Are you new to the wonderful world of bra sewing? If so, then we heartily recommend that you attend our Beginner Experience. This course takes a slow, guided, thorough walk through all the basics of bra sewing.
We spend 4 weeks together with daily activities and twice a week meetings. Don’t worry if you can’t be there in person – everything is recorded, and you can pick it up at a time that is convenient for you.
At the end you’ll not only have a wireless bra, you’ll also have a solid foundation to build upon. While you can get some of this experience at an in-person bra sewing class or retreat, the Bee fills in all the gaps and gets you going!
Our Bee on a Wire course is perfect for sewists who have taken a beginning class or course (like our Beginner Experience or an in-person class) and want to advance to a well fitting underwired bra. You might have tried to make a wired bra and can’t seem to get the fit right. You might be starting out and are eager to make your first wired bra. You might even be an experience bra sewist but are still not quite satisfied with your wire or your pattern.
You will learn SO MUCH as you work with our amazing teachers and participate in our events. There is no single pattern or wire type that is right for everyone, and this course will help you choose an appropriate pattern, find a size and make alterations and finally take a look at a variety of wires and see how they work in your bra, on your body. This can become your go-to bra pattern, or you can use it to continue to explore.
You will love sewing lingerie! It’s fast, it’s not complicated and you wear it every day! Get a taste of what the Hive and the Bra Bee Academy is all about by taking our FREE underwear course.
Let the Bra Bee Team walk you through the wonderful world of sewing your own underwear. We’ll look at materials, patterns, alterations and creativity and you’ll walk away with something oh-so-cute to wear.
