    I love the Tribeca Cami pattern! Has anyone converted it into just a bra? I think it would be very comfortable, but I’m not sure what to do with the top layer of fabric.

    Interesting idea! I wonder if you could make it two layers with encased elastic between the two layers to finish the bottom edge? In my mind I can engineer it but… I think it would be quite easy to sew, actually!

    Thanks for the speedy response! I ended up cutting two copies of the shelf bra portion of the pattern and finishing the steps to assemble the cami. I couldn’t quite wrap my brain around how to encase the elastic and finish it, but it worked out to stitch the chest elastic to the outside so it’s exposed like a sports bra.

    That’s great! Would love to see a photo if you post it someplace. It sounds like a terrific project!
