A+R Linen Tarawi
I’ve been on a Tarawi Shirt-making tear over the last wee while, which I suppose is to be expected when you’re preparing a shirt pattern for release into the world! My latest version uses the 3″/8cm check linen from A+R Fabrics in Australia. I was planning a colour-blocked version because I didn’t think I had…… Continue reading A+R Linen Tarawi
Check Tarawi
This week, the Tarawi Shirt is 15% off as part of our pre-order. This is another View A of the new Tarawi Shirt pattern, and one that I had whipped up as a toile from this brushed cotton which I got on sale. It was so snuggly that I had to turn this toile into…… Continue reading Check Tarawi

The size chart spans…… Continue reading Tarawi Shirt
Voluminous Mocha Waikerie
https://flic.kr/p/2macroK I’ve been on a bit of a Waikerie Shirt making kick recently (actually, I’ve been pretty prolific in general since I made my 2 Medlow Robes (silk and waffle), my new 3-piece outfit (see here and here), a pink Waikerie Shirt and this voluminous mocha Waikerie Shirt (I used the View B, with no…… Continue reading Voluminous Mocha Waikerie

In the case of The Fine Cloth Company, I found their website before it was live and signed up…… Continue reading Pale Peach Waikerie Hack
Waikerie and Willandra plums
This Willandra Pants and Waikerie Shirt combos is one of my favourite (and most worn) outfit combinations. Muna and Broad is celebrating a Willandra Pants this week as it seemed like a perfect time to revisit this pattern, which we unfortunately released right in the middle of lockdown- just at the time where nobody was…… Continue reading Waikerie and Willandra plums
Huon Shirt in Sister Mintaka
The Huon Shirt and Dress is the latest pattern release from Leila and I through Muna and Broad.I’ve wanted a gathered shirt like this for the longest time but could never find the right pattern, and if I found something close then it was inevitably never in my size! This top was inspired by French…… Continue reading Huon Shirt in Sister Mintaka
Silk Noil Waikerie Shirt
The latest pattern from Muna and Broad is the Waikerie Shirt pattern, and this here is the collarless variation (View C) with short sleeves.I’ve avoided buttonholes for pretty much the whole time I’ve been sewing (all my pants have elastic), even though I love shirts, and finding shirts that fit both my bust and my…… Continue reading Silk Noil Waikerie Shirt
Waikerie Shirt Test
I gave the automatic button hole on my very basic Brother sewing machine just one more go, and finally managed to end up with something consistent enough to risk trying on actual clothes! I finally put buttons on 3 shirts that were otherwise fully made, that were part of my testing for a forthcoming Muna…… Continue reading Waikerie Shirt Test
