Hi All!!

This week I’m mixing it up and having a GIVEAWAY!! YAY Don’t you love that extra Sunday in July!

I love giveaways 🙂 and sharing with all of you lovelies! I wanted to do a giveaway a few weeks back – but I was interrupted by the Canada Post possible lock out *sigh*

But it’s all clear now!! And I’m soooo happy to announce that my Emerald Studio Etsy shop is OPEN during the 30-day Canada Post negotiations (let’s hope they come to a good agreement after these 30 days!)

Now for the giveaway!!- I was thinking about which fabric and kit I should pick to give away and then I realized that I wanted to hear more about your dream swimsuit and swimwear kits! And I want you to be able to pick out the perfect kit for you!!

So this is how it works:

First you can pick one of my ‘Basics Kits’: which is the series I designed to make swimwear sewing easier- they include everything you need for different types of swimwear! All of your lining, elastic, G-hooks, and bra stuff for bra-swimsuits!

The Basics Options Are:

 

 

 

 

Then you pick the fabric that you want to go with your kit!
You can pick up to 1 meter of fabric, either 1 solid meter, or 1/2 a meter each of two coordinating fabrics! And I’ve just replenished my shop with some gorgeous options!

 

 

As usual, you can be anyone from anywhere to enter the giveaway!

To enter the giveaway all you have to do is leave a comment telling me:
Which basics kit you would pick
 Which swimwear print is your favourite
&
What you would make with it
And of course, make sure I have your name and some way to contact you in case you win 😛

Also, you know it wouldn’t hurt if you followed me on any of my social medias either.. you know… might be nice… 😉

You have until next Saturday at noon EST to enter, and I will be announcing the winner at the start of the Round-Up post next week!

I can’t wait to hear all your favourites and thoughts for swimwear- it’s my fav!

    The ultimate kit, with the classic black and white fabric! I need a full bra to hold everything in place when spandex is involved. 🙂 I'd self draft a two piece suit, which has been sliding down my to do list forever. Abby Pond (@ponddrop on twitter, @queenofcupslingerie on Instagram)

    Oooohh Erin! This is such an amazing giveaway!
    I'd like ultimate kit and it's a toss up between the holographic mermaid and the chic blues and purple. Those are my top 2 from your options.
    I really want to make the new Closet Case Files Sophie swimsuit, but Patterns for Pirates Siren/ sailor one piece hack or Seamstress Erin's Nautilus Swimsuit are also on my wishlist.

    I love that you are a Canadian sewist and making fabrics and findings available online. I have been following your blog from the beginning and find it inspirational.

    I would use the ultimate kit in order to create a lot of support. I would use it with nautical rope. I would create a swim/bra top, and then use remnants of the fabric as trim on matching swim short bottoms and also a long-sleeve rashguard. This 3 piece mix and match swim wardrobe would then be perfect for a day of paddling, hanging at the lake, swimming with my kids.

    Keep up the great work!

    So many great options. For me the smartest option would be the bra swimsuit kit with the beautiful purple and blue tropical print. I'm thinking the swim pattern from pattern for pirates. Good luck to everyone! 🙂 Leora1205@gmail.com

    I have been eying your swimwear fabric for a while! I would use the one piece kit and the blue and green leaf print to make a Nautilus swimsuit. I tested that pattern last summer and love the design, but the torso is about an inch to short on me. I have been meaning to make another, and it would be lovely in that print!

    The ultimate kit with the new black and white flourish print. Hard to pick as you have so many beautiful prints available now! I really want to try the Ohhh Lulu Abigail suit modified to have an underwired bra built in for additional support. I'm excited to sew a one piece suit since RTW ones never fit me.

    What a great giveaway! We're still in the heart of winter, but I'm looking forward to the hot weather. I've never had a swimsuit that is supportive enough, so I would love to make my own.

    I like the idea of the Ultimate Kit, as I am never able to find an underwire bra swim suit top in my size! I would chose the black and neon coral solids to color block a suit with a retro bottom. I have favorited your shop so that I can sew a suit for next summer, when I am no longer pregnant. Thanks for giveaway!

