Leotards 2016

My daughter had stopped doing gymnastics at this point I think, but was trampolining instead. Every girl always wants more leotards though, and nice ones cost a fortune. I figured I could probably manage!! And since I had an overlocker it would be rude not to try. This pattern and the fabric were bought from Nortex Mill Fabric shop.

It feels quite stressful, but relatively easy!! I know that sounds contradictory. The fabric stretches terribly while cutting out, but sewing with the overlocker was okay. Just used a normal machine to zigzag the hemmed areas. I made some more shorts after this, and intended to make more, but didn’t get round to it. I was pretty pleased with the pattern placement in the middle at the front on this one though.
