Judy Kski said... You look fabulous in your new swimsuit! Thanks for all the time you spent writing an incredibly detailed review. I loved all the insight you provided on the entire process. I, for one, will be referring back to it as I work on incprving my swimsuit sewing skills. Good luck in the contest! 3/30/12 10:20 PM
tsedai said... Looks great! Thanks for such an excellent review! 3/30/12 10:52 PM
BeckyC said... Your suit looks wonderful on you! I love the ruched neckline trim and the way you incorporated the print fabric by adding princess seams - what a great idea and very slimming to have the solid black on the sides. What a great project to utilize all of your machines. Thanks for the detailed review! 3/30/12 11:14 PM

RobbieK said... I have this pattern! I've used it, but my swimsuit didn't look as good as yours, wait maybe it's the body it was on ;) I love what you've done and you've inspired me to make another. 3/31/12 8:09 AM
Teeavilnor said... Thank you so much your wonderful review on adding bra cups your suit is A+ 3/31/12 8:27 AM
JEF said... 1. You look fantastic in this suit. 2. Your review is wonderful - thank you so much for all the detailed info and photos. 3. I think the ruching a very stylish detail. 4. I have a black cat who looks just like yours (there is a certain similarity to black cats, isn't there?) who helps out in the exact same way!!! 3/31/12 8:48 AM
Bonnie O said... YOU LOOK GREAT! I love the fabric combo. Congrats on the weight loss. 3/31/12 9:39 AM
AuntieShel said... You are absolutely stunning in your suit!!! We should all be so lucky to look like that at 45 after 4 kids!! Absolutely LOVE the black and green combo. Am thinking I should try making a suit out of bathing suit fabric, yours is so inspiring! 3/31/12 7:07 PM
QuiltSewSewSue said... Thanks for the demo on sewing the cups in - very good information! Great suit and cute kitty! 4/1/12 0:17 AM

KHinson said... What a beautiful suit and great fit. I don't think I could pull it off with a regular sewing machine. 4/4/12 9:36 AM
cindysewsaz said... Absolutely awesome! (Both the review and the suit!) Thanks for the detailed review! 4/4/12 11:54 AM
sew4real said... Great review! Your suite look professionally done. I am inspired to try my hand at making a swim suite. I like your kitty cats, mine do the same thing! 4/7/12 8:58 AM

CSM--Carla said... Fabulous job!! Congratulations! Thanks so much for the excellent tut on the bra lining! 5/1/12 11:58 AM
Lynn67 said... Just wanted to say thanks for all the pics of the bra cups - I was directed here by a fellow PR'er since my bra cups didn't work out for a halter I'm making. I've learned a lot from your pics (like cutting out the inside lining - where did I think my little boobs would go?). Awesome bathing suit, too, BTW! 6/4/12 6:31 PM
Jrhee said... I somehow missed this review the first time around! AMAZING swimsuit and technique. I see that you used an elasticator foot - I'm currently using it on my 3rd swimsuit, and while very convenient, I can't get it to feed smoothly over seams. I'll play around with it some more, I suppose. 7/16/12 1:54 PM
