About this product

Author Beverly Johnson, undeniably the "Wizard of Bras", has written more of what she knows about bra design, draft, fit and construction and packed it into a her second book. Nothing from the first book, the original Bra-makers Manual, has been repeated in this all-new material collection of professional construction techniques, advanced fitting challenges and more.

This book details drafting a bra from 6 body measurements, grading a bra into multiple sizes, working with lace and a huge chapter on working with foam bra cups. There's even a chapter on machine know-how and how to use the attachments peculiar to bra-making. 8 pages with full-colour photographs.


The Bra-makers Manual has everything you have wanted to know about making bras but didn’t know where to look. This is the original and first book of its kind, written as a textbook for the custom bra-maker. Home sewers up for a bit of a challenge will find this book a complete reference on bra design, draft, fit, and construction. Even if you never sew a bra for anyone else, you will thoroughly enjoy making your own well-fitting and supportive bras.

Author Beverly Johnson explains how to obtain the pattern for your bra (there are many sources) and how to change that one basic pattern into a library of bra styles and designs. You will learn to fit like a pro, how to choose and control fabric, and how to duplicate all of the professional techniques you see in ready to wear – including strapless, nursing, and mastectomy bras. There are optional patterns to purchase that were developed for use with this book. Please see the pattern section for the new Classic Bra pattern. This book is 240 pages with 4 colour pages of pictures.
