Pattern Description: Misses' swimsuits have a shelf bra lining with elastic, a lined crotch, all outside edges are finished with elastic and they can be made with regular or high cut leg openings. The View A tank style has a low cut back. View B has a racing style back.

Pattern Sizing:XS-S-M-L-XL

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?Yes it does

Were the instructions easy to follow?I have made this pattern many times before I did not use the directions, but when I did use them they are extremely easy.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?Nothing to dislike.

Fabric Used:87% nylon, 13% spandex. Moleskin Matte & Lining 100% Polyester Both are 4-way stretch from Spandex World.

Pattern Alterations or any design changes you made:I did not make the shelf bra or the crotch lining. I lined the entire suit cutting out lining and suit at the same time. I did view B in small, regular leg opening not highcut, and added 3/8" to the leg opening, also added 3/8" to neckline. And used the elastic length from the XS sizing. I made this for my daughter who is on swim team for practice at school. These suites get used a lot and just after a few weeks the RTW suites are worn though.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?I have and will this is my second and I am making 2 more.

Conclusion: A simple very comfortable inexpensive suit to make. Any way you choose to make it.