    I have been eyeing your mermaid fabric for another sophie suit. (I've been waiting for you to reopen!) I will be taking my 2 year old to swim lessons In the fall, so I think a periwinkle blackbird/black made with a backstrap like Sue @ A Colourful Canvas – that would require the ultimate kit, I'm sure. Thanks Erin

    I would have to go with the bra swimsuit pack and I am torn between paisley mosaic and black and white flourish, in the end decision for half and half of Black and white flourish and plain black. I would make a self drafted costume along the lines of your body suits, using denise swimsuit as a started and putting in a foam bra top. I would colour block the patterned fabric in the middle and on the cups with black on the sides. I think it will be amazing 🙂

    I would love the bra kit and first row #3. I want to make a swimsuit that fits, I'm a big girl and have a hard time getting a good fit for large bust and small bottom. Plus I want to make bras and underwear in color and print. Big girls like more than black, white and beige. I want to make custom bras for full size women with out it costing $100 just because you don't fit the average size. I'm small in the band 36, 38, but large cup h,j hard to find and sales people try to give you something that is almost the same. Not true, I can't wear a 40 band I fall out the bottom or a 4d cup. And so many speciality stores are closing so hair to find my size. So I really need to learn how to make what I need.

    I'd have to find a pattern for a suit with a bit of a skirt but it would be lovely to finally have straps that stay put on my narrow, sloping shoulders! I'm excited to learn to make bras & swimsuits that will really fit me. Even if I have to purchase additional fabric your Bra Swimsuit (Ultimate) kit with Super Chic Blues & Purples fabric would be an excellent starting point! graycm@bellsouth.net – thanks for the opportunity.

    I would do the one piece, with the Paisley Mosaic fabric. I would make this suit to wear in my water aerobics class. I will pick a size smaller than I am right now in order to reward myself for my first loss of 25 pounds. I am a pear shape, and I need to lose weight so that I can have surgery to get out of a wheelchair. And what a gift! Purples, Paisleys, and I did it myself!

    My birthday gift from my parents is a plane ticket to Hawaii to visit them in a few months (I live in New Zealand, so it's a halfway point as I haven't seen them in almost a year)… but I have no swimsuit I trust to the waves! I'd pick the turquoise and yellow floral print with a bit of solid black for accents, and make a self-drafted bustier-style top and some strappy bikini bottoms with the bra swimsuit kit!

    That's a great idea for a giveaway!! I'd pick the ultimate kit, because I've been wanting to replicate my favourite swimsuit of all times! It consists of a longline bra (with foam) and striped bikini bottoms, and I love its slightly vintage look 🙂 For the fabric, I'd pick the Classic Black & White Printed Swimwear Fabric for the top, and maybe some solid black fabric for the bottoms. I'm not really a prints person, but I really like the abstract appeal of this black & white print! 😉

    Fantastic giveaway, Erin!! I would have to pick the 2 piece bikini kit I think – I'm trying to perfect my ideal bikini at the moment 🙂 And I think it would be the tropical pink fabric for me – I loved the swimsuit you made with that so much. I'm very into high leg briefs at the moment, so I think the bottoms would be along those lines with possibly a halterneck crop top style top, either that or an off the shoulder cropped T shirt style top 🙂

With the basic black, you could even throw some shorts or a skirt on and hit the boardwalk! Sounds pretty nice right about now…

    Thank you, Erin for this giveaway! I cannot find a one piece suit in my size – I am bigger on the top and need underwire type. I like the idea of the Ultimate Kit.

If I ever find something like "Coco Palm Swimsuit by Bravissimo", I would dare! My name is Iryna – birynav09 at yahoo

    Well…. I would pick the bra kit as I bought one many years ago and it was such a terrific fit and so supportive for my tiny frame with big top. I just love the green and pink anchors.

    I would pick the ultimate kit. I love the support a full bra gives to a one piece. I would use the blue/black/white flowerprint since I love florals! The patterns I have made once before is the Bravo Swim #1 pattern by Bravo Bella. I find that a princess seam one piece looks best on me.

    I would use the black flourish print, with accents and bottoms in solid black, and the bra/ultimate kit to make a bikini. Maybe a boned tankini top with corset lacing, or maybe I would experiment with wide vintagey halter straps? I just made my first swimsuit from my self-drafted bra pattern, and I'm already hooked with the design possibilities!

