Visit Booby Traps
As we are a factory outlet and not a shop, it is your
opportunity to buy goods at factory prices. Kits, fabrics, elastics etc. all
available for sale - and you are welcome to rummage through the remnants.
It is possible to visit at various times, however it is best to
make an appointment. Never arrive without a phone call first or your visit may
be in vain - we are not always here.
This is a great fun day for everyone. This is not a
'copy-your-bra' class, we use a commercial pattern and adjust to fit. The first
bra is not always perfect (bra fitting is very individual)- but we come close.
We ask that you wear your best fitting bra to class as we will be helping with
fit. Techniques include attaching elastic and lace.
Knickers (Half or Full Day)
Select from the 4 styles on the Booby Traps pattern. Choose from
poly-cotton, lightweight lycra, elastane (control briefs) or allover stretch
lace. This is a fun day and a good introduction to lingerie making for the
beginner.
Camisole or Chemise (Half or Full
Day)
Practical or Sensual ?
The Camisole or Chemise class is for the very beginner to the advanced.
Create a practical piece of lingerie using techniques such as; stretch sewing,
lace application to knit fabrics, mitre lace rouleau and elastic application.
