Honeydew Kisses Patterns: Ocotillo Skirted Leo & Playsuit

Sew. All. The. Swim!

Soooo, I recently got bitten by the "Swim" bug and have completely dove in.

If you are looking for a versatile pattern that could take you from dance, to the pool, and to the playground, the Ocotillo Skirted Leo & Playsuit by Honeydew Kisses Patterns delivers it in one neat little pattern.

This pattern is PACKED with options --

Leo - One Piece, Two Piece or Skirted

Skirt - Skirted Booty Length, Skirted Thigh Length or Gathered Tulle

Back - Racerback or Scoop Back (with or without bow)

Sleeves - Sleeveless, Flutter, Short, 3/4, Long

Lining - Fully Lined, Partially Lined or Unlined

Sizing - 6/12m - Girls 12

I chose to sew a Two Piece, Sleeveless Scoop Back with Tie for my youngest's newest swimsuit who thinks my latest obsession is the best thing ever.

We practically live at the pool all summer so having a swimsuit that fits her properly is a must. This stayed put the entire time she was swimming.

While I own a coverstitch, I haven't quite mastered the settings for swim elastic on it. No worries though, because it's easy to sew completely on a regular sewing machine.

She's feeling the pool vibes in her new pineapple swim fabric from Peek-A-Boo Fabric Shop (just know once you look, you will not be able to resist .... there, I warned you 😜)
