I recently experimented with some ice dyeing, and dyed this many-years-old UFO Waikerie Shirt. I’m not sure why I never got around to finishing this shirt, which was white linen from A+R Fabrics! But, I liked the results of the ice dyeing so much that it encouraged me to quickly add buttonholes and make this…… Continue reading Ice dyed Waikerie

Pink Sculthorpe
Muna and Broad’s 3rd Birthday celebration saw a lot of our makes popping up in my feed and gave me a lot of inspiration! I saw a lovely pair of pink Birchgroves (see them here) and it was the inspiration I needed to finally make myself a new pair of Sculthorpe Pants! It’s been a…… Continue reading Pink Sculthorpe
Making multiple Tarlee Tees
This is a great example of a project making its way onto the blog, not necessarily for you, but because I keep coming back to the blog to double check the details of my makes. What size did I make, did I make adjustments? I’ve got no idea, but the blog can remind me about…… Continue reading Making multiple Tarlee Tees
Cargo Glebe & Waikerie
@Ithacamaven’s Top, Down, Centre, Out seems to be the topic of conversation that’s attached to every self-sewn pair of pants on the internet! Recently we got a question about TDCO on the M&B Patreon forum, so I did some additional research and dove in with my Glebe Pants pattern to make some new pants for…… Continue reading Cargo Glebe & Waikerie
High-rent pink Glebe
For my recent weekend trip to Wellington for Camp Boom (a camp for fatties) I took the opportunity to sew myself up a little travel capsule of new makes! I love a deadline and also an excuse to kick myself into making things I’d been planning for ages, but hadn’t necessarily got around to! Capsule…… Continue reading High-rent pink Glebe

Whitlam knit skirt
Pattern number 30 from Leila and me is here: The Whitlam Skirt from Muna and Broad. I didn’t think it could be done but Leila has drafted a knit tube skirt that doesn’t want to crawl up under my belly overhang. Pure magic. https://flic.kr/p/2nYvkqC Clearly the first version of the Whitlam Skirt that I shared…… Continue reading Whitlam knit skirt
Squiggle City
I’ve been sewing up a little storm recently as we prepare to release Muna and Broad’s 30th pattern (not pictured here) and as I put together a small travel capsule for an upcoming weekend in Wellington for Camp Boom (capsule also not pictured here). A gaggle of Atrax I’ve sewn up a little collection of…… Continue reading Squiggle City
M&B PJs
Earlier in the year I partnered with Spotlight to make a pair of PJs and answered some questions about myself for their blog! Muna and Broad is celebrating our 3rd birthday with 5 days of prompts for folks to share their M&B makes on Instagram and today, Unders & Loungewear day, I realised that I…… Continue reading M&B PJs
