ok, so that time again is coming up, the time for ::gasp:: to get a swim suit. so I went to the mall and well all they had (out here that is) is skanky 2 pieces that are pretty much non existent or 1 piece that is so frumpy/huge that it looks like it crawled out of the gutter kind of suits. So I didn't find one I liked.
So my crafty side started to creep up on me again, and well the thought of making a swimsuit right now sounds ultra cool. So anyone make one before? I looked for patterns but not much luck and I looked on the internet but I can't find anything but crochet patterns so anyone know how to go abouts to make one?
I was thinking not a one piece, and not a bikini... maybe more along the lines of a tankini. so any pattern suggestions? where to buy these patterns, what fabric to use, and what kind of needle to use such and such.
if you can help, you will make my summer so much cooler :)
toodles!
