The Cosi Swimsuit Tour
I have sewn a few swimsuits in my time, but the new Cosi Swimsuit pattern is most definitely a must have on the list. Not only is the actual construction SO easy and SO fast, but there are multiple options that will give you a ton of different looks. This will be a swimsuit pattern that I use over and over, for sure. The pattern is 15% off now through July 18th with the code COSITOUR15 at Suz’s etsy shop SewPonyVintage. You can also visit her blog to see tons of Cosi Swimsuit inspiration!
(and I apologize in advance, but I have really been enjoying photography lately, so there are some random photographs that I just like)

I actually made 2 versions… not because I am crazy (well, I am, but that is another story ha!) but because Ainsley genuinely needed new swimsuits and we go almost daily to the swim club. I chose the navy blue and yellow fabric on the left and I let her pick the fabric on the right. Either one is cute, but I am partial the the navy.

Both of these fabrics are available at Michael Levine and I adore the thickness and the quality. I have purchased swimsuit fabrics elsewhere and there is just no comparison. I love the polka dot and stripes together. The bow isn’t a part of the pattern, but certainly easy to add!
Probably my most favorite part of this pattern is the vintage feel. The bum coverage is excellent. Little girls still look like little girls.
(we stole our neighbor’s pool for these photos ha!)





This is the “strawberry suit”, and clearly, this is her favorite. I can’t blame her. It is pink and blue and filled with girly-ness. I added a pink chiffon skirt to it and she calls it a ballerina suit. 





By the way, I have been SUPER enjoying my summer and after finishing up a few to-do list items, I am going to enjoy these kids to the fullest. I can’t wait! Time is speeding by.
Make sure you check out all of the other inspiration!
Thanks for having me Suz!
