I've had a few friends tell me to join the network and I hadn't gotten around to it. Mostly, I was afraid. I thought I shouldn't join if I didn't have a tail. Now of course, I feel silly about it since there were SO many tips in various forums about making one, which REALLY could have helped me, so I guess I live and learn.

Anyhow, I'm Rhea, very new to the community and surprised to see so many people invested in it. I only own one tail, fabric, made by myself. I believe the monofin is a Finis, but I could be wrong. I'm a trail and error kind of person and I honestly have little sewing experience, but this was a long awaited dream of mine. I'm hoping I can learn more here and meet new people!

Hi and welcome! :D

Looks like a Finis Wave/rapid. the holographic pattern on your fabric is so cool!

Welcome to the network! And greetings from New Jersey! :)

Your tail looks great and it does look like a Finis Rapid...are you going to the Coney Island Mermaid Parade next month?

Thank you! Still has a bit of work to be done. As for next month, I should be. I've missed it year after year, so hopefully I'll be able to go.
