It's Wacky Wednesday at Ellie & Mac. This week I'm sharing the Vacation Romper with you. The Vacation Romper is not a pattern I would have ever thought to try. After seeing several that were really cute on a few sewists that are similar to my shape, I decided to give it a try.
I noticed that all the ones I liked on others were made with an ITY knit. So that's what I used for mine. It has the perfect drape to keep the Vacation Romper from looking like it's swallowing me.
What I really love is that I can wear a normal bra with it and my straps do not show! This isn't likely something that I will wear a whole lot, but I definitely see myself wearing this often as a swimsuit cover-up this summer.
The Vacation Romper goes together really quick. It's one big pattern piece that you cut 2 of and you have the straps to cut. Hemming the legs is optional and with most knits it looks perfectly fine with a raw hem. The part that took the most time was doing the binding.
Another pattern that I have made that's included in this weeks Wacky Wednesday Sale is the High Hopes Dolman. Here's a photo of me in it. Read my blog post about it HERE.

The Vacation Romper is so comfortable! I took 4" out of the length from the middle of the pattern for my height. I think I could have removed at least 2 or 3 more inches.
