Description

This is a bikini that I custom designed for my friend Celia. It is based on a Patagonia design. Someday I hope to have the pattern for sale in my online store. Don’t hold your breath though. It will probably take some time.

Material Notes

Here is the address for my store. Right now I have a lot of vintage patterns, supplies, and books. www.mountainhoney.etsy.com

    Don’t be afraid of swim wear or Lycra. “Singer Sewing Activewear” is the book that got me started. It has all the information you need including lots of color photos and step by step instructions.

    Very nice!!! I am hoping that it is really not that hard, as I am in dire need to be able to sew my own swim-wear – the stores just don’t have it!

      Go for it! It’s not that hard. Try something simple first.
