Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Sort of - but it seems to cover more than in the dubious cover art!
Were the instructions easy to follow?
Fantastic, fabulous, wonderful.. I don't there is a major pattern company that can compete with Kwik Sew instructions.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
Diagonal seam cup, partial band, underwire
Fabric Used:
lace, powernet, satin
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
Used ready made sparkly straps
Reduced width of back at ends as the closure I had was about 3cm rather than the 4cm needed
Used ready made underwire channelling
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
I think this may be my new favourite bra pattern. I might have the reduce the coverage a tiny bit, but this is a great pattern, and will covert well to a padded bra if desired.
Conclusion:
Great pattern which I will be using LOTS more!
I also think this lace would work better with white fabric rather than black, and since I have more, that will be my next experiment!.

You did a great job! I like the colors you chose, it looks like something you could buy in a store!
