No I normally just replace it with something that does fit
Will you modify a piece of lingerie to make it fit?

I modify lingerie all the time. It's pretty easy for me, but doing medieval reenactments you sort of have to learn how to sew.

It depends on the price. I wouldn't pay a ton of money for something I knew I would have to go home and spend time fixing. If it was cheap, I wouldn't mind as much.

Yeah, I buy stuff that doesn't fit quite often since I know I can modify it easily. Sometimes it's too badly made to be worth it, in which case I won't bother unless it's just something like adding a tuck. But then I like sewing and make a lot of my own clothes.

It depends how difficult the on the difficulty level of the project. I have before when the project was fairly simple.

Sew if you see something that may be to small or not fit right will you buy it anyway with the intention to modify as needed.

It depends on what was needing to be done, some things I could do, others I couldn't.

I love to sew by hand, and by machine.

Depends on the quality of the piece and how much I like it. Kudos to you for sewing!

Yep I would. Most of the time I try to modify costume pieces to make them look better.
