Fix a Detached Elastic Strap

• 1). Trim the detached end of the strap elastic to make it straight and even.
  
  
• 2). Place the elastic strap back in place on the underside of the elastic band of the bra 1/2-inch below the old zip-zag stitching, and pin into place.
  
  
• 3). Sew the strap to the bra on the front side, using the zig-zag stitch of the sewing machine. Sew over the continuous existing line of zig zag stitch, filling in the broken or removed stitches. Make 3 rows of stitching, one over the other, covering the entire width of the strap elastic.
  
  
• 4). Remove the pin.
  
  

Fix a Loose Bow

• 1). Trim any loose threads at the bow site and clip off the bow if it's loose.
  
  
• 2). Place the bow on the bra where it is to be attached.
  
  
• 3). Place both the bra and bow underneath the sewing machine needle.
  
  
• 4). Sew the bow to the bra through the center of the bow knot, using a machine straight stitch. Begin the stitch 1/8 inch from one edge of the bow and end it 1/8-inch after the other edge. Stitch the bow on using 3 rows of stitching, one on top of another.
