Lingerie Sewing Series

3-Part Project-Based Series | Take One Class or Complete the Series

Learn to sew beautiful, comfortable lingerie and lounge staples using soft bamboo cotton jersey and stretch lace — on a regular sewing machine. No serger required.

Our Lingerie Sewing Series is designed around patterns from Riesling & Rose, with each class focusing on a different garment and introducing new skills for sewing stretch fabrics, lingerie elastic and lace.

Each class is designed to stand on its own, so you can register for the project that interests you most. However, the series has been intentionally structured to build your skills from one class to the next.

Start with the Lace Bralette, move into Panties, and then bring everything together with the more advanced Bodysuit.

Part 3: Bodysuit

The Bodysuit brings the skills from the first two classes together in a more involved garment.

Working with bamboo cotton jersey and stretch lace, we’ll learn how to accurately measure, cut, construct and finish a comfortable fitted bodysuit.

Skills may include:

• Measuring for a fitted stretch garment
• Understanding torso length and garment fit
• Cutting larger stretch pattern pieces accurately
• Combining bamboo jersey and stretch lace
• Managing negative ease
• Sewing stretch seams
• Applying lingerie elastic
• Constructing leg openings
• Creating clean lingerie finishes
• Troubleshooting fit
• Completing a more complex stretch garment from start to finish

By the end of the class, you’ll have a finished bodysuit and a much stronger understanding of how stretch garments and lingerie are constructed.
