I hate the padded bras since I find them uncomfortable and hot...and really hot and sweaty when having hot flashes.

I'm broad chested, but not well-endowed, 38A...and Cooper's droop is settling in(old age).
Since the bra companies like to make bra cup sizes for the more fully figured ladies that are 38s and above, I'm having a difficult time finding a cup that fits.


I'm laughing at myself right now; I just confused to what I have been researching. You now know that I'm really nuts since I want to make my own bra. I have also been thinking of designs. There has got to be a better way of making a bra that works in lift and is comfy too.

And yes, this bra will be made with a vintage sewing machine!
