The first Rosanna I made was with this Ocean Stripe swim knit from Zenith & Quasar fabric.
This swim knit is great and only $4 a yard! The stripes are navy and aqua and I loved playing with them going in different directions.
I made the half circle skirt, peplum length on all the Rosanna's that I made. What I really love is the low scoop back that allows you to add straps - if you want to.
I needed to make some adjustments to the pattern based on my height, and made another one.
This one is also made with fabric from Zenith & Quasar. I used Diatoms on Athletic Brushed Poly and Purple Supplex. This one will be for casual wear this summer.
I love that the Rosanna has princess seams. The side panels are great for adding a bit of solid color with my print. The Rosanna also has the option for a built in shelf bra - which I added to all the ones I made.
I made one more during testing in more Zenith & Quasar Fabric and some Made Whimsy Fabric.
This one is made with a geometric pattern Yoga Swim Spandex (YSS) from Zenith & Quasar and Fuchsia Nylon Spandex Swim from Made Whimsy.
Since this print was geometric with all these triangles, I decided to make triangles with my straps. I think it turned out really cool!
I had so much fun making the Rosanna and playing around with making cool designs with my straps. I've already made another Rosanna - not pictured here as I modified it to have a higher back. I will definitely be making a few more of these for the hot Texas summer. They are also going to be great to take on my cruise in a few months.
