I’m pretty new at sewing and decided I wanted to use this pattern to make a new bikini for an upcoming trip. This is my first time sewing a bathing suit and this pattern taught me several new skills. I found this pattern very approachable and there was only one step that gave me pause (the ruffles). Even being so new and slow, I got this done in under a week, just in time for my trip. I really like this bathing suit and I already have plans to make another.
Hi CJ, thanks for the review! I'm so glad the pattern was approachable and that you learned some new skills while making your bikini. It’s great to hear you finished it just in time for your trip - enjoy wearing it! Virginija x
Shop bought swimsuits which fit well are difficult for me to find. I have hips, a relatively small waist, small back and boobs!! I’ve managed to grade this to a perfect fit using the useful information in the pattern. I love it!!
Soooo many Coralie's, AMAZING! Than you fr sharing Lynn x
Using rubber elastic was a game changer! Easy to follow instructions.
Thank you x
I'm really excited to get this pattern. It has got so many options and the sewing tutorial that you can purchase as well has some great hacking ideas. Now if only I had more time......
Yay Penny, for diving in with the Coralie pattern. It's a suprisingly quick make I'm sure by the end of the week you'll have made one for every day of the week. Happy Stitching x
