girls swimsuit size 10 Kwik Sew 2537 fantasie swimwear

girls swimsuit size 10 Pattern Description: This is for a Boys\' or Girls\' Vest and Jacket. They have a front yoke, forward side seams with pockets, stand-up collar and binding from swim wear. I made the Pull-over Jacket. Pattern Sizing: The patterns includes 8-10-12-14 I made a 10 for my daughter. Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yes, I actually like mine better Were the instructions easy to follow? Very Easy, Typical of Kwik Sew. What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I really like the style of the pull-over jacket but I did not like the side pockets or the swimsuit binding. Fabric Used: This was made with fleece that I bought about 2 months ago. The others will be made with the solid color fleece that was just on sale at Jo-Ann\'s for $2.99 a yard Saturday! Pattern Alterations or any design changes you made: As I said, I didn\'t like the pockets so when I was tracing the back, I just took back side seam straight down to the bottom. On the front I again just took the seam straight down. I took the pocket piece from Simplicity 5362 and traced it, I then took an inch out of the middle and turned the piece over and traced it and ended up with a Kangaroo pocket that I liked. When I had the front done I had Kari put it on and asked where she wanted the pocket, that is how I got the placement. I didn\'t like the the sleeve ends to be bound so I just sewed a hem. Again, I didn\'t like the swimsuit binding on the bottom so I put in two small button holes in front, made a casing and used some stretch cord and cord lock for the bottom. Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? Yes and Yes! I will be making 2 more kids jackets, 2 for women (KS2683) and 1 for a man (KS2531) as Christmas gifts Conclusion I\'m really happy with how it turned out and Kari just loves it, wore it to school today. I have fleece for another one for her that is similar, black with bright circles and another solid fuschia. Now to get the other 5 done!
