It's time to sew along with Janna! This kit has everything that you'll need to complete the project in whichever of the variations that you prefer.
The Lusamine pattern has been at the top of everyone's wish list since it was released a short while ago, and now it has all the sizes! This makes it a perfect candidate for a sew along! Let Janna walk you through a variety of lace techniques as she riffs lace on this super cute pattern. This is a great advanced beginner project, and is a darling bra for all skill levels. Plus, this is our Bee kit, which means that you get the Bee charm for the year with this kit. With the simplicity of the lace, we are letting this beautiful charm make a statement to bring personality into your garment.
We've sourced all sorts of wonderful fabrics, colors and laces for all of our bras, and this one is the most simple, yet it goes beautifully with just about everything! The focus area for this project is on lace techniques. Practice all the wonderful things you learn in this year's classes with this project. You can choose either an opaque or a sheer cup for your bra. The Sheer cup is easier to sew, so make this choice if you're a beginner. You'll love Janna's clear instruction and oh-so-sweet nature.
We are offering our bra kits in 2 sizes, Larger and Smaller. The primary difference is in the size of the findings and the weight of the power net. The secondary difference is in the amount of cup fabric. If you want the larger amount of cup fabric, just upgrade the cup. This gives you more fabric but the correct size findings. We're also giving you the option to swap the findings size in your kit, or chose "Send All the Options" if you're not sure what you'll need. You can also upgrade to include matching thread, extra lace and an additional Bra Finishing Kit. Many women can get 2 bras with our kits.
