Bras are SO freakin' expensive over here, so I'm literally slapping my forehead that making my own has never occurred to me before.<br /><br />First, however, I might try to sew some cushions.

BLEH. i loathe having my picture taken -- i never think it looks like me (and i know how retarded that sounds). i have many insecurities (with reason) related to body image, and part of me just wants to post a half naked shot of me so that the mystery is over, and those that see the pics and are interested stick around, and those that are not interested can bow out and move on to the next chick. ugh. i hate dating.drollgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17098844996589898590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606088928583067206.post-6987077181352874772010-03-29T20:43:39.641-04:002010-03-29T20:43:39.641-04:00Wendy: How did I neglect to reply to your comment....Wendy: How did I neglect to reply to your comment.

There are countless creeps out there who can steal your picks and do what they'd like with them.

Those of us who posted pictures (I did) do that to learn ourselves and to help others to get the perfect fitting bra. As you know a well fitting bra makes you look much better and make your other clothes look better. If your pursuit is to make a well fitting bra yourself and want help, go for it. If you don't want to post pictures of yourself in a not well fitting bra, that's fine too of course. But like you said yourself, we're there to try to help. Robin once wrote a post and wanted to write something about a figure flaw she thinks she has, but then said "no, that's not what this blog is about", and that is so very true. It's about sewing and fitting, not about how you look. <br />I myself would never post these pictures on my regular blog, that's too public for me, and in that way we all have our boundaries of what we share or not. It's completely up to you.Sigridhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16187364244385056641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606088928583067206.post-33549024378870148752010-03-28T16:06:29.679-04:002010-03-28T16:06:29.679-04:00Are we talking Penthouse Forum?

I am amazed that you are trying to make such a difficult item but am sure the finished bra will be perfect.

It's a learning process and it's also (as we've discussed before) the most difficult category of sewing -- foundations.

I love the idea of custom sets.<br /><br />Yes, whether the photo is for my makeup, nails, or sewing, there are probably at least twenty shots that get taken and deleted by the time I find the right one. ANYONE can track down something on the internet. The last thing I want to do is post a photo of myself that I wouldn't want the whole world to see. I don't think of it as vanity. I think of it as potential publicity for when I'm a superstar! Just kidding. :)<br /><br />Good luck with the bra making!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
