 Today's sunset in Oceanside was ridiculous.

first swimsuit

This is my first swimsuit that I designed. I was excited that it turned out! My good old zig-zag stitch on my Elna did the trick. The material is from JOANNS. Yep, JOANNS. 

one of mine

 I designed this dress awhile back but showed pictures of it in poor lighting. For awhile I didn't like the way it turned out, but it grew on me. I will probably do another with different fabric/colors/slightly different design.
