I’ve been obsessed with finding the right fabric to order for this, and now that I see your gorgeous finished projects, I just need to make up my mind! The pictures are so helpful, I couldn’t quite envision a few of the steps from the pattern alone. Some things I just need to do to understand! Lovely suits, I’m so looking forward to making mine!

Thanks, @sewgirl23! I’m glad you’re going to make it, and it’s really good to know that the photos help! Cheers.

Sorry for the delay on this, everyone! A houseful of guests kept me really busy last week:

I definitely think these sew a longs are helpful! Even if people do not make the patterns during the time frame (like me, I made 6360 afterwards) I always look for these when tackling a new pattern. The tips and tricks are so useful!

Hi @Liesl

Just a comment to add to the others here re: the usefulness of the sewalong. I knew I wouldn’t be making the swimsuit until around now for my summer vacation, but I already liked your patterns when they first went on sale, and, honestly, the fact I knew there was a sewalong was a major factor in going ahead and taking the plunge into making swimwear. I’m a beginner – going on advanced beginner and the existence of a sewalong definitely makes a difference to me at least. I’ll make sure to post my cossie when I’ve finished it! 😉
