Pink underwear
I've finally cut the pink Lycra and got two pieces of underwear out of 70 cm of fabric - panties and racer back cami.
There are Lycra panties around with unfinished leg openings, without elastic, and I wanted to see if it works for the homemade ones. I finished my panties only with three step zig-zag and wore them for a day. They felt too loose, though. After washing them, I unpicked the seams and added picoted elastic.

When they don't fit...
...you refashion them.
They are my size, but there is no way I can put them on and look decent.
I'm thinking, I'm thinking....Will let you know what I made up.

Basic slip from Ottobre design -WR
Since I'm not buying Burda this month I treated myself with Ottobre design woman. There are a few really nice patterns in there.
One that grabbed my attention was the slip pattern. Yes, panties again! This style was deeper than the ones I usually make so I wanted to give it a try. AND I had in mind the perfect fabric! A nice piece of Lycra from the magic bags M gave me. I'm not really a pink person but this will make great underwear. I need some pink lace, though, to make my boyfriend faint, hehe.
Lately I decided to make muslins for everything I sew. Fabric scraps abound.
And here comes the final product! Super comfy panties with colored sequins and lace band. I made them even deeper than the original with the lace. They get to my waist and will be marvelous for winter. Absolutely a wearable muslin.
I might try some variations of the pattern before cutting the pink Lycra, don't you think? And I'm a pretty fast sewing girl. This was the second item for today!
