#braugust2020 #braugust Day 30, mix and match @tailormadeshop @ellieandmac_patterns My mix and match is a little different. (My entire wardrobe is built on the mix and match concept.) I fell in love with some embroidered fabric a few years ago, so I bought it. (I finally got around to useing it this summer.) Last year I found some panne and decided I NEEDED it, so I bought it and made a lounge set...well, they're almost the same color. How cool is that? I can mix and match two different sets together. One embroidered bra uses @emeralderinsews 's Jordy pattern, the panne boyshorts use her Tuesday shorts pattern. The other embroidered bra uses @orangelingerie 's landsdowne pattern. The panne tank, with a build in bra, is my own design. Hopefully I'll have the other pieces done by next year. #sewing #lingeriesewing #cozyloungewear #watchingwardrobe #sewyourownwardrobe #tuesdayboyshorts #jordybralette #makeyourownwardrobe #orangelingerie #lansdownebra #makingstuff #sew #hobbies #inspiration #fabric #diy #bramaking #mystyle #staysafe #fashionisfun #makingclothes #brasewing #prettydressday #handmadewardrobe #handmade #favoritefabric https://www.instagram.com/p/CEigMrDgmJ1/?igshid=tmvpalhlhh5v

#braugust2020 #braugust Day 29, matching set @tailormadeshop @thelingerieformula 2020 has been the year for loungewear, at least in my house. I got a remnant of this cute black abd white unicorn & rainbow fabric, I added some lace and some lining, and I have the cutest, coziest matching set. And since I already have a very monochrome wardrobe, it's pretty perfect.

#braugust2020 #braugust Day 28, fantasy project @tailormadeshop @lilypadesigns *this is still a work in progress* One of my coworkers asked me if I would make her a strapless longline bra like my halloween one to go with a cranberry sateen suit we designed together. (This was supposed to be for a black tie fundraiser next January, but that event might not happen anymore.) So....with a few compromises, and 3 different tests, it's almost done. She wears a 40i, the biggest compromise was removable multiway straps because this isn't a corset, it's a bra. The underwires are currently still in the last test garment, since things are on hold, I'm not rushed to finish it. The suit has high-waisted, ankle length pants, with a cropped, fitted jacket. If you know my in real life, yes I have a dress out of the same fabric. #sewing #lingeriesewing #prettylingerie #sewyourownwardrobe #makeyourownwardrobe #makingstuff #sew #hobbies #inspiration #fabric #diy #bramaking #mystyle #staysafe #fashionisfun #makingclothes #brasewing #prettydressday #handmadewardrobe #handmade https://www.instagram.com/p/CEftIUhA0Z1/?igshid=1ttrwt9no7ohy

#braugust2020 #braugust Day 27, sporty/strappy @tailormadeshop @house.morrighan Um, both! One of my frie ds had asked about sports bras the other day, so I decided to create one that matched the animal blackon place capris I made last week. I've always liked the cute details on the fast fashion variations, but they function terribley. So....I made sure to make the straps were sturdy enough to be supportive and NOT bouncy, even for larger cup sizes. It's 3/4" braided elastic serged on to the straps, then folded and stitched again. The band had elastic in the fabric casing. I messed up the math a tiny bit, which is why it's a tad bit messy at the back. The whole thing uses the same fabric, the matte effect is achived by using the wrong side. As an added bonus, I tested this today. Not only did I run wearing it and the matching capris, I jumped in the pool (next door) to cool off. (My neighbors to the north are AMAZING!) #sewing #lingeriesewing #sportsbras #sewyourownwardrobe #makeyourownwardrobe #fitnessfashion #makingstuff #sew #hobbies #inspiration #fabric #diy #handmadeswimsuit #bramaking #mystyle #staysafe #fashionisfun #makingclothes #sewingsupplies #swimsuit #handmadewardrobe #handmade https://www.instagram.com/p/CEal5NkA3-t/?igshid=umxtz7ebd081

#braugust2020 #braugust Day 26, comfy @tailormadeshop @primrisedawndesigns This is a day late because it was a gift, and she didn't get it until today. Cute and cozy kittie! The print is by @katrina_ward_creative via @spoonflower. (#notanad) I added an extra strappy detail to jazz things up. The panties are cheeky hipsters. #sewing #lingeriesewing #sewyourownwardrobe #makeyourownwardrobe #makingstuff #sew #hobbies #inspiration #fabric #diy #handmadeswimsuit #bramaking #mystyle #staysafe #fashionisfun #makingclothes #sewingsupplies #swimsuit #handmadewardrobe #handmade https://www.instagram.com/p/CEakNv5gfNW/?igshid=1l16mgdd64udp

#braugust2020 #braugust Day 25, classic @tailormadeshop @themadcutters Classis, haha that's kinda funny. I have friend who used to get annoyed because I was always "dressed up". I wasn't dressed up, I just wear a lot of classic clothes that you can wear for any occasion. Lingerie works that way too. You can pick a very traditional or classic patterns, and make it into something else just but changing the color or fabric. So, how about classic, with a twist. #sewing #lingeriesewing #sewyourownwardrobe #makeyourownwardrobe #makingstuff #sew #hobbies #inspiration #fabric #diy #handmadeswimsuit #bramaking #mystyle #staysafe #fashionisfun #makingclothes #sewingsupplies #swimsuit #handmadewardrobe #handmade https://www.instagram.com/p/CEVhGdHAMvH/?igshid=qkic6kn9b87w

#braugust2020 #braugust Day 24, beach or pool @tailormadeshop @porcelynnesupplies I made this suit last summer, and even though I really like it, I rarely wear it. It's comfy and supportive, but Ive made so many swimsuits over the last few years that I tend to grab something else. I used Lisette pattern B6360 from Butterick, (mine has the boxout display number). #sewing #lingeriesewing #sewyourownwardrobe #makeyourownwardrobe #makingstuff #sew #hobbies #inspiration #fabric #diy #handmadeswimsuit #bramaking #mystyle #staysafe #fashionisfun #makingclothes #sewingsupplies #swimsuit #handmadewardrobe #handmade #lisettepatterns #butterickpatterns #b6360 https://www.instagram.com/p/CEShvvkgXCH/?igshid=4rvoc9l70tsj
