Marina Tankini Sewing Pattern by Jalie

Craft the ultimate combination of style, comfort, and coverage with the MARINA Tankini sewing pattern. This timeless design features a chic V-neck top with a clever, built-in shelf bra tailored to hold swim cups for light support. Perfectly balanced by fully lined, high-waist briefs that sit right at the navel, this pattern offers a classic silhouette with just the right amount of flattering coverage. Highly inclusive, it contains a comprehensive range of 34 sizes, ensuring a perfect fit for kids, teens, and adults up to size 2X.

For the best results, select a high-quality main swimwear fabric (such as nylon-spandex or polyester-spandex) boasting at least 50% 4-way stretch. Complete your creation using a dedicated swimwear lining with a similar stretch profile to your main fabric, along with a supportive stretch mesh—like Powernet or Power Mesh—featuring slightly less elasticity to structurally reinforce the built-in bra.
