Jazzy Stretch Lace Bra Kit

Our Lace Bra Kits take the guesswork out of bra building by putting together everything you'll need to make a beautiful bra using your own pattern. If you need a pattern, we have a great selection on our Patterns Page, both paper and downloadable.

A smooth voice croons along to the lively piano, accentuated by horns, then digs deep and really belts the words out. Jazz can evoke many moods, and so can this playful lace. The silver and black threads play well with both Smoke and Lady Gray or take a more subtle approach with black base fabrics. Choose elastics that match or contrast and finish the look off with sparkling silver hardware! Check out our bows and charms if you want to "jazz" up your bra even more. We were lucky enough to have two samples made up for this beautiful lace! Dee Ann chose Lady Gray, and made a sexy, strappy set with two thongs. Nikki made a Sahaara in Midnight. Aren't they all gorgeous?!

This bra kit features your choice of Silk, Microduoplex, Super Simplex, Tricot, Sheer Cup Lining, or Bra Tulle as a base fabric. One kit contains everything that you need to make a bra and has enough fabric for 2 with many sizes if you pick up an extra bra finishing kit. To get the second bra with larger sizes, upgrade to the half yard of cup fabric and add a bra finishing kit.

A Jazzy Stretch Lace Bra Kit contains:

Your panty will match your lace unless you specify otherwise. As always, feel free to choose your favorite elastics or narrow lace (please leave us a note if you don't see your choice!). You can also add a 9" square of absorbent fabric for your panty panel! You can find our collection of Waist Lace and Elastics here, and our collection of Leg Lace here.

Sewing Notes:
The strength of our microduoplex fabric, which makes it so wonderful for bras, also makes it hard to puncture with needles and pins. This is true with most duoplex fabrics. Use either fine silk pins or Wonder Clips to pin (we find Wonder Clips work best), and a Microtex 80/12 needle with a smooth thread like Superior Threads So Fine or Mettler Metrosene to make it easy to sew. In testing, the So Fine thread and Microtex 80/12 won the challenge of the nicest stitch on microduoplex, and as long as my presser foot completely covered the seam allowance, we found it just as easy to sew as quilting cotton. Move the needle to the right to set the seam allowance at 1/4" since the presser foot is a bit wide. I find it works well to saturate the lace with liquid starch and let it dry before laying out your pattern pieces and cutting your fabric. This stiffens the lace until you wash it and the lace has enough body to behave well in the sewing process.
We offer all these pins, clips, needles and thread here on our site.
