Have you made the Viola Quilted Jacket yet? This pattern hits the sweet spot for both established sewists keen to learn a new skill (quilting!), and quilters looking to try their hand at garment-making. This quilted cutie has it all:…

Remember when the internet wasn’t an anxiety-inducing cesspit of AI slop, warring opinions and brands begging for your attention (and money)? Donnay Torr does. And she thinks it’s about time we switch off and reclaim our minds – and joy.

Dreaming of a flowy, blousy dress with beautiful details to take you through sunny days and beyond? Same babe, same – so we designed it!…

Handcrafted on the NSW North Coast, Ruco Paints brings sustainability and artistry together through vegan paints, refillable ceramic pots and small-batch colour runs. Founder Marlena Taylor shares why ‘living a making’ matters.
Fancy an intentional refresh of the knicknacks and heirlooms you surround yourself with, at home or in your shopfront? The Life Instyle team share their insights about the design shifts, materials and values-led brands shaping what’s next and best.
The loss of a furry bestie cuts deep, as our Founding Editor-in-chief Kelley Sheenan knows. In Issue 64, Kelley wrote about the lessons they leave us, from dealing with fascists, napping, and the power of setting – and keeping – boundaries.
Putting together our annual Stitch Up brings on all the feels! We feel humbled that you’ve chosen to sew Peppermint patterns, we feel inspired by the versions you’ve created and we feel proud of you.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas…. Which means we are officially entering party season. Work parties, friend-dos, family get-togethers and then we’re straight…

Look, I don’t want to make anyone panic but IT’S DECEMBER!!! If you’re planning to give homemade gifts, you’re going to have to act fast. …

Fun, fabrics, florals and fab fashion fits by local sewists – what a way to spend a day!

The @LibertyFabrics Showcase hosted by @2GreenZebras and @Regent_Street_Fabrics in Brisbane/Meanjin was a spectacular event. We learned the history of the iconic Liberty Fabrics from two legends, Mary-Ann Dunkley (Head of Design) and Anna Buruma (Archive Director), browsed stalls bursting with Liberty delights and cheered on our local sewist pals on the runway with the @StyleArc Fashion Parade. A little biased shoutout to our Sewing Manager Laura who graced the catwalk with her gorgeous make (check the bag and shoes!). Well done to all involved. 👏🏼

Melbourne/Naarm – it’s your turn this weekend. We can’t wait to see what our Southern friends create for the event.

Secret pjs all day everyday!

How sweet is this version of our Samford Set pattern - created in collab with Lindsey of @SewToGrow 😍

From @Claire.Creates.Clothes:

🟤🟣🟢 Colour spot blocking pregnancy friendly set 🟢🟣🟤

I wanted some #secretpyjamas that I can wear on the couch when I’m pregnant and after for breastfeeding, with a top that I can wear out of the house. Welcome the #PeppermintSamfordSet 

I made the Samford set top in a size F, one size up from my current bust and it’s the perfect amount of room for my expanding tummy, and will hopefully not be crazy oversized after pregnancy. I used a spotted linen that used to be considered good fabric, blocked with a organic linen sheet that was gifted to me for the sole purpose of being fabric by the lovely @heather_steenholdt 

The top came together super quickly and has already had lots of wear - couch, dinner and work ☑️ I even attached the buttons within a week of starting the project, who am I?!

I already had the shorts in the rust linen but never wear them because I don’t like the length or shape at all - they were a pants pattern that I just made shorter. So I cut them to have an inseam of 2.5” and added a 1.5 length ruffle cut at 3” in the contrast spot linen and love them so much more already. Although the shorts will now just be reserved for in house.

I’ve already planned 2 more Samford sets, but will size down to get more post pregnancy wear. And will tackle the pants!

Special thanks to Laura at @peppermintmagazine for sending me the Samford set instructions, you motivated me to put the buttons on before the baby actually arrives! 😁

We all look for the ‘great’ people to rise, when it’s often just everyday individuals that have the courage to stand up and do something.
