Here’s a pair of medium-weight linen/viscose Sculthorpe Pants which Leila and I released recently through Muna and Broad I’m wearing size 1 in these pants and I’m wearing them with a Torrens Box Top.

Viscose Tweed Sculthorpe Pants
These are the new Sculthorpe Pants that Leila and I have released through Muna and Broad! We’ve been testing out a few different narrow leg pants options because we know that not everyone loves wide-leg pants! Size details: I make a size 1 in the Muna and Broad sizing (which is meant for a 54″…… Continue reading Viscose Tweed Sculthorpe Pants
Gingham Torrens Box Top
I made this Torrens Box Top in cosy ‘Savvy Gingham’ from Miss Maude. The fibre content is 88% Cotton, 7% Linen, 5% Wool and it’s a delight. I thought I could squeeze a long-sleeve version out of this fabric, but was foiled due the narrow width of this fabric. It was great to sew and…… Continue reading Gingham Torrens Box Top
Plus-size Kabuki Tee from Paper Theory
I’ve had the extended sizes of the Kabuki Tee from Paper Theory printed out for ages now, and it’s been in the back of my mind that I ought to find some lovely linen for this for ages now. A couple of weeks ago I tried to find some examples of plus-size bodies in the…… Continue reading Plus-size Kabuki Tee from Paper Theory
Ashton top tropical toile
The Ashton top from Helen’s Closet has been out for a while now and I finally caved and purchased the pattern as a possible replacement for the Cashmerette Springfield Top, which fits great, but is a bit too fitted for my tastes (I want something boxier). The Ashton is available up to a “size 30″…… Continue reading Ashton top tropical toile
Torrens Box Top adventures
We recently launched some bonus long-sleeve pieces to accompany the Torrens Box Top pattern from Muna and Broad. Since our summer hasn’t been particularly warm, I went a little sewing-crazy adding new sleeves of various kinds to my wardrobe! Rather than post about all of them, I thought that a round-up post might be in…… Continue reading Torrens Box Top adventures
Torrens Box Dress Hack
I’d been dreaming of my own comfortable box dress in the style of Elizabeth Suzann’s Georgia Dress in silk, and I knew this fabric would be gorgeous to wear and would drape well. I have an entire pinterest board of sack dresses where the vast majority look exactly like the Georgia dress and I think…… Continue reading Torrens Box Dress Hack
Torrens Box Top with Sleeves
We’ve been working to extend the sizing and also add some long-sleeve options for the Torrens Box Top pattern that we’ve released under Muna and Broad! This is my second test of the narrow-sleeve extension, and I’m so pleased that I’ve now got the woven drop-shouldered long-sleeve top pattern that I’ve been looking for! This…… Continue reading Torrens Box Top with Sleeves

Summer Peppermint Wrap Skirt
I’d been thinking about buying some of this Australian floral printed fabric of Ellie Whittaker’s from Spotlight’s upholstery fabric section to make this free wrap skirt from Peppermint Magazine for ages! When Spotlight had a sale, I didn’t hesitate to snap it up. But then it sat in my stash for a while and then…… Continue reading Summer Peppermint Wrap Skirt
