Day 9 of the swimwear sewalong and I've diverted from making my bikini top towards making the bottoms.
I knew with the bikini top that I was approaching a stage where I'd need an overlocker and so I thought while I was threading it up I may as well go ahead and make a start on the briefs. Briefs are such a quick and satisfying thing to sew!

It can be quite a challenge to make a matching set of bra and briefs, particularly when the bra pattern calls for non-stretch fabric. Sheer mesh is a great fabric to use to tie in to the bra's colours and the stretch factor means there is a lot of options for which briefs pattern to use.
Do you have a favourite material, tip or trick for making a matching set?
