Sewing Swimsuits

Last year I discovered I love making swimsuits. This year I've made three (so far) for Lana since they're so quick and fun. The top one seems to be her favorite one. The middle one is a pattern I came up with myself based off another suit I'd seen. That one wasn't so quick because it took me forever to get my pattern just right but it turned out exactly how I was hoping. The last one is made from a vintage Kwik Sew pattern. I was skeptical of the sizing and the first one I made turned out to be too short in the torso. Also I didn't like a few other things about it so I tried again and was very happy with the results the second time. I started another one over the weekend but my design wasn't quite right so that one was pushed aside for now.
