From Peppermint Magazine, Issue 50:
Feel the power of the puff with our bold new blouse pattern, the Peppermint Paddington Top, ready to add to your ‘to sew’ pile – and your new closet staple for adventures aplenty!
We worked with South African pattern maker Sarah Steenkamp of French Navy Patterns to create everybody’s new favourite wardrobe essential – the perfect puff-sleeve blouse. Simple enough for everyday wear, it’s got just enough flair to bring the drama, mama. Raglan-cut sleeves make it the ultimate beginner sew, plus the gorgeous back buttons let you add your own personal twist. Tuck it in, wear it out and get ready for your shirt game to come out on top.
Recommended Fabrics: This pattern is suitable for light to medium weight woven fabric with or without drape. Firmer fabrics like linen, chambray and cotton shirting will result in a more dramatic and structured silhouette while drapier fabrics like rayon (and rayon blends), tencel and cupro will yield a softer, less voluminous shape.
