Even as I finished stitching my first me-made effort at bra making, I was sewing bra number two in my head. I was convinced I’d be able to create an even better bra second time around. Needless to say, things didn’t turn out quite as I expected.
This summer I finally worked up the resolve to make not one but two bras, plus co-ordinating knickers. To my astonishment the experience worked out so well I am now working on bra number three.
I have never been able to get stylish jeans that fit me. Ever. Two years ago, after a particularly dispiriting changing room session, I decided there had to be a better way and found Heather Lou of Closet Case Patterns and her Ginger Jeans (obviously nothing to do with Made At Ginjer jeans!). I decided to make my own jeans.
