Me Made Magic: Our Winners Revealed!

Well, that’s a wrap on this year’s Me Made May and what an inspiring time it was! Our hearts (and feeds!) are full, from reimagined Peppermint classics to bold new pattern hacks – your makes were bursting with creativity, colour and the joy of making.

Huge thanks to everyone who participated in our Me Made Makes competition by tagging us with the #PeppermintMeMadeMakes hashtag when posting your fresh Peppermint pattern creations in the month of May. Talk about a talented bunch of sewists!

Our hope with this sewing challenge was that you, our beloved Peppermint community, would feel encouraged and inspired to create something new, perhaps give sewing a try for the very first time, or maybe re-make a much-loved pattern. Let us tell you, you did not disappoint! We absolutely loved seeing all your Peppermint pattern makes bouncing their way through our feed throughout the month. The colours, the prints, the hacks! *chefs kiss*

We’re so excited to introduce you to the winning sewists (and their glorious garments), each of whom have won a fabulous bundle of sewing treasures from Peppermint and some of our sensational sewing partners!⁠ Each pack (worth over $340 each!) includes goodies from Teggun Ashleigh, Echidna Sewing, Sew Your Way, mollymolly Fabric and Peppermint

Congratulations to our five winners:

Rhian @Rhian_Wyn_ for her outstanding outfit created by combining the Peppermint Pocket Skirt and Peppermint Paddington Top

Paula @PopsCanSew for her patchworked perfection Peppermint Viola Quilted Jacket

Danette @ForAllLove in her heart-stopping hacked Peppermint Jumpsuit

Nov @Made.By.Little.Mama for her double whammy of the Peppermint Valentine Ruffle Top and the Peppermint Spring Shorts hacked into perfect pants.

For a bout of inspo have a wander through all the entries on Instagram using the hashtag #PeppermintMeMadeMakes – such a fabulous lineup! And keep an eye out for our competition again next May.
