THE Q & A SERIES - SAYING THANKS FOR FREE PATTERNS + RESOURCES
Hi Emily,
I just downloaded the Peppermint Wide Leg Pants pattern. It was only once I made the download that I realised that it was your pattern! They requested a donation but I think really this should have come to you. So I would be happy to make a donation to your coffers for this pattern. Please let me know how. I have used your amazing resources for some years and I continue to enjoy your posts.

Hi Miranda,
I am thrilled to hear you’ll be making the Peppermint Wide Leg pants pattern!
It’s very kind of you to offer a donation for the work I do in this space, and I appreciate you reaching out to discuss this. It has always been a part of my mission to offer as much free content as possible.
While I was paid a modest sum by Peppermint Magazine to create all of the patterns in this collaboration, this was with the understanding that these patterns would always be free. A number of my supporters have brought to my attention that Peppermint has added a donation button to the In the Folds free patterns and have reached out asking if there is any way to donate to me directly in order to support my business .
By giving makers the option to donate I will be able to continue doing what I'm doing - offering free resources that help you make clothes you will wear, love and cherish.
If you would like to say thanks to In the Folds for the free patterns I have created or any of the other free resources I continue to create, you can give a donation by following the button below. Any amount is appreciated and directly supports In the Folds to keep creating the high quality content and resources that you love.
Happy sewing,
Emily
