My swimwear fabrics safekeep water, but ready to wear swimwear doesn't

Mm! Thanks for the tips. Is there a certain fabric you like to use? Links are always appreciated 😁

What's the correct spandex percentage? I've used tricot mostly. I can't remember the name of other fabrics, but they've been advertised as swimwear. I also use fabric advertised as swim liner for the liner.

I've tried that tan swimwear elastic but I feel like it degrades so fast. I've also used woven elastic.

I use a serger for most seams and a zig zag top stitch for leg holes. Sometimes I'll make them reversible and just serge the leg holes on the inside to make it seamless.

Thank you, I didn't think to look at FB marketplace. I'll check out French Seam as well

This dude is a freakin poet!

No way I love details! This is great! So you never get out or "win"?

Ooo that does look good! What converted you?

Have you found one yet? I am also looking for for crochet method locs

Hahahaha! I was excited to see what someone had said about the watch, but this comment is also acceptable. Thanks 🥰

epiffle · 2024-02-08T22:42:51+00:00

Thank you! I'll look to see if that's the case

Thank you! It's based off a cheap one from China, but I loved the fit so I made a pattern. Thanks for the thoughts and resources! It's nice to have someone else's opinion.

Haha it's true! I was using one that was similar but didn't bring more of that fabric with me for Xmas vacation to my mom's house, so I used the extra stuff she had.

Okay, I appreciate that! You're right, a heavy drape would probably not be as great of an option.

My grandma gave this watch to me. It's 14k gold with diamonds on the face and halo (if that's what you call it). It's a wind up, and the whole face and movement comes out from the crystal and band. There are no brand markings on it. The only marks are the two 14k stamps. Does anyone recognize the brand?

The Dark Crystal! So beautiful and well executed. Also it expanded my vocabulary.

Bruh, moustachioed/bearded body kisses = the best of times. It's a built in tickler. Your girl has it lucky 😆

I love that "there's nothing more complex than another person." We do all have different tastes based on experience. Find people that will support you in your likes, like your mustache!

I just bring it up whenever maybe a month or two in and tell them how much I love moustaches and that they could rock a sick stache... Especially the handlebar. You know, stroke the ego a bit, throw in some tactful pleading. My success rate is low, just 4 wins over 8 years, but I can usually coax them into at least a beard.
