Here are 5 essential tips for sewing swimwear elastic! 🩱✂️

Tip 1: Use cotton swimwear elastic (it has rubber in it). Pure rubber elastic is harder to sew! 🧵
Tip 2: Use clips instead of pins. Clips don’t poke holes! 📎
Tip 3: Use a stretch stitch, like a wide zigzag or a Triple-step zigzag. 🚀
Tip 4:Use stretch needles. They work better than jersey needles. 🪡
Tip 5: Use wooly nylon thread. It’s soft against your skin! 💫
