Enhance your sewing skills, enjoy expert guidance, and leave with a beautiful homemade lingerie set that fits perfectly.
Duration: 7 days of 2h sessions each day
In the first edition it is possible to learn the basics and make a simple triangle bra and matching briefs/thong.
Now, with the second edition, it is possible to go one step further: make your own underwire bra! Of course you can also make a matching pair by adding matching briefs or a thong. Choose between different types of underwire bras and choose between different briefs or a thong. The classes are taught by the experienced lingerie designer Leanne.
This is the second part of the lingerie course. If you want to follow this course it is advised that you follow the first edition first, but it is not obligatory. If you have some basic sewing experience, especially working with stretchy materials and elastics, you can also sign up for this course (especially if you have a bigger size and if the triangle-bralette is not fitting you).
The classes are taught by the experienced lingerie designer Leanne.
