To market, to market! The spring and summer season of The Finders Keepers markets is upon us and we’ll see you there!

Come along to see over 250 incredible stallholders at the Royal Exhibition Building in Melbourne from the 13–15 of October. As the very proud media partner of The Finders Keepers for the third year in a row, you’ll spot us all over the place, including in the Read and Refresh Lounge – where you can relax and grab a free copy of Peppermint to take home – and also with a selection of debut stallholders: they’ll have copies of our latest issue to give away to customers! 

We’re also super excited to be setting up shop as part of a new activation, The Change Room, celebrating all things sustainable fashion! We’re bringing along an absolute cavalcade of amazing stuff (and we’re not just talking about our best sustainable ‘fits).

Visit us to pick up our latest issue, a special subscription offer or a bundle (that’s four issues of Peppermint plus four sewing patterns, all wrapped in our exclusive fabric from Spoonflower!). Plus, we’re launching something very special for all the sewists and sewing hopefuls out there… 

Introducing, Sew Organised, your very own Peppermint sewing journal!

Printed here in Australia on recycled paper, SO has got space for everything – your measurements, swatches, sketches, ideas, projects and scribbles! Whether you keep her pristine in your sewing room or chuck her in your #MeMade tote for daily adventures, we’ve designed SO to be your constant companion when it comes to planning, organising and reflecting on your sewing practice. And the first copies will be available EXCLUSIVELY at The Finders Keepers Melbourne markets this weekend!

And that’s not all, folks!

We’ll also be launching these stunning ceramic sewing pattern weights, hand-made by multi-hat-wearing Peppermint founder Kelley Sheenan (is there anything she can’t do?). Created especially for The Finders Keepers Melbourne Markets, these gorgeously useful weights are available in Mint or Shino. 

Tickets for The Finders Keepers Melbourne are on sale now (just $6) and when you buy a ticket, you’ll go in the running to win one of five subscriptions to Peppermint!
