Listing for all 5 patterns - 'PDF download instructions/pattern piece' - upon payment patterns will be available for immediate download through Etsy - listing all five pictured in composite, the super micro purple metallic is not included

If you have basic sewing skills these patterns are perfect for you, you will have a nice finished timeless piece of swimwear in a short amount of time – all you need is some 4 way stretch spandex material and a regular sewing machine that has zig-zag stitching (no serger is needed).

Pictures show the finished Bikini top modeled on our mannequin, and should give you an idea of how much coverage it provides.

The PDF download "patterns" are not 'actual' pattern pieces - they are an illustration template, a guide basically, of the shape and measurements to create a pattern of your own, as well we share our method of construction with some pictures and helpful hints.

We used many different sewing/assembly methods, the pictures may or may not be representative of instructions included, these simple patterns are fully customizable based on your needs and sewing skills.

If you have any specific questions please don't hesitate to contact us we'd be happy to help where we can.

In most cases around a 1/4 yard of 4 way stretch spandex is all you need to make an entire bikini (top and bottom).

Thank you for looking, have a blessed day and happy sewing!!!!

NOTES on SIZING:
There really is no specific sizing, you choose the top style you want to use based on the coverage you're comfortable with relating to your cup size or level of modesty. The bottom string that goes around the body (under the bust) is cut from full width of the spandex fabric and generous enough per instructions to fit XS to 3X size, if you are smaller you can cut some off.

Previous Questions/Answers:
QUESTION: What are the sizes of the patterns, I don’t see any listed?
ANSWER: The tops will cover from XS to 4X, I made the various triangles depending on the modesty level of the wearer and size of cup they need, the band that goes around the bottom of the triangle and around the body is cut from full width of 4 way stretch spandex which is 54" or 60”, that can be adjusted to most size tops from very small to plus sizes.

QUESTION: What are the different style triangles for, different sizes?
ANSWER: There are 5 different triangles as you can see from the pictures, all five are similar but different in final measurement when you cut your pattern, they go from wide and tall for larger cup sizes to skimpy for smaller chests or those girls that prefer to show more - the band around the bottom should finish at 54" or 60” and with 4 way stretch spandex that would stretch about an additional 10-20% when worn and the top strings are generous so you can cut them to any length or just knot them and let the wearer cut them off if too long.

QUESTION: Can I print the pattern pieces to actual size?
ANSWER: As you open each pattern, the measurements are listed for each different “style”, the full coverage usually covers a C cup and beyond and the minimal would cover A cup and beyond. The larger triangles would not fit on a standard piece of printer paper so I drew the shape and listed measurements so the seamstress could re-create the pattern piece on Kraft paper. It’s a very simple pattern and a very simple process, so no you can’t print the pattern pieces from the PDF but it’s very easy to re-create them on your own pattern paper.
