You'll be rocking this summer with this stylish bikini! Ruffles on the top and a simple bottom. Besides saving money the process is very easy! Simple steps and so little of sewing! 

Step 1: You Will Need.

1. Fabric: Lycra.
2. Chalk.
3. Sewing Machine
4. Scissors.


I'm sure you're wondering: "That will not fit my bust" or "How can I make the top for my size?"

Well... Everything has a solution :) 

First of all you can add more fabric to give a lot more support, straps would help too.


Step 2: First Step

Let's make the Top.

Picture #1: Measure the length of the front of the bust and cut. This will be the front of the bikini.

Picture #2 and Picture #3: See the line on the Picture? Sew that part.

Picture #4: For this part, you can use a chalk to draw the lines you see on the picture. The shape is almost like a perfect triangle. You need two pieces of triangle.

Picture #5 and Picture #6: See how put the pieces and unite with the other ruffle fabric, pin it, then sew it together.

Picture #7: Tight on the middle with a strap of fabric.

Picture #8: Will look like this :)

Step 3: Second Step

For the bottom.

Picture #9: With the help of a underwear or a old bikini that fits you well, mark on the fabric the pattern.


Picture #10 and Picture #11: Will look like you see on the picture, then cut the fabric.


Picture #12 and Picture #13: Now do the hem, on the edges and sew.


Picture #14: And that's it! You have now your own bikini! :)
