I don’t know about you but my Pinterest is fille

I don’t know about you but my Pinterest is filled with private boards of designer/independant lingerie that are just fabulous! 🤩

And do you know what makes them so pleasing to the eye?

It’s all in the details!

Maybe they have used the most delicate looking lace contrasted with sheer mesh. 😍

Maybe there is a continuity to the set. All the colours completely match, (No white straps in sight that stand out a mile off when the rest of the set is all matching! 😅)

Or maybe there’s those tiny little detials like a small keyhole in the back of the knicker that looks effortless, you hardly notice it because it creates such a sleek look.

Have you thought about what it is for you that makes that lingerie you lust after look so beautiful?

If this is something you’d love to be able to do then keep your eyes and ears peeled, as I have something coming soon that will help you with exactly this! 😜

So, what is my Elastic Tension Technique? I notic

So, what is my Elastic Tension Technique?

I noticed that lots of you who had started sewing their own lingerie were struggling due to the elastics and stretch fabrics.

You’d struggle to get the right tension on the elastic so it didn’t lay flat and fit as it should do.

Maybe the edges would be wavy or really gathered or some areas would feel loose when you used the correct size pattern?

I totally understand the frustration.

This is actually a very common thing to struggle with because it’s not something you really have to do on any type of garment apart from other stretch garments like swimwear.

So it’s a really unique technique!

So I came up with a way to help you achieve the perfect tension no matter your skill level!

My Elastic Tension Technique ensures that no matter what level you are at you will still being able to apply the perfect elastic tension, creating a professional looking sewn garment and that can be analysed for fit correctly. 😄

I tell you the elastic % reduction for each different ares of differnt lingerie garments and how to apply them for your skill level!

How do I know the differnt % for different areas on lingerie garments?

12 years of experience sewing lingerie not only for myself but professionally aswell! 🤓

I studied Contour Fashion for my BA degree, I worked for luxury lingerie brands after my graduation, have sewn hundreds of lingerie garments and also develop intimate apparel products for businesses!

If you thought you just had to wing it and hope for the best, then nope! I’ve got you! 🙋🏻‍♀️♥️

So if you’ve had enough of the stuggle, then The Ultimate Lingerie Sewing Course is for you!

Imagine… in 3 months time you could be ready to launch your first lingerie set to sell!

Psst you also get 2 months of 1:1 email support plus other amazing bonuses such as me new wired bra making fit guide!

Lingerie making isn’t just about feeling amazing

Lingerie making isn’t just about feeling amazing in something you’ve made for yourself, even though this is clearly the main benefit. 😄

You can personally make a stand on what matters to you in life and that feels bloody good too!

For me, I love the self responsibility of making something myself. I’ve made it, and I know the full story. I’ve taken it into my hands to create the best lingerie for me. And yeah it really is the best!

I can choose exactly what fabrics to use and where I buy those!

I’ve used my own time and energy to make something for myself that is going to make me feel amazing and comfortable and the accomplishment you feel from that is massively outweighs shop bought lingerie.

It’s the same feeling as training for a marathon and completing it. You feel so proud of yourself after the amount of time and energy you put into training for it.
That’s how making your own lingerie can make you feel too.

Although it’s much easier to sew your own lingerie than to run a marathon (in my experience anyway 😂)

If you want to take matters into your own hands and…

🙌 You believe you can sew better lingerie than the shops

🌿 You know you can create more sustainable lingerie

💪 You love to take responsibility for the things that the lingerie shops couldn’t give you

Then the doors are now open to The Ultimate Lingerie Sewing Course where you can learn to sew a pro lingerie set within 6 weeks using my Elastic Tension Technique! 🤩

Would it surprise you if I told you that the bra w

Would it surprise you if I told you that the bra where the elastic was applied incorrectly actually turned out atleast a size too big on the band? 😬

Yep, because the wrong elastic tension had been applied on the band of the bra it atcually massively changed the fit of the bra. In this case, stretched out the fabric.

This is why you have to make sure your foundations in lingerie sewing are nailed before you analise the fit, because it really does make a huuuuge difference!

One of the foundations being elastic tension!

And this is why I created the Elastic Tension Tehcnique which we go through in The Ultimate Lingerie Sewing course.

It teaches you how to apply the perfect elastic tension on different lingerie garments no matter if you are at beginner level or advanced.

I give you the exact percentages/measurements to use on different areas of lingerie garments so you can sew professional looking lingerie! 💅

You will be able to actually analyse the fit of your lingerie patterns because you know the elastic tension is sewn as it should be. 💁🏻‍♀️

If you’re struggling with elastic tension in lingerie garments or you want to fast track your way to sew your own lingerie set without the stress, then my Revamped Ultimate Lingerie Sewing Course is for you!

And I’m excited to share the doors are now open! 🎉

Head to my link in bio and sign up to get started on your way to a professional looking lingerie set 😍

P.s I have revamped it so you can get the best results out of it with ease! 😘
