This Willandra Pants and Waikerie Shirt combos is one of my favourite (and most worn) outfit combinations. Muna and Broad is celebrating a Willandra Pants this week as it seemed like a perfect time to revisit this pattern, which we unfortunately released right in the middle of lockdown- just at the time where nobody was…… Continue reading Waikerie and Willandra plums

Huon Shirt in Sister Mintaka
The Huon Shirt and Dress is the latest pattern release from Leila and I through Muna and Broad.I’ve wanted a gathered shirt like this for the longest time but could never find the right pattern, and if I found something close then it was inevitably never in my size! This top was inspired by French…… Continue reading Huon Shirt in Sister Mintaka
Mustard Nullarbor Cami
The Nullarbor Cami and Dress is a pattern that I pestered Leila for for the longest time, because I knew it was a basic which was missing from the fat sewing pattern back catalogue. I knew because folks often emailed me to ask for recommendations and there weren’t many. There certainly weren’t many that were…… Continue reading Mustard Nullarbor Cami

The Banksia Bralette and Tank
I’m a little late to the party to talk about the new Banksia Bralette pattern, released by Leila and I through Muna and Broad, mostly because I do have reservations about sharing pictures on the internet of myself in a bralette (funny where we draw the line isn’t it?)! While I was procrastinating on sharing…… Continue reading The Banksia Bralette and Tank

The Curvy Sewing Collective has lots of posts about capsule wardrobes, but the…… Continue reading Sculthorpe Capsule Wardrobe
3×3 collection from Muna and Broad
The 3×3 wardrobe capsule is something that I first read about on the Curvy Sewing Collective here. The idea is that by mapping out tops, bottoms and layers in a grid (like below), you can find combinations which work together. I’ve been experimenting with capsule wardrobes as a way to avoid wardrobe orphans (garments that…… Continue reading 3×3 collection from Muna and Broad
Liberty print Waikerie Shirt
//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js I bought this liberty print cotton on a bit of a whim shopping in person at The Fabric Store here in Christchurch. It was pretty unusual for a liberty print, and a bit more large-scale/abstract than usual.I bought this fabric intending to turn it in to a Waikerie Shirt (from Muna and Broad). This…… Continue reading Liberty print Waikerie Shirt
Muna and Broad Capsule Wardrobe
I’ve been experimenting with testing out the mix-and-match possibilities of the current Muna and Broad pattern offerings. A few years before I got in to sewing I tried to coordinate myself a black and white capsule wardrobe of nicer, work-appropriate clothes (I know now that neither black or white are great colours for me ).…… Continue reading Muna and Broad Capsule Wardrobe
