Description
This is a PDF sewing pattern and tutorial to teach you how to create these garments. YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE ANYTHING IN THE MAIL.
The 24/7 Tank was given it’s name by a tester sewist who said, “I wear this style 24/7”. It was perfect! This style makes a great pajama top, workout top, and everyday top too… I live in them year round. They’re a great top in the summer, especially that built in bra option is heavenly in super hot weather! During cooler months they make a perfect base for layering with cardigans, flannels, etc. You can make a great tank that covers most everyday bras with the perfect length, necklines (both front and back), and binding style to fit your personal preference. The perfect fitted tank is finally here and will be a wardrobe staple in your closet.
With just a different fabric choice you can create a totally different top. Pick up an athletic knit and use that shelf bra with powermesh and cups, add in clear elastic into the thin binding and you have the perfect long line sports bra. Switch out the athletic knit for swim knit and use swim elastic… you’ve got yourself an adorable tankini swim top. Make it comfortable in a soft modal fabric and make the shelf bra in just something soft with no powermesh or cups and you have the perfect sleep tank. Leave the shelf bra out completely and use an everyday knit… you have the perfect tank for summer or for layering under in cooler months.
Choose from options: high front neckline, low front neckline (adult only), high back neckline , low back neckline, racerback neckline, thin binding (can add elastic for sports bra or swimsuit), thick binding, crop length, top length (adult only), shirt length and shelf bra with removable cups and powermesh (youth sizes 2-14 and adult).
Worried about sewing up the binding on the 24.7 Tank? DON’T! We have helpful videos linked for that single step in the tutorial! You can even preview the video here to see what it is like to sew the binding if you’ve never done this finishing method before: 24/7 Tank Youtube Playlist
