Thank you to Josie Durney for creating this inspiring post for our Below The K\u014dwhai community.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Women's<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The second I saw the Tui pinafore<\/a>, I fell in love. I loved how tidy the lining looks and how\u00a0the straps reached the waistband… however there was only one problem, I’m very much not<\/em> a child anymore.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So I played around and decided to mashup the Tui Pinafore and Women’s M\u0101nuka Skirt.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What you need:<\/strong>\u00a0
Below the K\u014dwhai Tui Pinafore Pattern<\/a>
Below the K\u014dwhai Women’s M\u0101nuka Skirt Pattern<\/a>
A ruler
A calculator\u00a0
Extra paper for drafting pattern pieces<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Women's<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Figuring Out Sizes and Ratios<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Firstly, I looked at the size chart for the Tui Pinafore, and worked out the approximate ratios between each size, I also looked at the size chart for the M\u0101nuka Skirt and compared the difference in measurements between the sizes.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m a size 8 for the M\u0101nuka Skirt and an approximate size 10 on the top, so decided to run with a size 8 mashup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I worked out the ratios between each pattern size and then measured the distance between the height and width on the Squared front bodice piece of the Tui Pinafore. From the two ratios I made the pattern slightly wider in width and much longer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I held this up against my body to make sure it was approximately the correct size. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also applied the same logic to the straps, however in hindsight wished they were slightly thinner, so I’d suggest mainly modifying the length. (See photo below for my notes and pattern piece)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Sewing<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Changing Pattern Pieces<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

For the bottom half of the pinafore, I used all pattern pieces from the Manuka Skirt, except for the front waist, because the pinafore needs 1 x lining and 1 x main fabric. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I created a pattern piece to help merge the patterns together by approximately halving this piece horizontally then adding room for seam allowance (see above photo).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Sewing<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Sewing It Together<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

From there I followed the instructions of the Tui Pinafore, until it was complete (with a brief break in between before I could order more burgundy thread for top stitching). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I used the Tui Pinafore loop and bow hack<\/a> from the blog and also added in a sweet label from Kylie & The Machine<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m really happy with how it turned out and I’m looking forward to wearing it over winter.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Finished<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Thanks for sharing your experience in hacking together these two patterns to make such a fabulous garment! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We can’t wait to make our own Women’s Tui Pinafores after reading this and seeing yours!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
