Really poor fit
The band on this pattern is really oddly shaped and extremely short. I also accidentally purchased this pattern 3 times due to having visited the site and adding to cart multiple times and Orange Lingerie never responded to my email asking for a correction. Really disappointing to have paid $50 for a bad pattern.

great Pattern
The fit of this bra was spot on - even the first attempt was wearable. Only the measuring of the bra band seems odd to me, the difference between the suggested length and the length I really need was huge. Besides: wonderful pattern for a classic, pretty bra. Good explanations, easy to follow - and a very versatile pattern, too!
