My underwear material recommendations

For women’s underwear, camisoles, undershirts, and light bustiers, bi-stretch lace works very well.

For panties, you can also use great elastic wide lace trim. You can use it, for example, to sew the cute lace panty from SoSewEasy.

At Stoffe-Hemmers, you can get high-quality ribbing, for example in navy stripes*, solid petrol* or in dark grey with stars*. They also have ribbing fabric packs* and rainbow-colored jersey*! Sooo cute! :)

Of course, books on the subject of sewing underwear are wonderful. With them, you have patterns for matching collections ready to go right away!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can beginners also sew their own lingerie?

Of course! If possible, start by choosing a simple pattern and sew a test piece using old fabric, such as a discarded garment. Then, by the second try, you will be much more experienced and can cut into your good fabric.

Can you also sew lingerie from fabric scraps?

Yes, that's a very good idea. Especially children's underwear or simple briefs are great to sew from fabric scraps, as you don't need that much fabric for them.

What materials can be used to sew lingerie?

There are many types of fabric you can use to sew lingerie. Depending on what you want to sew, jersey, elastic lace, wide lace trim, bi-stretch lace, and ribbing fabric are all very suitable.

About the author

Sabine

I come from Siegen-Wittgenstein, where I spent my childhood breaking in cows, jumping off haystacks and scraping a D- in needlework class.

Today, being creative feels like indescribable happiness to me – and it grows even more when I can share it with others. Since 2016 I have been celebrating my passion for sewing on this blog, and I love that sewing connects so many people.
