As a child who professes her dislike of anything she deems ‘jazzy’ and who is constantly encouraging me to tone down my ideas and enthusiasm, a long-sleeved leotard in electric blue with gold zigzag down the front was not what I was expecting. H was delighted at the suggestion and set about drawing a design which took me by surprise. For H, a child with a non-average build, custom making one seemed to be the only way of ensuring a good fit. First I must confess that this is a project I could never have imagined having any interest in, especially as I’m still finding my way with knit fabrics, but, having watched a gym performance at school recently, the importance of a well fitting leotard was clear.
