Free pattern: Rainbow Pieced Peplum for little girls

Shauna from Shwin & Shwin designed this peplum top for her daughter around a beautiful striped fabric. The colorful stripes were screaming to be pieced. The peplum is long enough to make it a tunic length top. She shares the pattern with her readers. Her free pattern is for a girls size 5/6. If you need another size, you could probably make your own using a bodice pattern that fits your child and using her pattern as a guide for the shapes you need.
