Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I made this swimsuit from the McCall’s two piece swimwear pattern. I made it from red polyester lycra. It has red ruffles, black elastic, and black serged edges. I wore it for the first time swimming and thanks to all the elastic it stayed put!

Thank you! Generally I do have to do a number of modifications on clothes I make from commercial patterns.
