Huon Dress in Sister Mintaka

//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js The Huon Shirt & Dress is the latest release from Leila and I through Muna and Broad- we’ve been talking about this one and going back and forth for quite some time so it’s great to finally have it out in the world! Sandeep from Sister Mintaka let us both choose fabric for our…… Continue reading Huon Dress in Sister Mintaka

Waikerie Dress View C

It’s still winter down here in New Zealand, but I braved the chilly weather to take some socially distanced photos! This is View C of the Waikerie Dress from Muna and Broad with the collar added and long sleeves. Size details: Size F is my usual size in Muna and Broad Patterns (was previously called…… Continue reading Waikerie Dress View C

Trapeze Dress from Merchant & Mills

I tested the sizes 20 – 28 size range of the Merchant & Mills Trapeze Dress in their Woolsey Boston Fall linen/wool double gauze, which Merchant & Mills kindly sent my way along with a digital copy of the pattern for the purpose of the review. Their extended size range goes up to a 55″…… Continue reading Trapeze Dress from Merchant & Mills

Boxy Barkcloth Torrens Box Dress

There’s a very popular dress and jacket pattern that’s not available for fat-makers and I decided today on a whim that I’d like to make something very similar for myself, but using a pattern that is available in my size. So here’s part 2 of my Torrens Box Dress exploration, using the Muna and Broad…… Continue reading Boxy Barkcloth Torrens Box Dress

Adrianna Dress Toile, Friday Pattern

I’ve used my ‘sewing in isolation’ time to work through the backlog of printed-but-unmade PDF patterns in my stash, which includes toiling this Adrianna Dress pattern from Friday Pattern Co in some rayon fabric that I bought on super sale, and which I now consider to be extremely ugly (but I can’t remember if I…… Continue reading Adrianna Dress Toile, Friday Pattern

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

Stylearc Eme Dress in Tencel

Stylearc’s Eme Dress is touted as the roundneck sister dress to their popular Adeline Dress (which I’ve made so many versions of)! Stylearc sent me a copy of the Eme multi-size printed pattern, but quite ironically I thought I’d sew a straight size 22 and I don’t think I’ll bother grading for my (inevitable) next…… Continue reading Stylearc Eme Dress in Tencel

Rushcutter Dress in denim

This denim Rushcutter dress from In The Folds is one of the first dresses that I made. There were so many amazing versions of this on the internet, but in order to fully recreate I probably should do a FBA, but there’s so many bits to adjust that I probably never will. Originally, I couldn’t…… Continue reading Rushcutter Dress in denim

Rivermont Dress in Chorizo

I got this glorious ponte from Tessuti in Australia. I got a sample of this and a delicious chartreuse and eventually decided that this colour was perhaps more practical. In reality, I wish I’d bought both. Cashmerette’s Rivermont Dress & Peplum pattern is probably a t’n’t pattern at this point, and it’s so comfortable to…… Continue reading Rivermont Dress in Chorizo
