Judy's beautiful sewing projects reminded me that I enjoy sewing creatively too. I like to sew things for my family that are hard to find. My daughter wanted a sports bra in her size, with a strap to keep her heart rate monitor from irritating her skin. Here is a picture of the sports bra I created starting from a sports top. This picture is my third version. I really enjoyed finding design solutions with my daughter to match her requirements of a functional garment. My daughter choose the fun material! Why not enjoy what you wear.

Great idea! You could patent these. Design is an artform - there is a great deal of know how to merging functionality with aesthetics. It's nice to know that you realized this project would be appropriate for your blog after being inspired by one of your classmates. That is the beauty of "social software" - of which blogs are one type. Creativity and understanding are contagious!
Leisbet... I think you are on to something with this bra! I may have to hire you to make me one. When I made them in highschool I never thought of attaching a heart monitor around it. You'll have to let me know if it works well and then I may just have to create one myself. Thanks for the idea!
Thanks for sharing this. It reminds me of my creative days, and how much I miss sewing.
