... woops, better late than never!
With all my crazy pre-Christmas sewing, followed by the stiflingly hot post-Christmas coma period, I totes forgot to post that I am taking part in Amy's Bra Sew-along, over at cloth habit....
Join us!

Now, I have made a few bras for myself already but I'm ashamed to say that the most perfunctory of measuring sessions was employed before I decided on same size I've been buying for years and years and years and years ("and years", recurring) since I've always felt perfectly comfortable in them.... yes, I know, lame excuse and how lazy, right?  So I have a selection of nice and comfy 12A's (34A) in my drawer....   Well, in the spirit of "gettin' serious" about mastering the perfect bra I did three separate measuring sessions in each of the following 85b International bra size calculator, the Berlei bra size calculator, and the Victoria's Secret How to Measure page... that's nine measuring sessions; and in each case came up with 10A (32A).  Hmmm.  No wonder my bras were lovely and comfy if they're all a tad too big!
So for the sew-along, I am going to be brave, and try out the smaller size...
I will be using KwikSew 3300
