After a long battle to find a fitting tankini in the shop I’ve decided to make one on my own. I had an elastic fabrick in the closet (a long black skirt found in the second hand) and decided to use it. Unfortunatelly I didn’t check and it turned out at the end that you can see through it:P I will have to add some extra fabrick as a kind of lining.
Anyway I am quite happy with the result.
I used the instructions from www.patternschool.com to do the bra part and then added this belly part. Then I embroidered white flowers and added some beads.
The panties I made on the basis of the old ones that I have. They turned out a little skimpy:) But they will do:P
