It's Finished!

Here's my new swimsuit:

Yay! I was so excited to try it on once we got home from church. It fits perfectly and I love it! Now we can't wait to get our pool completely cleaned to swim in. It should be ready sometime this week... My goodness! I can't believe summer is almost here!

(From L to R: Sis #1, Sis #2, Me, and Sis #3)

I just noticed something funny about this picture: I took one very similar to it a few months ago, except their hair was curly and mine was straight... now mine is curly and theirs' is straight! :)

A few months ago my Mom and I found a nice website with modest, feminine swimsuits that you could either buy custom-made or purchase the pattern for yourself. So, a lady from church bought the pattern and offered to make each of us our very own bathing suits. We were so excited!

Last Monday we were able to go to town and visit Hancock's (a fabric store) to choose our own material. We thought we would only have a few limited choices when we got there, but we were pleased to find that we were wrong! Each of us got to choose our own different material, and they are all so pretty.

My sisters' swimsuits are now finished, so I will show you a few pictures:

Sis #1

(The leggings are hard to see in this picture, but they're there!)

Sis #2

Sis #3

(That tie around the waist isn't actually supposed to be there. That's just some of the left-over material, and sis #3 wrapped it around herself!)

Anyway, I thought y'all would enjoy seeing the suits now that they are finished. . . .Mine is coming soon! :)

I know it's getting to be that time of year again. . . swimming in 100 degree weather, getting sweaty outdoors, and a bunch of other fun stuff you get to do during the summer! Well, we just got a nice above-ground pool towards the end of last summer and our family really enjoys swimming. It's something we can do together and it's something we love. And, honestly, living in Texas makes it pretty enticing when you have a nice cold, blue pool of water sitting right outside your dining room windows! We've just struggled with one problem: finding modest and appropriate swimwear! And, I'm sure you might have come across that same issue. It can be disappointing because it makes it pretty difficult to enjoy the sport of swimming. So, my Mom and I were searching online earlier for a place to either purchase or sew your own modest swimsuits, and we found a wonderful website! I was so excited about it that I just had to share!! :) This site has feminine and covering swimwear with patterns you'll just love! You can either purchase the material and patterns for yourself, or you can buy them ready-made and even custom-made. Just log on to: http://www.modest-swimwear.net/. Anyway, we're really looking into that now, with summer just right around the corner! I hope you are blessed by this as much as I was!
