Patterns

Iris Bralette in Front A/Back E
​Sunflower Panty in Style E

Fabrics

Iris Bralette uses 95/5 cotton/spandex jersey, around 200 gms/m2, from unknown origin.  It has been in my stash for awhile and I can't remember where I bought it.  The lining is a stretch mesh from Spandex World.  The light aqua power net is also from Spandex World.

​Sunflower Panty uses a lightweight rayon/spandex jersey print from Girl Charlee.  These are scraps leftover from my Mirri Top.

Trims

Iris Bralette: Uses elastics I had leftover from various projects, hand dyed by me to a lovely bright turquoise.  I was lucky that the 624 Turquoise jacquard dye from Dharma Trading just happened to match my fabric perfectly.

​Sunflower Panty: All edges are finished with a very soft 1/2" stretch lace I received in a stretch lace value pack from Fabric Depot Co.  

Style Notes

Iris Bralette: ​While cotton/spandex isn't the most supportive fabric, I prefer breathable fabrics in the bras I wear for exercising.  This is one of the prototypes for my pattern, and as you can see I sewed the straps with the O-ring at the front.  I always struggle with attaching the ring at the front because of so many bulky layers.  After making this sample, I decided I preferred to have the ring at the back. A folded over back strap attachment felt much more secure to me.

​Sunflower Panty: I'm not really a fan of thongs, and usually only wear them when necessary with fitted pants and skirts.  So when I made this panty, I wanted to be sure all the edges would be very soft and comfortable.  I think I prefer lace over elastics for this particular style.
