I would recommend a medium or heavyweight fabric - you can either do a 100% cotton (easiest to deal with), a heavy ponte, or even the scuba / neoprene fabrics that are now popular. Each should be able to hold structure - good luck!SewPetiteGalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01146296944137057378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1818227597672589935.post-30888463504483050152015-05-07T20:10:02.344-07:002015-05-07T20:10:02.344-07:00Hi, I would like to tailor a structured peplum top...Hi, I would like to tailor a structured peplum top.

It could be a neoprene or a thick knit like a ponte, but it's hard to say for sure without seeing it in person.

Do I hold the "back" and "front" ends of the fabric as the needle runs across it? Let the "catch" (the thing underneath the needle that moves fabric backward) do the work?
