How can matching underwear be so expensive, and then why is most of it so hideously unflattering anyway? I bought a white bra years ago that fit perfectly...before long it was a grey bra that fit perfectly, and besides I never had a matching set for it. Here is the finished product and the tutorial on how I did it.

Step 1: Find an old bra and choose your fabric.





I chose to use stretchy fabric in a similar colour so it would match the straps. Use stretchy or jersey fabric so that it will mould round the shape of the bra.
Here I've already done one side, stage right is still to be covered.
