VIDEO: The Esther Swimsuit (Bodice, Straps, Bra, and Finishing)
🕑 Added 2021-06-02 17:36:01 +0000 UTCHello bathing beauties! Are you ready to dive into swimwear? I know that making your own bathing suit can be a bit of a learning curve (especially when it has as much structure and support as our Esther Swimsuit), so we've made videos on sewing Esther from start to finish, exclusively for patrons.
In this video installment, you’ll learn how and why to underline your bodice with power mesh and how to sew the outer bodice, interior bra, back closures, straps, and more! We’ll also talk about supplies and materials, how to use boning in the Esther swimsuit, and how to get the best bust support.
This is only being released to patrons, and it will hold your hand for the entire process. We've also made a separate video that just shows the bottoms (Panty, Skirt, Bloomer, and Ruched Bottom expansion), so you will understand how to construct every part of this design.
Hope you love the video!
xoxo,
Gertie

I believe they are in the instructions pdf. It is on a side column if I remember correctly.
hello! I stumbled upon the links to the places where Gertie found all the supplies but now I cannot find them at all... Can someone please point me in the direction as to where they are? Ive looked on my download and on the patreon itself and i cant see them anywhere :(
I am so excited to start making this! I am attending a bachelorette party in September and they are all pretty and skinny and blonde.. the complete opposite of me! Plus size with fantastic bright purple and blue hair! Lol and the bride would like us all wearing this slinky tiny black swimsuit that offers no support to my size that has gold lettering Bride Squad on it.. well! My plan is to cut the front panel out of the silly swimsuit on the fold so it still has bride squad on it like an overlay and then the rest will be made out of black fabric with the skirt option! I hope it works and I don't stand out too much in a bad way! Wish me luck!
