Sexy Skimpy Sewing Pattern for a binding edge triangle top. This triangle top style is for mini bikinis, posing suits, raves, cosplay, active wear, circus, hoopers, and pole fitness. Sew Skimpy triangle binding edge top runs a bit smaller than other brands. Through the years I have had no complaint from my customers about the smaller size. You could line this tri-top with the same kind of fabric or use a swimwear lining. Sewing Pattern comes in 4 different sizes. One size does not fit most. Let me know if you have any questions?
- Includes sizes XS-L
