Summer Swimwear Tour – Classic Maillot Testers

I’m in love with testers.  They do so much work helping to make each pattern the best it can be, and the Classic Maillot testers deserve a shout out.  So since it’s Summer Swimwear Tour week and the tour post teasers are posted on The Wolf and the Tree this morning, I thought it was the perfect time to share all the lovely swimwear they made.

Just look at all those amazing swimsuits!  If you like what you see you can purchase the Classic Maillot here with 20% off using the code SWIMTOUR this week.  I’m seriously so proud of how everyone’s swimwear turned out so let’s take a closer look:

First up is Karly of Paisley Roots.  She’s amazing with swimwear so there’s no shock that her first pretest of the view A swimsuit was perfect.

Creations by Maggie made a few view A swimsuits and view E tankinis (more from her coming later this week too!) and her girl is just adorable!

Kate from Kate Will Knit‘s girl was a star for the photo shoot in her view C maillot since they’re in the Southern Hemisphere and it was COLD!

Essence from Adventures with Bubba and Bug made a lovely tankini view F for her girl.

Felicia’s view A turned out great and I love that shade of yellow on her girl.

Gina from Penny Sew Vintage also made a few versions, but I just ADORE this view E/view G mashup one she posted.

Lisa from Sewing Life Together has a perfect fabric pairing with this view B in polka dots and flamingos.

Here’s another view B with a great fabric combo, this one on Anita’s girl.

Shannon‘s girl loves her view D maillot!

Katie’s girl looks so great in this view E tankini and she was one of the first “older” versions to finish so I was very excited to see the fit on her.

And speaking of the higher end of the sizing, how stunning does this view E look on Tone from Bless by Tone‘s girl?  It’s so good in this solid color.

This was Marie-Eve‘s muslin of view A and I just had to share.  What a great wearable muslin!

And last but certainly not least is Zoe from Soul Fed on a Thread‘s view D.  This is Zoe’s first time sewing swimwear AND she says her girl is super thin so fitting can be a problem.  This maillot fits her to a T and we couldn’t be more thrilled with her first time success!!

There’s so much more to come this week on the tour.  Join in on the Summer Swimwear Tour fun by using the hashtag #sewswimtour to share your favorite swimwear makes.  And don’t forget to enter to win these fabulous prizes from our other sponsors!

Once again this baby surprised us. Yesterday morni Once again this baby surprised us. Yesterday morning she just started counting to ten on her own ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜† She was star struck watching herself on the camera so she didnโ€™t go past five here, but in person she rolls right past ten and tries for 11 and 12 ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜
You guys, this girl is having a real hair moment. You guys, this girl is having a real hair moment. After waiting literal years for her hair to grow in, itโ€™s now turned into an 80โ€™s rocker look with how spikey it all is on top and the extra length in back๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜† 
But we LOVE this Journal Jumpsuit from @jennuinedesign and she LOVES wearing it to jump on the couch. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Sheโ€™s a real talker these days so I had to use the Story Teller cut file, also from the Lounge Library collection.  Check out @projectrunandplay for the details on the sale on this pattern this week only!
Fabric is a lush French terry from @knitfabricdotcom and the contrast is a solid from @wolfandrabbitfabrics

Have you seen the mini season of @projectrunandpla Have you seen the mini season of @projectrunandplay details yet?  Iโ€™m super excited about everyone sharing more of the Project Lounge Library collection and the freebies weโ€™re offering!  First up is this perfectly sized book tote from @jennuinedesign. My girl LOVED the one I made from the second she saw it Christmas morning!  The cut file design is also from the collection as well as her nightgown ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜
Thereโ€™s a whole Percy Jackson collection inside there along with three other (heavy) books, so itโ€™s a nice sturdy tote that holds plenty!

I read lots of different genres, including a few oldie juvenile favorites to preview for or read alongside my daughter. ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ’•
Some were book club reads and some were suggestions from Instagram friends, but I really enjoyed them all. Of course the new Louise Penny was my favorite ๐Ÿ˜

I've always loved making. At an early age I started cross stitching and sewing and I taught myself to knit and crochet during college. When our seven year old daughter Bean was born I was filled with all sorts of inspiration, so now I find ways to manage my crafty time and treasure those moments. Though sewing is what I'm most passionate about these days, there's something about the portability of yarn crafts and embroidery that keeps drawing me back in.
