What size bra?
Patterns come in all sizes. There are different methods for determining the proper size. The following description is based on "Kwik•Sew Method for Sewing Lingerie", copyright 1978.(unfortunately out of print).
- Measure around the body under the bust and add 4" to this measurement. This is approximately the size pattern that you will need. Generally round an odd number up to the next even number.
- To determine the cup size, first measure around the fullest part of the bust. Then measure around the body above the bust. Subtract this measurement from the full bust measurement. Every full inch difference is a cup size. For example, if the difference is 1" choose an A cup. If the difference is 2", choose a B cup; etc.
- This will give you the appropriate pattern size. However, by making your own bra, you can adjust the pattern not only in size, but also to your measurements, e.g. the distance between the breasts. The distance between the bra cups can be altered by adding or subtracting from the center front piece of the pattern.
