This is to bettyboopjud---I make the cover to hide when the blouses are too low. I take a piece of paper to make a pattern. I make the pattern to be a little over the size needed from one side Bra strap to the other side strap. Enough to make the hem on the sides, then I take two small hair ties and zig zag one end of the tie to one side then the other side the same. I make sure the ties go around the strap and place a button where it should go for the tie to hold around the bra strap. Then I take a piece of lace to go across the top and it's all done.

How cool, ladies! I am an old sewer that is still hammering on the old sewing machine, Have 2 machines and one serger set up in my little house. I still sew most of the fun things in my home for for my fun old body. This is such a grand idea to make. I surely will do so for myself. Everything is so LOW, and not my speed. thanks for this great new site!!
