This grey stuff is from a Merckwaerdigh kit, which I bought on Etsy. It came with lace which I used on the Madalynne bralette. I thought I should give the Watson another try since my first try was pretty good (see here) but I didn't like the long line bra at all.
This time I learnt from my recent Marlborough experience and cut out the B cup instead of C. Still with a 32 band.
I double layered everything, therefore avoiding any elastic on the center of the cups, but I used powermesh on the band, and so I didn't figure out how to get a clean finish when attaching the cups to the band.
It was pretty easy and I didn't do anything else surprising. It fits pretty well although the band looks like it's wrinkled, it seems to sit just fine. However, the support that the center elastic usually gives would be nice to have. Next time I will probably go ahead and use elastic there but make sure it's a very low profile elastic - I hated all the frilly bits sticking out on my first Watson attempt. Of course it's not the kind of bra that lifts and centers, but it's good for very low impact sports. The band is actually a bit loose and I'll eventually get around to fixing that.
