Recommended Uses
- One-piece swimsuits
- Bikinis
- Swim tops
- Swim bottoms
- Bathing suits
- Swimwear lining
- Stretch garments requiring a lightweight lining
Why Use Swimsuit Lining?
Adding a lining to your handmade swimwear can provide additional coverage and create a cleaner interior finish. A stretch lining is particularly important for swimwear because it allows the lining to move with the outer fabric without restricting the garment's stretch.
Sewing Recommendations
For best results, use a stretch or ballpoint needle and a stretch-compatible stitch or serger. Avoid stretching the fabric while sewing to help maintain its original shape.
Care Instructions
Hand wash in cold water. Dry flat.
We recommend pre-washing your fabric the same way you intend to wash your finished garment.

Swimsuit Lining Fabric FAQ
What fabric is used to line swimsuits?
A lightweight 4-way stretch lining is commonly used to line swimsuits and bikinis. The lining should stretch with the main swimwear fabric so it does not restrict the fit or movement of the finished garment.
Do I need to line a swimsuit?
Not every swimsuit needs to be fully lined, but adding a swimsuit lining can provide additional coverage and create a cleaner interior finish. Some sewing patterns call for full lining, while others require lining only in specific areas.
Can I use this fabric to line a bikini?
Yes. This 4-way stretch swimsuit lining can be used for bikini tops, bikini bottoms, one-piece swimsuits and other swimwear projects.
What is the difference between swimsuit fabric and swimsuit lining?
Swimsuit fabric is generally used as the outer fabric of the garment, while swimsuit lining is worn underneath it. A stretch lining provides an additional layer of coverage while allowing the finished swimsuit to retain its stretch and flexibility.

How much swimsuit lining do I need?
The amount of lining required depends on the style, size and whether the swimsuit is fully or partially lined. Always check the fabric requirements included with your sewing pattern before ordering.

We’ve recently updated our shipping options to give you more flexibility and competitive rates. At checkout, you can now choose from multiple carriers — including Canada Post, ICS Courrier, Canpar, Purolator, FedEx, UPS, and more.
Shipping fees are automatically calculated based on the weight of your order, with several delivery options and prices available.
If a carrier does not service your address, we may need to use an alternative option, which could incur additional charges, particularly for P.O. box addresses.
For remote or rural areas where delivery costs are higher, additional fees may apply. In these cases, we will provide proof of the shipping costs to ensure transparency.

Please note that our system provides an estimated shipping cost at checkout, which may not always reflect the actual shipping charges.
In cases of oversized orders, shipments to rural or remote areas, or delivery to P.O. boxes, the final shipping cost may differ. If this occurs, we will contact you directly with the updated shipping cost, which will be the responsibility of the customer.

Customers agree to pay any duties, taxes, fees, or charges required by the destination country in order for customs to release the package.

We strive for excellence in our products and customer service, but some imperfections may occur with fabric.
Please note that stains, holes, or blemishes within 3 inches (10 cm) of the edge are considered acceptable.

Stains on the inside of the fabric are also acceptable if they do not appear on the right side.
Please be aware that fabric may shrink after the first wash, so we recommend purchasing slightly more than the exact length required for your project.
