Michelle Blouse from Schnittchen
I’ve had the Michelle Blouse from Schnittchen printed out for ages, but now that NZ is in lockdown and it’s not possible to print anything, I was finally spurred me on to testing it out (also because I hate buttonholes but love shirts)! The Schnittchen plus-size patterns up to EU 56 or 53.54″ (136cm) bust…… Continue reading Michelle Blouse from Schnittchen

Flat-front wool Glebe Pants
I didn’t bother to brush my hair or tidy my lounge for these pictures- I figured that it was more important to take the photos than to wait for the perfect pictures! This is my first time making the pleated-front Glebe Pants that Leila and I released over at Muna and Broad! I’m using these…… Continue reading Flat-front wool Glebe 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
