel like this month has flown by, and like I’ve been busy for all of it. I clearly haven’t been posting much to the blog, because I’ve been focused on a lot of non-sewing related things this month. I sort of suspected it would be this way … More Monthly Sewing Review – 2026 February Wrap Up
It’s been a month and 2026 is already off to a crazy start. There’s been a lot going on in the real world, and it’s certainly a weird time to try and balance the emotions around that and caring about personal things that seem really trivial, like sewing progress. But I do appreciate having these … More Monthly Sewing Review – 2026 January Wrap Up
My last post went into a deep dive on this pattern, so this is going to be more of a quick “look what I made” situation. When I was ordering some of Emerald Erin’s specialty wires, I couldn’t help myself and bought a few of the fancier Black Beauty kits as well, including the Cassiopeia … More Adventures in Bra Sewing: Another Black Beauty Bra
I will be honest that I’m sort of shocked that I’m writing this review. The Emerald Erin Black Beauty Bra is probably one of the better known bra patterns on the market, but it tends to cater towards the smaller size ranges. I didn’t think I would ever be able to fit, so I’d been … More Adventures in Bra Sewing: Emerald Erin Black Beauty Bra Pattern Review
