Black and white swimsuit for Eva - 3/2016 #27

I wanted to do a more fancy swimsuit for Eva after the 1st attempt. I used the same patern from Ottobre 3/2016 #27 - size 92 just a few more changes:
   We been down with stomach flu this last few days, both kids and me so so project didn't turned up as sharp as I wanted. It is still cute and I did quite a lot of experimenting with it. I tried to line it in a thin mesh so it will hide all the blocking and skirt seams.
   I used decorated elastic for shoulder straps and seam finishing.
   I added a new block to the front and then skipped the side seams on the black portion having just back and skirt seams.
   I tried to add 2 rows of ruffles as the skirt.
   Somehow I am not really pleased with it even if it is cute. I will need to do more.
