The feeling of being loved takes away so much burden from our shoulders. I had all this but I made a big mistake when I cheated on my wife with another woman and my wife left me for over 4 months after she found out.. I was lonely, sad and devastated. Luckily I was directed to a very powerful spell caster Dr Emu who helped me cast a spell of reconciliation on our Relationship and he brought back my wife and now she loves me far more than ever.. I'm so happy with life now. Thank you so much Dr Emu, kindly Contact Dr Emu Today and get any kind of help you want..

I first tried - without success - to sew swimwear in 2016, last summer I took some class and succeeded. I have now learnt how to sew different types of bikinis, which you can check in my blog eldidalaldit.blogspot.com.es (the blog is in Catalan and in English). I find bikini sewing easy, rewarding and money saving. <br />Your swimming costume - I learned that word in the 70's when I studied English at school and hadn't heard it in many years - is very stylish but I wonder if it is comfortable, using so much fabric. Can you really swim with it? Is it appropiate for sunbathing? Does it dry fast?<br /><br />Congratulations on your blog, I am a reader but do not often comment!Estherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15416838483933287145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2464662522153586853.post-5352295379513801722018-07-21T16:27:15.099+01:002018-07-21T16:27:15.099+01:00You look fabulous in your swimming cozzie.

I stuffed up the bust on that one though so while it looked good flat it didn’t work on. So I feel you! I think it looks great, though, and very swank. :) Tanit-Isishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15824217102632813598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2464662522153586853.post-17457582047913810512018-07-21T07:13:42.470+01:002018-07-21T07:13:42.470+01:00It looks great, Zoe.

I haven't made a costume but I can't find one that I really like, instead I have a functional rather dull one and a pretty clearance joules one. I doubt my skills would hold up to making a functional costume, but if I ever did try I'd like to make a very old fashioned one with longer legs. I used to work with an old lady who used to knit her own swimming costumes!

I love the result so much I never bothered making another one. The pattern has great coverage around the lower part but shows little skin for balance. I dont swim a lot anymore but whenever I wear it I’m surprised by how relaxed I am in the suit. I still don’t like the exposure but I learned that the more I blend in the less self-conscious I feel. It takes getting used to though. When I was a triathlete I was in my swimming costume every day to the point I didn’t think much about it anymore. Now I feel weird on the beach...Roninoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2464662522153586853.post-72984608363566392902018-07-20T00:47:42.535+01:002018-07-20T00:47:42.535+01:00I made my first one very recently, from a trio of ...I made my first one very recently, from a trio of Jalie patterns. I love the bottom, as it's shorts and I don't have to be self conscious about my thigh chub and constant battle with razor burn now. I wasn't entirely thrilled with the top, as the only cups I could find don't fit that great, but I also made a rash guard for sun protection (another thing that's hard to find in your typical swim department that isn't for the kids here!) So hardly anyone will ever see that bust weirdness.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09913795373618902575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2464662522153586853.post-75342819253250837392018-07-19T22:54:31.928+01:002018-07-19T22:54:31.928+01:00Brave and very beautiful.

I have made one from the flo-jo pattern, the bum was great but the bust wasn't right and I think adding some thrifted foam cups might make my next one better. happy holidays!

The top part is very structured with those cups in there and sadly I don't think elastic would bring it closer to my body.

The back view is especially flattering and I think you look great. <br />I can see the quibbles you're talking about but I'm glad that you can overlook them and use the suit as I think that's good for a first attempt. Is there any possibility of adding a touch of elastic around the top of the cups? I know that would ruche the fabric slightly, but might make you more comfortable wearing it?Victoriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07464542504638518509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2464662522153586853.post-37176004274528080472018-07-19T17:18:09.276+01:002018-07-19T17:18:09.276+01:00What timing!

I just this week decided to scrap my half-finished bombshell (similarly also in blue, but a little brighter) because it was doing terrible things to my butt. It cut through my cheeks about 3/4 of the way down, which was not a good look and also uncomfortable. I'm sure I'd have an instant wedgie the second I sat down on the sand with the kiddos. I'm going to try to salvage the fabric and make a Papercut Patterns Soma two-piece. Hopefully all of that fabric doesn't end up wasted!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00765289493434856103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2464662522153586853.post-40198108805915520892018-07-19T16:13:06.584+01:002018-07-19T16:13:06.584+01:00I have heard that the Jalie swimsuits fit well and...I have heard that the Jalie swimsuits fit well and are very supportive and stay put in the water.
