Fabric - You will need a stretch/knit fabric. It can be any weight; however, best results and fit will be achieved with a medium weight fabric such as jersey or cotton lycra.

  • Both 4-way stretch and 2-way stretch fabrics will work. For 2-way stretch fabrics, take care to place the pattern pieces as indicated for the grainlines so that the stretch runs at right angles to the grainline.
  • Your fabric will need to have at least 40% stretch to get the fit as it's designed.
  • The stretch recovery of your fabric is just as important as the stretch percentage. This will ensure your underwear maintains its shape and fit for as long as possible and not become baggy.

  1. Mandy Jayne Tustin –

    Love this pattern, it’s so easy to follow, with fantastic instructions. There’s so many variations to make, that underwear no longer has to be boring.!

  2. Tanya Vivier –

    Started this pattern as yet another underwear pattern. Was I in for a pleasant surprise. The fit is perfect. No tugging, rolling or sagging. The underwear stayed put all day long. There definitely will be many more of these in the very near future.

  3. Urška Filipič –

    Quick and easy sew. I like the possibilities the pattern offers.

  4. Eline Ghesquiere –

    “Altough I don’t particurarly like the baggy fit of these, they sew up as fast as lightning, the second pair only took me a little over half an hour, I can’t go to the store to buy new underwear in that time.
    As usual, the instructions are superclear.
    I would however mention something about a gusset lining should be in (knit) cotton fabric, for hygienic purposes and to prevent odours.”

  5. Meghan Logsdon –

    Easy sew! Fits true to size and I love being able to buy fun patterns!!!

  6. Charlotte –

    Easy to sew and you have new underwear in no-time

  7. Jessica La –

    I love the perfect fit for curvy bodies and how easy they are made. Also the instructions guide very clearly trough the different finishing options.

  8. Angel Jordan –

    Great sew! For someone with a 10 inch difference between my waist and hips this was a welcome adjustment to the basic panty pattern. I made the high rise and the fit is super comfortable.

  9. Samantha Burton –

    Amazing pattern. Very comfortable and fits very very well. I am extremely happy with the turn out of these underwear!
