The basic bodysuit to decline with the seasons

The bodysuit could also be used as a swimsuit (in particular the long-sleeved, turtleneck version as a sun protective swimsuit). In this case use a specific swimsuit fabric for all parts and keep the crotch opening with the snaps or close this opening by sewing the front and back to the crotch together.

Sewing level: intermediate 

What you will practice with this sewing pattern: how to finish with ribbing or with an elastic bias binding, how to sew lapped shoulders or a shoulder placket.
A video is available in free access on the site including the complete assembly of the bodysuit.

Guidebook precision :

For the stand-up ruffle option of the Malmö bodysuit, the text in step 25 could be confusing. Here is the reworded text so that there is no possible doubt (knowing that the diagram is good): "Pin R/R the stand-up ruffle on the neckline by matching the marks. The stand-up ruffle must end at the fold mark on the front placket and at the shoulder mark on the back placket. Pull on the gathering threads until the stand-up ruffle is the same length as the neckline."

Swimsuit bonus:

A bonus in free access to transform your body into a swimsuit or a sun protective t-shirt.

patterns are difficult to manage. downloads restricted to 5 per pdf

there should be a central place where ALL the patterns I have purchased are kept. instead, I have to go through all my emails to find them.
