Yikes! Swimsuits

 

 Swimsuits! 

6" x 7"   March 17, 2023
paper piecing, couched cord, machine quilting
in response to Project Quilting 14.6:  Conquer a Fear



This is a tongue-in-cheek response to my, and most women's, fear of trying on swimsuits in preparation for warm weather.  

I found an online pieced swimsuit pattern, on the list of free patterns from Moda.  It was traditional piecing, which I translated to foundation piecing because I prefer it.  I also have a challenge from my Stitch Lab at Gotham Quilts to create something using couching, so I made it look like these swimsuits were hanging on a clothesline. 

Thanks to Kim and Trish at Project Quilting for a fun season of challenges!
