Our Lace Bra Kits take the guesswork out of bra building by putting together everything you'll need to make a beautiful bra using your own Willowdale pattern.
Nothing could be finer than to have bra building goodness coming to you every month of the year. As you know, we've been releasing kits of the month for the past 3 years, with each one being something beautiful in its own unique way. I can't tell you how many times we've sold out of a kit well before the end of the month because I've lost track! I'm showing you a small sample of beautiful Willowdale bras made up out of our lovely kits in the photo.
We've heard your cries, and we've come up with the perfect solution -- get in the front of the line (and save a little money while you're at it). All the kits will be suitable for the Willowdale pattern, and you have the option to get the matching panty also. The system will generate an order for you and will automatically bill your credit card. Then just relax, knowing that you have something special coming every month. If you get another order placed between the 20th of the month and last day of of the month we'll combine your orders and refund as much shipping as we can. We'll also do our best to give you early notice of coordinating items that might be releasing with the kit, like a special bamboo for undies or something like that. If we have a silk option we'll reach out to you to see if you'd like that upgrade and bill you the difference separately. Finally, we'll offer you the option for the regular kit of the month lace made up into a Willowdale kit. The Willowdale is unique in that it is only suitable for a stretch lace. We've sourced some beauties for the Willowdale Kit of the Month club! In addition, we also have a lovely set of tulle laces which are often featured in our regular Kit of the Month Club. You can ask us to change things up for you so that you get a Willowdale version of the tulle lace kit. You can also just add the regular kit of the month when it seems to really call to you and have 2 beautiful bra kits!
Please let us know if you'd like to order the Willowdale Kit of the Month Club for a gift-giving occasion and we'll wrap up your first kit to make things special. You can place it under the tree or in the stack of birthday, Mother's Day or other special day gifts.
This bra kit features either Super Simplex, Tricot or Bra Tulle as the base fabric. One kit contains everything that you need to make a bra and has enough fabric for 2 with many sizes. Our Willowdale Help Page contains all the info about selecting your kit size, your options, fabrics and lace. Its a great place to begin if you are newer to bra sewing or new to the Willowdale pattern- or both!
The Willowdale Pattern is available here from the Cashmerette website. The size chart is here, and the fitting guide is here. Don't forget to take advantage of your coupon code for the Willowdale Pattern!
