Stitch Upon A Time Just released the Mary Peplum pattern, and it is fabulous! The pattern comes with sizes XXS-4X, 5 sleeve options, 4 peplum options, and 2 neckline finishes. My favorite is the half sleeve with the high/low peplum, and a banded neckline.
I had never worn, nor made, a peplum top before, so I was not sure if I was going to like it or not. Then I put it on and fell in love. The style is extremely flattering! Especially if you like to hide a squishy belly and big butt!
The peplum begins just above the natural waist, adding a lovely flare right where you want it. Several mamas have said they love this top for baby wearing, because it covers up where the carrier straps like to make lumps appear.
I used a double brushed poly from So Sew English Fabrics for this top. OMG so soft! It also drapes the perfect amount for this top, without appearing clingy. This print had been calling to me for a long time, but I couldn't figure out what to make with it. Now I want it in all colors to make a Mary Peplum in each! I love love LOVE it!
I had to mash a few sizes in order to get my perfect fit, and this was the first time I ever did that! Life. Changing. No more, "it fits great except... " Nope! Not for me! A little extra work with the pattern before cutting is so worth it. A few pictures to take and I will be getting a post up about how you can do it too. Seriously worth it!
Make sure you stop by and grab your copy of the Mary Peplum! It is on sale, 35% off, until 4/10!!
