Sewing a Vintage Swim Suit | 1940's Swim Wear
Sewing a vintage swim suit doesn't have to be hard! In this video, I will be showing you how I made a 1940's inspired swim suit, using a commercial pattern and woven fabrics!
In this video, I will be sharing:
* How I altered the pattern to fit me better
* Pattern matched the stripes (the best I could)
* Adding extra details like piping
* Created a swim suit top that's as supportive as a bra!
Watch to the end to hear my final thoughts on the fit, and don't forget to check out the blog post for additional details on the construction process.
