This bra is lovely. I would like to know where you got the casings and the under wire from, I would also like to know if there is something else that I can use as an under wire?

What kind of material do you use for tubing for the underwires? Whenever I make a bra, it works until the underwire pokes thru the tubing. I’m puzzled.

you’ll need some bra casing to fit the wires into, allowing for a bit of movement. or wire spring.
you can cross grade cup sizes,
so a 34A wire would also fit 32B & 30C
a 34B wire will also fit 32C & 30 D
a 34C wire will fit 36B, & 32D
a 34D wire will also fit 38B & 36C
a 34DD wire will also fit 38C etc

Thanks, I don t think I could find those und.wires to buy here but I suppose I could recycle from an old bra that fits me. I m looking forward to any instructions, I think it ll be useful for making swimwear top as well!!
