Okay, so I’ve been wanting to try this whole “making my own swimsuit” thing for a while. I saw this really cute red fabric at the store, and I just knew I had to grab it. It was, like, the perfect shade of bright, cherry red. I’m not gonna lie, I was a little nervous, but excited at the same time.

Best Red Swimming Suits: Our Top Picks,(Review best price online)

Getting Started

First things first, I needed a pattern. I spent, no joke, hours looking online, comparing different styles. Finally, I found one that was simple enough for a beginner (aka, me!) but still had a nice shape. I printed it out, taped all the pieces together – it looked like a giant puzzle, honestly.

  • Gathering supplies: Red fabric (obviously!), matching thread, elastic, swimsuit lining (important!), scissors, pins, a sewing machine (thank goodness my mom had one), and the printed pattern.

The Cutting and Pinning

Next up, the scary part: cutting the fabric. I laid everything out on my living room floor, double-checked the pattern instructions (about a million times), and started cutting. The fabric was kind of slippery, so I had to go slow and be super careful. Pinning all the pieces together was another adventure. I poked myself, like, a dozen times, but eventually, I got it all figured out.

Sewing It All Together

Sewing the swimsuit was surprisingly…fun? I mean, it wasn’t perfect. There were a few moments where I had to rip out some seams and start over, but seeing it all come together was so satisfying. The elastic was a bit tricky to work with, I watched several youtube for instructions.I had to stretch it as I sewed, which felt kind of weird at first. But, hey, it worked!

The Final Result!

And…it’s done! I tried it on, and it actually fit! I’m not gonna say it’s perfect – there are definitely a few wonky seams – but I made it myself, and that’s pretty cool. It’s a bright red, simple swimsuit, and I’m actually kind of proud of it. I even wore it to the pool. I can’t wait to show it off all summer. Time to start planning my next sewing project…maybe a matching beach cover-up?
