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 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

Silk Noil Eme top hack
Recently the lovely Michelle from Matchpoint Fabric celebrated a birthday by having a sale and it was all the excuse I needed to order myself some of her silk noil fabric that I hadn’t been able to find closer to home!

Cashmerette Montrose: Picnic Edition
I’m amassing a collection of hacked Cashmerette Montrose Tops for workwear since I can now easily cut-out and sew one of these in about half a day. I’ve added neckline facings, which cuts down enormously on the time (I find bias binding to be a huge bummer). This Cotton Herringbone from The Fabric Store was…… Continue reading Cashmerette Montrose: Picnic Edition
