Swimsuits and Skirts

So today (drum roll please!) I finished my skirt. I actually finished something. I will get some photos of me in it sometime soon, probably at the seaside when I go next week. But here is the zip, and here are the pleats when I joined them to the waistband.

Unfortunately, there is no rest for the wicked, and I have one day to sew a bikini. Admittedly, there isn't much to sew, but I don't know the fabric well as I've never sewn it before. I also have no ideas whatsoever (again, not much to work with, but it still needs thinking about!) and so I am really hoping I will have a brilliant epiphany over night.

Stressed,

Toni

So I Heard it Was Swimsuit Season

When did this happen? Last time I checked it was all cold and damp outside! I'm going on holiday at the weekend and I don't have a swimsuit...I have the fabric, but I have never sewn it before, nor have I ever drafted swimwear. I go on holiday on Friday. I have my work cut out. Or not cut out, as the situation is currently. How am I going to sew a cosy in three days?!
