What does your ideal bag look like?

Do you think that the best things come in small packages? Do you like a big just-in-case bag that will carry everything that you may need? Do you prefer a Goldilocks bag - not too big and not too small?

And, share an action shot of your bag for an extra entry! This might be a photo of you or a friend holding or wearing your bag, or a photo of the types of things that you carry in your bag, or even a photo of your bag out in the wild.

Entries close at noon UK time on 28th September. You can enter one solo shot and one action shot per bag, and as many different makes as you would like! Full terms & conditions are at the bottom of this page.

 

 


Rules & Terms

How to Enter:
Add a photo of your favourite make so far to the gallery for a chance to win.
For an extra chance to win, share an action shot of your bag. This might be a photo of you or a friend holding or wearing your bag, or a photo of the types of things you carry in your bag, or a photo of your bag out in the wild - on the beach, at a cafe, at your stitching or knitting club. (Please make sure you have permission to share from anyone else who appears in your photo)

Entry Terms:

  • Only bags made using designs from Sewing Patterns by Mrs H or from Swoon Patterns will be eligible. You can enter any design from across the Swoon Patterns and Sewing Patterns by Mrs H ranges, including free patterns. You may have purses from other designers in your photo, but they must not be the main focus of the picture.
  • You can enter one solo shot and one action shot per bag.
  • You can enter as many bags as you would like.
  • The closing date for entries is 28th September at noon UK time.
  • We will select our favourite photo from the gallery based on creativity of the photo, and creativity of the make (such as fabric choices), not by sewing skill. Bag makers of all skill levels are encouraged to submit photos of their bags.
  • We will select three runners up using a random picker.
  • We will select the winners within 48 hours of entries closing, and will contact winners by email. If we do not receive a response from a winner within 28 days of our email, we will select an alternate.

Prize information:

Judged prize: One entrant will win a gift subscription to the Bag of the Month Club worth $20 USD. This subscription can be used for either the current season of the Club or for a future season.
Random draw: Three entrants will win a PDF sewing pattern of their choice from across the Swoon Patterns and Sewing Patterns by Mrs H catalogues. The value of each prize will depend on the pattern chosen by the winner. Winners must choose their prize by 31st December 2021.
