One project down, 341 to go!

I modified a charity shop bikini -yes I know buying charity shop swimwear might not be to everyone's taste but then buy new sweatshop items make me feel as queasy! It was indecently small, so using strips of a t-shirt and very light interfacing I made a 5cm wide band to add as ties to the bottom ad top. I basically overlocked the edges, turned them inside out and pressed the shit out of them. I then sewed them onto the bikini using a plain old straight stitch, making sure to stretch the bikini before pinning onto the straps.
