This one fits Zoe wonderfully in size 122, without any adjustment. This pattern has a crossover front option, which I may make for the next one. The first thing she did when I had her try it on before I hemmed the bottom was complain that I put long sleeves on it. I told her that since it’s the end of August, she should expect that her clothes will have long sleeves for a while. Lettuce edged, her favorite. Her sleeves look to be about a half inch too long, but she’s growing like a weed, so I doubt that will last too long.

This is labeled in my filing as Kwik Sew, because I believe the Sew-Knit-N-Stretch line was a precursor to the Kwik Sew line. This gem is (c) 1968, when little girls still wore swimsuits that covered their bodies. Size 6, no adjustments.

I actually made this back in July, but the pics were still on the camera card when I was pulling off more recent pictures today, so you get to view it now.

I made this in size 122, with 13 5/8″ of 1/4″ elastic in the legs. If there are actually markings for the placement of the straps, I have no idea where they are.

Zoe is just in this size, so I’m hoping it will fit her for a while. This suit has good coverage. The only thing I’m not crazy about are the tie straps. Well, that and I don’t like the fabric print, but we always make a tester when it comes to swimsuits.

After some complaining that I should put the training wheels back on her bike, Zoe has mastered riding a two-wheeler. I’m so proud of her!
