RECOMMENDED FABRIC The Willowdale Bra can be made using the same fabric for the main and lining, or it can be lined using a lighter weight lining fabric with similar stretch properties. Consult the pattern's instruction booklet for the specific elastic and notions needed for your bra size. Main fabric & lining: Lightweight fabric with low stretch (Maximum 20% in one direction only, also known as 2 way stretch), such as low stretch 40 denier nylon tricot or a low stretch poly/lycra fabric.

Lace: Stretch lace with at least 20% stretch, with decorative edging (scallops), at least 6” (15 cm) wide for view A, and at least 8” (20 cm) wide for view B. ELASTICS Plush back band elastic (½" or ¾" depending on size) with optional picot edge Plush back underarm elastic (3/8" or ½")  with optional picot edge Strap elastic (½" or ¾" depending on size) NOTIONS Hook & eye closure (3 or 4 rows depending on size) 2 rings and sliders  (½" or ¾" depending on size) Underwire channeling Pair of rounded, regular underwires Universal needle and thread Optional: Lingerie bow TOOLS Spray fabric adhesive (View B - optional), tailor’s ham or rolled up towel, walking foot for sewing machine (optional), press cloth. --- PDF pattern information New to PDF sewing patterns? See our complete guide here.
