Bras by Kristen

Explaining the process of bra drafting for potential clients or drafting students.

 I asked a LONG time ago for links to some folk's favorites and then I put them together on this page and promptly forgot about it for a year.  So here's some links gleaned out of one of the bramaking groups on facebook.  I haven't checked all these links, but here they are.

A 5-part tutorial for Elan 645 bra pattern http://hooksandwires.blogspot.com/search/label/Elan%20645

And same for Elan 511 https://hooksandwires.blogspot.com/search/label/Elan%20511

And here's part 1 of her tutorial for Elan 530. (Links to next three parts are in the right margin.) These feel a bit dated (10 years old already!) but are well done. http://hooksandwires.blogspot.com/2010/03/elan-530-tutorial-part-one-trace-cut.html
