Wednesday my mom and I went to the secondhand store (I had asked G-d that the nessecary garments would be there and cheap,including the leotard) and they were! I am so excited and I can't wait to wear it at the beach next month. Thank you.<BR/> Sincerely<BR/> Emmuna(faith in hebrew)<BR/>p.s- visit my blog-http://allgloriouswithin-emmuna.blogspot.com/<BR/>I will be posting about the swimsuit and i will mention your blog.Katherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09783512067759587136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1278139998273750963.post-10152793944469383432008-07-12T19:29:00.000-07:002008-07-12T19:29:00.000-07:00What a wonderful idea!

They are much more normal--and thus hopefully are less attention-drawing than--suits like those here: http://www.wholesomewear.com/page-4.html .

I have a one piece swimming suit that I've had the last six years or so which has a built in skirt, but it still is mini skirt length, and whenever I went to the pool or lake/pond I wore a lightweight wrap skirt with it. I like your idea better, since you don't have to worry about skirts floating up around you when you are in the water! :) <BR/><BR/>SarahSarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06713535191616985475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1278139998273750963.post-79215254697842731592008-07-07T18:59:00.000-07:002008-07-07T18:59:00.000-07:00I saw your sister's yesterday, and I think y'all l...I saw your sister's yesterday, and I think y'all look so cute!

I made a regular T-shirt pattern for the top but lengthened it, and made a pair of tighter leggings (mid-calf length) with a knee length skirt sewn on top, with an elastic waist.<BR/>I really like it...but it is still a bit clingy when wet. But wet is what swimming is all about!! :)<BR/>Julia in OklahomaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1278139998273750963.post-48396099131034093182008-07-07T12:04:00.000-07:002008-07-07T12:04:00.000-07:00What a wonderful idea!

The looks you'd get if you went to a swimming pool would be interesting!Jerushahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03754561090808671231noreply@blogger.com
