Ata mārie e te whānau Kikorangi. Morning Bluesky fam. E mahi ana au i tēnei tāre. I am working on this doll.
I never quite know how they will evolve. I start with stitching her face and then see what happens. Kia pai te rā. #TeReoMāori #BeingMāori #MahiToi

I am preparing a piece for an online embroidery exhibition in 8 weeks. Up early to capture my whakaaro/kaupapa and shape the narrative before I start stitching. I am creating a floral piece based on Hine-te-iwaiwa/Maramataka/Rakaunui. 🌸🌺 #MahiToi #TuiWhakaniko

NZ sewists, I don't know if you need to know, but just in case: Backstreet Bargains currently have heavily reduced fabric from Drapers. It's here on page 2 of their 'newest arrivals'. I bought the knit dots for $20 a metre and also bought the linen check near full price 3 or 4 weeks ago! #mahitoi

Crafters of Bluesky! Sewists, specifically. Has everyone seen this fun new social media/stash tracker/journal/review app Threadloop (previously Backstitch). Like Ravelry but for sewing? It's amazing, I am loving it, and oh dear my pattern wishlist is growing. www.threadloop.app #mahitoi

I have recently been utterly blessed by the second hand fabric gods. I have arguably also been blessed by the first hand fabric gods. Projects ahoy!! #mahitoi

Last, I am making this jumpsuit at the moment.. this is a wearable toile, emphasis on the wearable. The real thing will be made in a dark, floral stripe slub cotton and full length. I adore this fabric, and the jumpsuit has so far been a pleasure to make. Princess seams so easy to adjust. #mahitoi

Hab mich gefreut, dass Vergangenheits-ich die heutige D&D Session schon vor Ewigkeiten vorbereitet hat, und stelle jetzt fest, dass Vergangenheits-ich wohl keine Lust hatte, sich Namen auszudenken 😅
Die Namenstabelle von @mitvorteil.bsky.social kam dann to the rescue 🥰

Thank you to Ngāi Tai ki Tāmaki for their involvement, bringing their aroha into this project to enhance the space & make it truly unique. It’s wonderful to see the mahitoi throughout, including stunning central pillar that features carvings inspired by the footprint of Ngāi Tai.
