  • Lacey Thong Pattern from Fehrtrade.Com
    Lacey Thong Pattern from fehrtrade.com This is a pattern for thong-style underwear with lace over the hips and triangular seaming front and back with contrast body and separate, lined crotch piece. Waist and leg edges are elasticated. Sizes: Size Recommended for Finished width of band (at half-hip) Small Burda 32-34 (Big Four 6-8) 74.4cm (29 1/4") Medium Burda 36-38 (Big Four 10-12) 82.2cm (32 3/8") Large Burda 40-42 (Big Four 14-16) 90.2cm (35 1/2") Extra Large Burda 44-46 (Big Four 18-20) 98.4cm (38 3/4") Note that this pattern requires stretch lace - it is drafted with negative ease! If you want to try this with rigid lace, you should add a few inches to the side seams of the Lace pieces and check the fit before stitching. 1/4" seam allowances are included except on the lace scallop edges where noted. Supplies: • 0.5-1m (1/2-1 yard) Stretch lace with at least one scalloped edge (It must be at least 10.5cm (4") wide for XL size, but if you're buying double-edged lace, a 22cm (8 1/2") width will allow you to use both edges and buy less lace. If in doubt, bring your pieces along to the store.) The lace should have at least 50% stretch along the direction of the scalloped edge. • Scraps of fabric (less than fat quarter) for the body of panty - can be jersey or woven - a good excuse to dig through your stash! • Scrap of natural fibre fabric for crotch lining (can be jersey or soft woven, like flannel) • 1.5m (2 yards) of 1/4" picot- or satin-edged, plush back lingerie elastic Online lingerie supplies can be found at: Corsetmaking.co.uk, eLingeria.de, SewSassy.com, Danglez.nl, Kantje-boord.info, lijfgoed.nl, BraMakersSupply.com or BoobyTraps.com.au Pattern assembly instructions: 1.

  • DPR Swim Attire Requirements All Persons on the Pool Deck, And/Or Swimming in the Pool, Are Required to Wear Proper Swim Attire
    DPR Swim Attire Requirements All persons on the pool deck, and/or swimming in the pool, are required to wear proper swim attire. All swimwear bottoms must have a liner. All swimwear must be clean. All infants/toddlers that require diapers must wear swimmers diapers and proper swimwear. ALLOWED: Clean cotton t-shirts and sarongs. Patrons on the deck MUST have on proper swim attire under these items. NOT ALLOWED: Brazil/French-cut, thong style and/or revealing swim wear is prohibited. “Street clothes”, cut-off jeans, jeans, skirts, shorts, sport bras, leotards, leggings, dri-fit wear, compression shorts and compression shirts. Underwear and undergarments are not allowed to be worn under swimsuits. Why do I have to wear proper swimwear? 1. Street clothes (especially cotton) can transport airborne and ultimately water borne contaminants into the pool. 2. Lycra and Nylon are the best non-absorbent material for swimming and are the best fabrics for proper swim attire. a. Other absorbent materials (such as cotton) can break down in the water and cause fibers to clog filters. b. Any “colored” material (unless specifically made for swimming) can bleed into the pool, effecting water chemistry and balance. This is also a reason for turbidity in pools. 3. Cotton and similar materials can absorb the chemicals in the water, causing the water to become less effective at maintaining the proper chemical balance or may cloud the water.

  • Strategic Analysis of a Small Retail Business
    APPROVAL Name: Michele Buttle Degree: Master of Business Administration Title of Project: Strategic Analysis Of A Small Retail Business Supervisory Committee: Senior Supervisor Ed Bukszar, Associate Professor Second Reader Michael Parent, Associate Professor Date Approved: ABSTRACT This paper is a strategic analysis of a small silk underwear and sleepwear business. It has been prepared to provide the owner insight into the many factors affecting the industry and her firm's business performance. The analysis is designed to answer two key questions: Should the business continue to operate, and if so how? Could the business be sold? The analysis revealed that, in its current financial state, the company is not an attractive purchase target. Instead, the owner must take immediate steps to achieve, sustain and improve profitability in order to minimize the amount of external financing required and to avoid a distress sale. A niche differentiation strategy combined with a strategic focus on a reduced set of business opportunities is recommended. In addition, sound accounting and financial management practices are required in order to establish an attractive financial track record. DEDICATION To my husband (Michael), my daughter (Charlotte) and extended family for their support and encouragement throughout the MBA program and the writing of this paper. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank the owner of the business for her candour and support of this project. I would also like to thank Professor Ed Bukszar for the advice, guidance and interest he provided throughout this project, Professor Alain Duncan for the assistance he provided in restating the firm's financial statements and Professor Michael Parent who acted as my second reader.
