Description
This is a PDF sewing pattern and tutorial to teach you how to create these garments. THIS IS NOT A FINISHED GARMENT.
The Busy Bee Swim Bottoms will have your swimsuit drawer full in no time with a variety of looks! You can mix and match with your tops easily depending on your mood or where and who you’re going swimming with! Feeling like you want more coverage- you can grab the high rise and brief options. Feeling like baring it all for less obtrusive tan lanes…go for the cheeky and low rise. And you can pick between to with a mid rise just below the belly button. Mix in some ruching at the side seams for a fun detail. These bottoms are very simple and quick to make with the waistline and leglines hemmed under with swim elastic. You can choose to partially line or fully line.
Options include: low rise, mid rise, high rise, cheeky booty cutline, brief booty cutline, ruched side seams, partially lined or fully lined.
Enjoy several videos throughout the tutorial like adding/removing length, complete sew ups of ruched, plain, partially and fully lined bottoms.
