  • #BRAugust Day 15: WIP| Are you working on a lingerie or swimwear sewing project currently? Show us a snapshot of your work in progress! 📷 • Today we have a giveaway from Milena of @eclipse_lingerie_studio! Milena will be giving away a Karmah Pattern Set (Bra & Panties). Please note that the pattern is in French, but there are tons of illustrations that go with the French instructions! • A bit about today's sponsor! Milena is 32 and lives in Grenoble, France. Before she started making lingerie, she used to be a costume and corset maker for theater in Paris! She moved to Grenoble where she started her handmade lingerie brand @mr_est_une_trainee_lingerie, which she still has today. She has always loved teaching and sharing about sewing and crafts in general, so she started sharing lingerie sewing tips and tutorials on her lingerie brand's blog. • She quickly realized that there were a lot of people in France who are interested in sewing lingerie, but there are almost no patterns available in French even though France is known all around the world for its fine and luxury lingerie brands. So she decided to do something about it! She started a lingerie pattern line--Eclipse Lingerie Studio. Now she works 50/50 on @mr_est_une_trainee_lingerie and @eclipse_lingerie_studio. Also for anyone who is in Europe or France, Milena will be teaching lingerie sewing classes starting in September and she has a few more patterns coming! • To enter the giveaway, simply do the following: follow @eclipse_lingerie_studio and tag @eclipse_lingerie_studio in your #BRAugust entry for today. The winner will be selected by the sponsor within 48 hours.
