Welcome to the October 11th, 2019 Edition of Lingerie Sewing: Weekend Round Up!

It’s a quick catch up for you to enjoy over the weekend with a cup of coffee or tea.

This week’s roundup image features the Darcey Sports Bra! I pattern hacked Evie la Luve’s popular Darcey Bra Pattern and turned it into a sports bra.

New Undie Pattern: Trixie Briefs

Jennifer Lauren Handmade also released a new underwear pattern this week: The Trixie Briefs! As per the pattern maker:

The Trixie Briefs have a higher rise at the back and full bum coverage — they’re star jump proof and the ultimate in everyday comfort, all while being a quick and satisfying make.

With classic or panelled options, you can make Trixie in your choice of a modern hipster brief or a 50s-inspired true high-waisted style (sitting above your belly button, at your natural waist).
