Linen bralette pattern, Sizes 18-22, Bralette sewing pattern

This is an easy-to-sew bralette pattern for a stable fabric. The cup size is determined in accordance with the main measurement GD (see the picture); the length of the band is determined according to your circumference under the bust, minus the length of the hook and eye closure. Also, the width of the band is equal to the width of the closure.

This bralette is sewn without the use of band elastic and picot elastic; only the strap elastic is used here.

All my bras sewn on conventional sewing machine with the function of a zig-zag.

Please read carefully before purchasing to determine the size of the sewing pattern correctly.

I do not use a conventional measurement system. The main measure that I use is the horizontal arc (HD), in centimeters (see the picture). Simply put, you need to take this measurement between the ends of the underwire through the protruding point of the chest, horizontally. The dimensions of my sewing patterns are according to this measurement (if your measurement of HD is 23 cm, then you need size 23). This enables an individual approach to the creation of patterns. In the usual way, the pattern is created according to the difference between two dimensions (bust and under bust girth), but within this framework a wide variety of shapes and sizes is possible.

I use a system of individual measurements to create a personalized pattern because each person’s figure is unique.

You can buy ready-made patterns according to the size described above (please note that measurements are in centimeters).

Materials and supplies:

*Paper pattern;

*Sewing machine;

*Scissors;

*Pins;
*Sewing thread;

*Natural fabric (linen, cotton);

*Strap elastic about 1 m (the strap width should match the size of your rings and sliders for secure straps that stay in place). You can adjust the pattern according to the width of your strap elastic. To do this, fold the parts of the outside cup and the inside cup together, aligning at the top. Mark the desired width of the elastic, reduce or increase the pattern in this place, drawing smooth lines to the lower points of the part;

*Rings and sliders;

*Hook and eye closure.

It is very convenient to use a special tailor’s ham.  This round tailor’s ham is an indispensable item when sewing a bra. It makes it possible to give the correct shape to round seams when ironing. For its sewing, a pattern of a large bra was used; its shape fits all of my sewing patterns.
