A while ago I bought some gorgeous organic cotton stretch fabric to make my own underwear. I made a few but in the end sewing stretch fabric on the machine was driving me insane. I had the pieces for my knickers cut out and they were sitting in my sewing box for at least a year until I discovered Natalie Chanin's label and found a way to incorporate her style into my designs.
I salvaged the thread from an abandoned thread factory. It's really good quality linen thread perfect for hand stitching.
I seem to be making a lot of underwear of late, at least it's useful! I sewed these up over a few hours and took my time to enjoy the process.
