Here's another free PDF sewing pattern for women. This is a pattern for tie front gathered peplum top for women's bust sizes 30, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, and 44 (that is, sizes XS to XXL).
The sleeves are puff sleeves with fullness at the sleeve cap and at the hemline. Sleeve length is up to the elbow.
*Please note: In the sleeve pattern in the PDF, the sleeve front is on your right side, and the sleeve back is on your left.
How to Print and Assemble the PDF Pattern Pages:
This is the measurement chart I used to create this pattern. Please select your pattern size according to your bust size.
Seam allowances:
Seam allowances are included in the pattern.
Top's bodice part:
1/2 inch for the neck line, armhole, and the center front
1 inch for the sides
Sleeve:
1/2 inch for the sleeve cap
1 inch for the sides
3/4 inch at the hemline
Top's peplum part:
For the peplum part of the top, you will need a rectangular piece of fabric with width (i.e. height of the peplum) that is equal to your waist to hip measurement (you can decrease the height as per your preference) and length that is 1.5 or 2 times (according to where you want to have the seams and how much fullness you prefer) the bottom round measurement of your stitched bodice. You will create gathers on the top of this rectangular piece to make its length equal to the bottom round measurement of your stitched bodice and then sew them together on the wrong side.
Here's a diagram to help you with this:
Seam allowances for the peplum part of the top:
1/2 inch for the top of the rectangle
1/2 inch for the bottom hemline of the rectangle
1/2 inch on each of the width sides to attach the bias tape at the center front (if you want the peplum to be open at the center front.) (But you can keep the center front closed as well.)
(or)
if you want the peplum to be closed at the center front, leave a 1/2-inch seam allowance on each of the width sides (i.e., the shorter edges) and join at the center front.
(or)
If you want the seams to be on the sides, then cut the rectangular piece vertically into two pieces, add 1 inch seam allowances on all the four width sides (i.e., the shorter edges). Join these two rectangular pieces together on both sides, gather them at the top, and pin it to the bottom round of the bodice, making sure you match the side seams of the bodice and peplum and sew them together on the wrong side.
