🪡 Join Annie and Vicki as they look back at another fantastic month in the Minerva community! From exciting website updates to incredible makes shared by sewists around the world, there's plenty to catch up on in this month's edition of This Month at Minerva.
This month, Annie and Vicki take a first look at our brand new PDF Pattern Shop, making it even easier to browse and download your favourite sewing patterns. They also celebrate some of their favourite entries from the #SEWWITHBIG4 challenge, highlight a selection of standout makes from across the Minerva community, reveal this month's well-deserved Maker of the Month, and introduce our brand new community challenge for the month ahead.

This month's challenge is #SEWFREE! We want to celebrate the amazing free sewing patterns available to makers everywhere. Whether you've sewn something using a free pattern, have discovered a hidden gem you'd recommend, or simply want to share a free pattern that's next on your sewing list and tell us why you're excited to make it, we'd love to see your posts. Just remember to use the hashtag #SEWFREE so everyone can find your inspiration!
