see I was trying to make my own bathingsuit one day, but it just fell apart... what fabric did you use and did you use a machine?

i used a lycra (usual bathing suit material)
and i did use a machine, however, if you are doing this, figure out the tension on the fabric beforehand or you can end up with a mess. some machines handle very stretchy fabrics differently. also, make sure you use a zig-zag stich, so it stretches along with the fabric.

I wish I could do that Razz

Looks good. My mom says it's a nightmare to make bathing suits because of the material... though I really want to try because it'll probably do me better than to buy a really expensive one -- and, usually, nothing really fits me. ><

Thats cool, the closest I ever came to making anything were these huge purple fleece pants I had to make for Home Ec. I threw them out, lol.
