BTW, when you say "It will save you many tears!!" - is that tears(crying) or tears(ripping)? or both?

Thank you! I want a vintage suit so bad but Ive got big boobies, a big butt and a tiny waistline so I could never find one that would fit me correctly. Now I can make my own!

REALLY love this! My mom makes competition bathing suits for a living so I'm going to try to steal some of her pretty spandex... Most definitely trying to make it this summer!

i will try this way of making a pattern, i need to make 8 '20s-style bathing outfits for an amateur circus. like the black-and-white-striped unitards with the little pants. any advice on adding short legs? what about for a man? i have one piece to copy that i haven't seen yet, so hopefully having that will be helpful.

scooby snacks, yeah it's water...useable. haha, technically I think the fabric is supposed to be for gymnastics or something, but it's all just spandex anyways ;)

Starchild, I used a pattern I made for this leotard I wore a while back.
It was quite difficult, XD
