Jaffa's Modest One Piece Fish Suit

[Mermaid Jaffa]

I started on a one piece swimsuit with dorsal fin yesterday... Am nearly finished. Just got two more steps to go... Sew in bra cups and elastic to all the openings. Bear in mind too, it is my first time making a swimsuit, so if you are an expert, just ignore the uneveness! I'm pretty sure once I do the rest, no one is going to notice its slightly crooked!:$

Sneak peak! Sorry its a bit dark, I wanted to show it off!:cool:

Finished! Well 3 days ago... With sewn in bra cups, lining on both sides and a small dorsal fin on the back. It is a modest boy leg cut at the legs with wide shoulder straps. It was going to be a cross back but I couldn't figure out how to sew in the elastic. Paranoid me, double stitched the side seams along the body and crotch...:$
Test swim on Thursday. Just in case, I'll be bringing a spare swimsuit!:lol:

Good news! It didn't fall apart during my swim! And there was no accidental flashings nor did I have to worry about what's showing when I got out of the warm pool.
