**THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED. THANKS EVERYONE WHO ENTERED. THE WINNER HAS BEEN CONTACTED**
You peops love a giveaway! There were so many entries for last week's Village Haberdashery giveaway, and it's such a shame that there can only be one winner. Oh but wait... here's another fabulous sewing-related treat to have a whirl at winning!
This week's prize is being donated by lovely lady and super-talented pattern designer Jen from Jennifer Lauren Vintage. She has kindly promised one lucky Me-Made-May participant a copy of a sewing pattern of their choice from her fabulous range. It's no secret how awesome I think Jen's patterns are, the Bronte knit top (pictured above) in particular.
If you're asking me, I think the new Felicity dress pattern (pictured above) or the Cressida skirt pattern (pictured below) would also be fantastic choices. I've always been impressed with how Jen's designs have a distinctly retro feel, but are all completely wearable for day to day life, not just sitting around in whilst taking high tea. That's a really tough sweet spot to find but somehow she manages to every time.
So, on to the giveaway. This giveaway is open to participants of Me-Made-May only. You do not need to decide what pattern you will choose if you win, but why not help a sister out and suggest what type of garment you'd like Jen to release as a sewing pattern in the future? Jen is currently hella pregnant, so don't hold your breath for an imminent new pattern release, but it will give her something mull over whilst she spends hours sitting on the sofa underneath a snoozing infant!
To enter, simply leave your comment on this post which includes your email address, unless I can access your email address within two clicks of my mouse. No email address, no way to contact you about your choice of pattern. If you aren't positive that it can be accessed within two clicks, then leave it in the comment itself. Your email address will not be used for any purpose other than contacting you if you are the winner. Every time I host a giveaway (last week's included) some people comment without any way to contact them, and it sucks to be them coz often those peops get picked by the random number generator and I have to re-draw. Don't let that be you! Leave your comment by midnight GMT Friday 15th May 2015. I will pick a winner by random number generator the following day.

I Absolutely ADORE that Felicity dress!!!
Dixieodare@gmail.com
Thanks for the chance to win! :)
Ooooh I'd love one of her patterns! And for future design fodder, I'd love to see some sort of cardigan/wrap - I know her flair for vintage chic would result in a garment I would want to wear! My email is titanium [at] gmail [dot] com.
Thanks for the giveaway! Love the Bronte top! This Mmmay15 first week was very fun . Marn_br@yahoo.es
Thanks for the giveaway! I also love her patterns, and I've really wanted to make the Felicity dress since she released it. I would love to see a knit dress pattern from her, since I pretty much live in them! youngseamstress[at]gmail[dot]com
Oh yes, I'm in! Thanks for hosting all this fun stuff. :)

I'm in! I would love to make the cressida skirt. nathaliesewsthings@gmail.com
I'd love to see a button-up blouse, I bet she'd make a lovely one! Thankyou for the giveaway :)

It's always nice to start thinking of ways to use a new pattern (like Cressida skirt)- even if your pattern stash overflows - so I am in! A knit cardigan would be a good idea for a next pattern.
Yay! I love her patterns 😄 I also love dresses so would love to see another dress from her.

I love the felicity pattern. I'm always looking for the perfect pinafore dress pattern. Thanks for great giveaway nic_bostock@yahoo.co.uk
Love the skirt! I'm a very top/jeans kinda gal so what about a nice wearable vintage inspired blouse of some sort? stokescroftstitching(at)gmail(dot)com
Lovely! I really need to get my hands on a shirt! And - as MMM has shown me, I need MORE separates! So I would love to see a super cute skirt, or maybe another knit top
jennifer.tamminga@gmail.com
I'd love a chance to win! I've had my eye on that dress for a while :)
ekhandler@gmail.com
ooh i love the felicity dress! other good stuff to see would be a knit cardigan or a button up blouse. thanks for the giveaway! beththegulfmini@googlemail.com
Ooh a dress pattern for knit, maybe a wrap?
Oooh! I agree that the Bronte top is divine! I love this style, too: retro without being excessively so. What I would suggest would be another top with long sleeves. There are so many short-sleeve or sleeveless tops, and I have trouble finding ones that I like a lot with nice long sleeves! :) Lisa (lisa@cucicucicoo.com)
I concur, i could make a whole wardrobe of bronte tops

a 20's inspired dress pattern may be nice...
This is a fantastic giveaway! I really like all of Jennifer Lauren's patterns and have been trying to come up with a valid excuse to buy them.
I would love to see either a swing dress or maybe a fun play-suit set. But, anything she comes up with I am sure to appreciate!
emmabeaty95(at)gmail(dot)com
I would definitely get the Felicity dress, because I have been lusting after it since its release. In terms of future releases, I would love to see a blazer or cardigan release from her. Or even a swimsuit! I love her designs. :)

First time I've come across Jen's patterns - it's always an exciting day when a new designer is found!

