To Kick off the 3rd instalment of our Pin Up Sew Along, I am giving away a copy of my PDF “Betty” High Waist Panties Pattern. It contains sizes xs-lg (34″ hip to 41″ hip), and is easily grade-able. These knickers have been designed for Stretch Knits, but I will show you how to make them accommodate a woven front and back panel. They use about 1 yard of fabric, but because of the princess seaming, you can mix and match fabrics easily, and use up some scraps from your stash!
Here’s how to enter:
- Leave a comment on this post letting me know how you’ll be sewing your Betty Knickers – stretch satin, lace, jersey? Please also leave me an email address where I can contact you if you are the lucky winner!
- Like Ohhh Lulu on Facebook for an additional Entry
- Tweet (@OhhhLulu) or Blog about the Give Away and Sew along for a 3rd entry.
I’ll be accepting Entries from TODAY (Monday, April 9th) and Drawing a name on Friday, April 13th.
Good Luck! And thanks everyone for your input along the way!
THIS GIVE AWAY IS NOW CLOSED! Congratulations Melody – You are the winner!

April 9, 2012 at 12:22 pmTrying to decide which fabric I should use first! Maybe jersey to begin with then stretch satin. Looks like a fantastic pattern.

April 9, 2012 at 12:48 pmooh. I love the lacy sides. I would probably do that with some satin in the middle. What a great giveaway. Thank you!

I would make it with a black sheer mesh with dots and probably use small elastic spaghetti straps on the seams and some purple stretch satin in the middlle.and a corset binding with a small round elastic on the side

April 9, 2012 at 1:37 pmStretch satin of course! 🙂 And perhaps something pinstripe? With a little lace along the leg opening for a girly border. 🙂 Also liked on facebook!

April 9, 2012 at 1:48 pmStretch-lace maybe, I got some red in my stash already. But I will probably stick to cotton since my ladybits doesn't approve of synthetics. And my email is gabriellazamudio(at)gmail(dot)com

April 9, 2012 at 2:16 pmI don't have satin in my stash, but I have been meaning to make panties for awhile. I love your pattern as I don't care for the skimpy ones!

April 9, 2012 at 5:25 pmOooh, these would look lovely in jersey+lace!
Rachel Proffitt
April 9, 2012 at 5:40 pmhmmm… well I would really want them to match the corset I am working on- so I would want woven panels for sure. And then… oooh lace. I love the idea of lacey sides!
And then… well I would want to make more, so stretch satin would probably be next on my list 😉

April 9, 2012 at 6:35 pmI would sew it in mesh with a black silk panel and contrast stitching! Very cute pattern.

April 9, 2012 at 7:30 pmBlue and white Stripped stretch satin to create a chevron pattern, buttons sewn on the seams for that sailor look. Summer is round the corner after all.

April 9, 2012 at 7:51 pmWoo hoo, these are gorgeous. I'm pretty sure that if I had this pattern in my hands I would attempt them in silk, jersey and lace. My first attempt woud likely be in jersey though.

April 9, 2012 at 8:22 pmHmm… I'm stuck stash diving for the time being, so I would probably make it out of some white jersey on the sides and a yellow rose print satin for the front and back.

April 11, 2012 at 8:41 pmI would do these in stretch satin and lace, maybe in a cream satin and orange lace (up the sides), 'cause creamsicles are my favorite for summer!:) I also liked you on Facebook and tweeted the giveaway. Love this pattern!

April 12, 2012 at 6:10 pmThank you for the chance to win such a cute pattern! I think the first go would be in stretch jersey, but I'd love to do some with stretch satin front and back and lace on the side panels…

April 13, 2012 at 10:41 pmI have stretch lace, a few colors of stretch satin, and a gauzy stretch knit to sew some up in. Maybe I'll do a silk center panel on one pair, with stretch lace side panels. It is a lovely pattern! And I have been following you on Facebook, though I don't use twitter.
