The pattern features one pattern piece with some clever darts to give it shape. It was quick to cut out and sew. It can be made in two lengths although beware. It flies in the breeze and if not wearing your swimmers you might just flash someone.
This came together very quickly, the instructions were easy to follow.
I love this and have already worn it a few times. I don't know about you, but getting organised to go to the beach can take a while (especially when the kids want to take their Sit-on-top Kayaks) This allows me to put something on over my bathers quickly without having to worry about getting changed or finding a change room. I'm thinking one for Miss 10 in a towelling material might be a good idea.
Pattern: Simplicity 1100 (Super Jiffy)
Fabric: Lycra Stretch from Spotlight - 3.2m at $21
(purchased during 40% fabric sale)
Size: xs
Changes for next time:
- Sew it in the fabric suggested.
- It is a little loose at the back. Not sure if this is due to the material used or if I need to take a little off when cutting it out next time.