I would love to enter. Maybe some cute shorts would be a cool next pattern.
I've always loved the bronte! meganoes@gmail.com
I love Jennifer's patterns. So gorgeous! I hadn't seen the new Felicity dress, how pretty is that. So happy that MMM is making me wear some of my more unworn items so far.
I'd like to enter please! I'd like to see Jennifer design a little cardigan/wrap/jacket too. I agree with the others that her vintage vibe would be great in a cardi!
pierce(at)tinyworld.co.uk
Thanks Zoe and Jennifer for the giveaway! I've had my eyes on the Bronte top for a while (I already have 2 fabrics in m stash that would be great Brontes) but the new dress pattern really looks lovely too!
Here's my email : juliette.mijeon@gmail.com
You are so right about the Bronte being vintage but super wearable.

What a wonderful giveaway love her design but haven't got around to making any yet. Me email is in the side bar of http://docksjo.com
There's never enough dresses with long sleeves patterns in my opinion so that would be my request! x
I love the Felicity dress! I just made it for my graduation and it is a dream to wear. I think a cardigan or jacket pattern would be great to see for a future design. Thanks for the giveaway! thecollegeseamstress (at) gmail (dot) com
Here goes then .. any pattern of Jens would be gratefully recieved x awyatt38@google mail.com
I've been wanting to try out the bronte top for ages but have never gotten round to buying it! Thanks for the giveaway!

Love, love, love the Felicity dress!!! And since I'm such a fan of dresses I'd be really excited to see another new dress pattern! :)
prairiegirl1971@hotmail.ca
I fell in love with her first pattern the Afternoon Blouse. She had that modern-vintage vibe. I would love the Felicity dress -- would look great in the floral linen I have in my stash!

I'd love the Felicity dress! And maybe for future tops a quick sew top for those times you just want a bit of quick sewing! rjwoodward357_at_googlemail.com
I'd love a work blouse pattern. choistie at yahoo dot com
Love that Afternoon blouse! I think it is perfect for as work attire, love it!
I'd never heard of Jennifer before, so thanks for bringing her to my attention. That dress is amazing! It even has pockets! That is pretty much a requirement for me. I'm having fun with MMM so far--realize I need more comfy lounging around skirts, so that is good to know. I was flipping through my pattern basket this morning. My email is BLDinMT (at) gmail (dot) com
Awesome giveaway! I'd love the bronte tee. As for future patterns I bet she'd have a fun take on trousers!

I would love to try the Felicity dress - Love the pleats

I love the Bronte top pattern and have been eying the Felicity for some time. Great designer.

Perhaps Jennifer could try for trousers next. I'd be curious to see her spin on them.
Shorts would be awesome. Thanks for the opportunity.
Thanks for the giveaway! I think a woven blouse or trousers would be fantastic, although I do usually end up buying dress patterns!

I think I need the Cressida skirt in my life.
As a new mum, I would recommend something in stretch fabric!
Jessica(at)sewingschool(dot)org
Yay giveaway! Thanks!
I'd love to see a shirt dress with a full circle skirt! X
esiuol81@gmail.com
Make more sweater patterns! Your Enid sweatshirt is so cute.
jodi@jodimade.com
I'm into shirt collars at the mo, so anything with a collar would be a winner for me. I'm curious to see if the Felicity dress would suit me, so here's hoping I get lucky!
Vicki_halliday@yahoo.co.uk
I've been intensely lurking Bronte for a while now, to the point where it's almost creepy ;)
nicolemurray75@hotmail.com
Meghann dot white at gmail dot com. I've made two (yet to be blogged) Felicity dresses that I love! My vote for a future pattern is s two-piece set/play suit. Thanks!!
I've recently realised I don't have many skirt patterns in my collection. I love the look of the Cressida skirt and your nautical version. That would be the one for me! Thanks
