Sewing Tutorial: Add bra cups to the shelf lining of a swimsuit

After having nursed my daughter for nearly 2 years, I find that I need a lot of… ahem… support in a bathing suit to keep the girls somewhere in the northern hemisphere. Unfortunately, it can be difficult to find a suit that offers that support. Kate from See Kate Sew shares a solution on her blog, showing how to sew a pair of bra cups into the shelf lining of a bathing suit. Thank you, Kate, from me and the girls!! Get the tute.
