Question
Hi.  I was wondering if there is anyway to write on a bathing suit; maybe using a fabric marker or something like that? Thanks!!!

Answer
Go to a craft and hobby store, like Michaels, and buy some fabric paint. The squeeze-on kind should be fine. But be careful not to stretch the suit out too much when putting it on, or it will "break" the paint lines. Ask the helpers at Michael's what they recommend....I haven't done it myself, so I hate to say "TRY THIS" or "TRY THAT". Bathing suits are tricky.

Good luck!
