A Gorgeous Margareta

I was really happy with the alterations I made to my Margareta pattern. Things fit before, and honestly after so many years struggling to fit my Omega shape, I was really weary of more alterations. So I was accepting good.

But better is better. This is a kit I bought last year and I just love it! It’s a teal color with ivory floral lace. It was a kit of the month in January or February, and I’d been saving it. I used some of the lace along the power bar. I love this look. The solid color behind the lace just gives it a really different look. The upper cup is sheer, but the power bar is detailed as well. The kit came with ivory power net, and an ivory findings kit.   The ivory looks lovely with this teal color, and of course the lace is ivory, so it all goes together very well. This kit didn’t come with a bow, but it needed a bow! You know me – it has to be bow worthy. I’m going to need to stock up on bows.

I’m thrilled with the shortening alteration I did, and I already have my next bra cut out.

If you’ve been where I was, don’t give up! Sometimes changing the pattern you’re trying will help, sometimes it’s just one more little alteration and you’ll be really happy with your bra-making.

Happy creating!
