Gymnastics leotard for Katerina

This leotard is from the same pattern as Isabella's leotard, Jalie 2792, View A, size 8. Both of the leotards needed the arm elastics removed, though as they were too tight. I ended up replacing the arm elastics with fabric binding cut from the same material as leotards. I also removed the elastic from the neckline and used the fabric binding and whilst Katerina's turned out fine, Isabella's neckline gaps slightly. Next time, I'll leave the neckline elastic.

Swimsuits and gymnastics

The children start swimming lessons this week and of course they have grown since summer. Joshua is okay in his board shorts but the girls needed new suits. The pattern used is Jalie 2317, View A. I made size 8 for Katerina and size 5 for Isabella.



The gymnastics leotard pattern is from Jalie 2792, View A. Isabella is in size 5. The shiny fabric is actually gold sparkle with leopard spots faintly underneath.
