My mission to best the wandering boob pad...

Being a frequent exerciser and having an anatomy that requires a little support in the upper regions, I have long operated under the need to utilize a sports bra in my athletic endeavors.  I have a whole stash of these wardrobe essentials and they all have one thing in common.... removable boob pads.

I have not figured out why any woman would actually want to remove the boob pads, as they exist (in my opinion) exclusively to eliminate the dreaded headlight scenario while exercising.  (Yes its cold in here, stop looking at my nipples!)

I have begrudgingly washed these bras and then spent at least 10 minutes of each week at laundry time, finding and replacing the escapees and repositioning ALL of them  because even if they don't escape in the wash, they get all scared from the washing beatings and enter a fetal-like scrunched up position within the bra and STILL require manual effort to relocate internally.

While this has annoyed me for a while, its only been in the past 3 weeks an idea has been stewing in my brain.  Enter my beloved Pfaff sewing machine, I'm gonna teach these boob pads who's boss, once and for all!!!
