Skill level:

Intermediate. Attaching the cups to the center front of the cradle requires some careful sewing to get a nice pointed shape. Attaching the lining with enclosed seams requires working with multiple layers of fabric. Bralette uses straight and zigzag stitches. Instructions are fully illustrated, and include links for videos showing the process of attaching the band with the “burrito method”, and attaching the cups to the cradle.
