If you’ve followed my blog for any amount of time, you’ve probably heard me mention Jeanette. I took all my professional classes with Jeanette, and I have the honor of still working with her on occasion.
Well, Jeanette has just opened The Bra Making Academy online.
Now you can take classes with Jeanette too.
I loved taking courses with Jeanette. Her classes are full of little tips that are wonderful to learn – and honestly I already knew how to sew a bra, so those tips meant even more to me. I still use many of them now.

Isn’t this pretty? I really love the lace. It has a barely there look to it with delicate floral outlines and just a hint of color on the petals.
Oh, I like that. Who knew lace addiction was a real thing?
And lastly, here’s the back view.
As I said, it is basic, but it’s a very pretty basic black.
I think it will go perfectly with my second black bra, so it’s current waiting for the mail to arrive.
Right there, where I’ve put the pin.
Here’s the back. I skipped the keyhole this time as I’m busy sewing two garments per week with this class.
Honestly, I think I fell in love with the lace here, but our first assignment was a woven top, and this does fit that.
I love that little keyhole design on the back. 
I’m still having trouble with my hands, and all this comes at such a bad time. I’m taking the Pattern Fitting 101: Demystifying Fit from Head to Toe course from 
They’re not fancy, but they will coordinate well with my platinum Freja bra.
Initially, I was feeling a bit disappointed the lace trim was so dark, but it actually helps to bring the colors together a bit more.
This was the last of my grey cotton Lycra fabric, and to get two pair of panties out of it, I had to add a seam to the back of one pair. Shhh. No one will know but us.
I’m feeling very motivated to sew up a whole fall/winter bra collection. Let’s hope I can sew that much.
Yes, I do think that darker lace trim really does help to bring these two together.
Most of my makes are a full hipster with lace trim, but I decided to make one of my Clovers with a little more lace this time.
I had a hard time finding Ivory cotton Lycra that wasn’t almost white. Clearly I did find some though.
That’s pretty close in color. The other ‘Ivory’ I bought was a lot more white.
These are darling! I added some narrow plush band elastic inside the waist because this is really stretchy stretch lace. 
I love this set!
I love it! I’m much happier with it than I even thought I’d be.
I’m really going to have to get busy sewing some panties to match all these bras I’ve made.
It’s just a lovely platinum back.
Hmm. Even my display needs matching panties!
Oh! (you’ve heard this before) I love this! I was thinking as I was finishing this bra that it doesn’t seem to matter how many bras I’ve made, I still fall in love over and over with the lace, and the pattern, or how it looks when it’s finished.
That peek of fuchsia elastic is just gorgeous! I love that.
I’m not done making a new bra wardrobe using the Freja pattern. I have two more kits sitting on my cutting table ready to be made up into more pretty bras.
I recently purchased the 
Not long after that, this lovely Gunilla kit was available. I looked to see if this kit was still on her website, but unfortunately it’s not. It wouldn’t hurt to request it again though.
Oh, I love this lace. I do hope I can get some more of it too. It would look wonderful with ivory or blue, but I have to say the red really makes it pop!
Do you see that peek of ivory at the back? For a long time I wouldn’t make a bra if the kit didn’t have all matching parts. The band and straps had to be the same color. But I’m more open to coordinating fabrics like this set now. It gives me more options too. 
I’m thrilled with a new pattern that fits me so well. I already have 3 more kits on the cutting table to make next. I do have plans to test a few more patterns, but I really love this bra pattern.
