Pink and red should always be seen together, or whatever the opposite is to the saying about how you should never pair red and pink. I used a pink and red linen from The Fine Cloth Company for this colour-blocked Torrens Box Top and Glebe Pants combo. I haven’t hemmed the top or pants yet…… Continue reading Colourblock Torrens

Cosy PJs!
I generally do try and take photos of the things I’ve made before I bring it into serious rotation, but these PJs have been well worn by the time I’m getting around to taking pics! I actually made this combo in August 2021… so here’s my pics a year late! https://flic.kr/p/2ny4TXt The top is a…… Continue reading Cosy PJs!
Striped Atrax
Am I filling my wardrobe with Atrax? Am I filling my wardrobe with this stripe? Yes. I have a Hyde T-Shirt in this exact fabric and since the Atrax Top uses so little fabric I had enough left to make a matching Atrax and I’ve still got more leftover (maybe a second Atrax where I…… Continue reading Striped Atrax
Ribbed Atrax
The Atrax Top is so speedy, it made sense to whip up quite a few versions, since the longest part of the project is the hemming! https://flic.kr/p/2nvnfBe Not going to lie- this fabric also jumped to the top of my stash when I realised that it was an almost-match for Fifey’s sweater (not me-made). Who…… Continue reading Ribbed Atrax
Atrax Dress
I mashed up the Atrax Dress with the View B cocoon view of the Hexham Dress (plus some length) to make a Leila-inspired minimalist dress from a French Terry from a local Facebook destash group. https://flic.kr/p/2nvKqhN I hate hacking, I’d rather have pattern bonuses or pattern pieces to work from instead of relying on myself…… Continue reading Atrax Dress
Merino Atrax
The Atrax Top is the 28th pattern release from us at Muna and Broad! This super quick sew takes longer to hem than it does to cut it out and sew the 5 seams on the top! We imagined this minimalist top initiallys as elevated workwear which will work in a variety of fabrics, but…… Continue reading Merino Atrax
Glebe and Gusset
I love a quick sew and I especially love a quick sew that I’ve memorised- the Glebe Pants were the first pattern that Leila and I released together and I’ve got the making down to a fine art where I can absolutely watch tv while I go through the pants-making motion. https://flic.kr/p/2nto6uk I cut these…… Continue reading Glebe and Gusset
Improv pieced scraps
I have real scrap guilt, and the 4 large lidded buckets under my A0 printer which are overflowing with scraps will confirm my story. I recently undertook some batch cutting (3 Torrens and 2 Glebe Pants)- my scraps looked quite good together and I didn’t have room in my bins to add these in so…… Continue reading Improv pieced scraps
Double wine Torrens
This past weekend was a long weekend and I entered peak flow and undertook a cutting-out-and-sewing extravaganza! I cut out 2 pairs of Glebe Pants (not pictured) and 3 Torrens Box Tops. I’ve had these 2 wine coloured fabrics in my stash waiting to become a Torrens for a while now, and I figured that…… Continue reading Double wine Torrens
Fat travel unders
I’m still thinking about travel wardrobes after my recent post ‘Fat Travel Planning’, which got an unusual amount of comments! Because there was so many great insights in the comment section, I thought that actually, some wardrobe sections deserved their own blog, so I’m cracking off with undies (not just because the Dulcie Boxer Briefs…… Continue reading Fat travel unders