    I would choose the 2 piece kit, I have 3 children and sadly my bikini bosy left me a long time ago lol I would turn it into a tankini for myself 😀

    i would go with the anchor print fabric because it is fun and I don't carry floral prints very well.

    I have never ever made a swimsuit or underwear and would love a kit to get me started. The bra swimsuit kit would be perfect and won't the holographic mermaid be perfect for a swimsuit?!! I'd love to draft a swimsuit covering my thighs in a mermaidesque way..
    Just keep swimming!

    Thank you so much for such a lovely giveaway! I'd be so happy to grab the ultimate swimsuit kit, and I just adore the mermaid print spandex!! I've been sketching a few ideas for swimwear, though I haven't drafted anything just yet – I'm thinking a vintage silhouette bikini, but with some fun cut outs to make it a bit more modern!

    I love a supportive swimsuit so the bra swimsuit kit for me. I like the classic black and white print, with which i would make the pin up girls tankini and black Jalie swim shorts

      Oh yes and I'd make a tankini and swim shorts. Really want a tankini this summer. Maybe draft it out of a swimsuit pattern I already own 🙂

    I would love the basic one piece kit with the tropical pink floral and the black fabric. This would make a beautiful one piece swimsuit

    I would do the one piece kit with the pink to purple ombre! It is soooo unique! But that was a hard choice because I liked a LOT of your fabric!!! I would make a tankini. And I LOVED the one you made your mom. So I would probably go that route – possibly putting a little bit of opening in the back of the skirt part of the top…. 🙂 just to be unique.

    I have never made swimwear but would love to try and make the 3 sisters bikini Rebecca from Pin-Up girls. I belive that the ultimate basics kit and Super Chic Blues & Purples Printed Swimwear Fabric would be just perfect! 🙂

    So fun! This would be a great push to get me to try sewing swimwear! I've been eyeing the Sophie swimsuits, so I'd do the ultimate kit and make a 2 piece foam cup suit in the blue green leaf print! The kits are such a great idea!!

    Oh my heavens, dream come true — I would definitely try out making a Sophie swimsuit with the underwire kit and the black and white flourish print! So awesome!

    I would pick the bra swimsuit so I can have the necessary support for my “DD” boobs! I would pick the pink to purple ombre material; I think it would go very well with my mocha complexion. I would use pattern McCall 6759 (OOP) 2 pieces, items “A”,”E” and “F”. Portion “A” would be the front and back top with boob support. I would cut out side panels and replace with strips of material, portion “E” and “F” would be my bottoms portion. I would shave off 3 inches on each side so I can do strips also. So that it looks like a 1 piece but is really a 2 piece. I would use the fabric so that the purple is the bottom ombre to pink for the top half. SewConspicuous

    Bra Swimsuit Basic kit with Light Pink to Purple Ombre Swimwear Fabric. I am in dire need of a swim suit and the ones in the stores – if I can even find any now – are super expensive. I am disabled and need to go to the YMCA pool for therapy so I need a suit. If I don't win, and I am not the lucky type who would, I think I may just have to purchase what I need to make my suit.

    Such a great giveaway Erin! I'd choose the Bra Swimsuit Basic Kit and the pink & white gingham swimwear fabric. I'd sew those choice up into a 2 piece suit with high-waist bottoms and an underwired top. ginnyATtidepoolDOTcom

    ooooooh this is such a gorgeous giveaway!

    I would take the Bra Swimsuit kit, I'm so desperate for a new set… I can never find anything that matches. Either the top doesn't fit/ no support or the bottoms are too tight or give an unflattering shape. For the fabrics I'd choose the mermaid print for the top (can't resist that glittery shimmery goodness <3 😀 ) and plain black for the bottom so it's a bit more versatile, although I'd totally rock the whole mermaid look.

    I would select the bra swimsuit kit together with the black and white floral/leaf print. I would try to adapt the Rebecca bra pattern for a bikini. If that fails there es the option of the Jalie racerback with contrasting black fabric. Julia

    I'd love the ultimate kits with this fabric: Classic Black & White Printed Swimwear Fabric
    I'd make a tank top with bra, and shorts bottom for extra coverage of those untidy areas.
