(This is the next swimsuit I make-- on my wishlist to get next!!)
What I did this week:
I sewed up a swimsuit with the cutest Jungle leaves print from Knitfabrics.com. The swimsuit was Butterick B4526 (4526). My measurements call for a size 20, but I sewed up a size 18 and I used the C/D bust option. This swimsuit features bust darts, lined, and has a shelf bra. I thought the instructions on inserting the elastic were cumbersome and extra work, so I applied the elastic as I would when making my own underwear (panties). (Check out Megan Nielsen's pattern Acacia which is free if you sign up to her newsletter...her blog tells all about making panties and adding the elastic easily). I found the size 18 fits my body, but is too loose for my bust with not enough support-- the combination of the darts and the extra space for the c/d bust made it too loose and not holding my bust up. I don't think I will be making this pattern again.
Sunday Live Coming up!! 10 am central/ 11 am eastern time: I'll be working on the Simplicity 8014 dress.
