The shape of the top resembles two cowrie shells I think) is a bikini pattern with two style options for the top and a French cut bottom with medium coverage and two waist rise options. View A, the flat front top, is finished with fold over elastic (FOE) and has a G-hook closure in the back. You can choose either mid- or high rise bottoms for both views. View B, the tie front top, is self faced and this construction is commonly called “seamless”, meaning you don’t see the seams and the lining and main fabric is the same.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYou will learn:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e✿ How to sew swimwear on your regular sewing machine, no serger necessary.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e✿ Two ways of finishing edges on a bikini\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDETAILS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSkill level:\u003c\/strong\u003e  Intermediate\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA0 copy shop files\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrint-at-home files\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProjector files\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Sewing instructions with clear illustrations for each step\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSizing:\u003c\/strong\u003e A-L (Bust 30\"-60\").

You will find a stretch guide on your pattern pieces. If using a knit fabric with not enough stretch, you might want to size up. The stretch in the fabric will also effect how the bindings sit, not enough stretch and they won’t lay flat against your body. A typical “t-shirt” fabric is usually 100% cotton and will not stretch enough or have enough recovery (how fast it bounces back when you stretch it). You will need fabric with some elastane\/spandex in it. Try one of these; bamboo jersey, rayon jersey,  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003emodal jersey, cotton mix jersey or rib knits.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUse:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e © 2020 Paradise Patterns.

In my twenties I came to Hawai'i, fell in love with a local surfer, and now we are raising our three boys on the island of O'ahu. I feel incredibly blessed to call this amazing place home!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI started my pattern making\/technical design career in 2016 in Honolulu, working for small, local brands. After a few years I fell pregnant with my first son, and decided I wanted to freelance when I became a mother. My job now is so fun and multi-faceted. I still work with a lot of local brands, and I even get to pattern and grade for a lot of people that I met through Instagram, in addition to running my own little pattern design studio, Paradise Patterns. I love having one foot in the clothing manufacturing business as well as the home sewing community!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThank you so much for stopping by, and please feel free to email me with any questions!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003exx, Sanna\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT PDF PATTERNS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePDF patterns are a digital product that will be delivered to your e-mail address after purchase.
