Happy Birthday! I love your patterns, but favourite would be the Uptown Girl Jacket. I would love to see more boys patterns, maybe a blazer?
I have wanted your book forever! My favorite of your patterns are summer fling and the sheerwater caftan tops!
I would love to make the Waterfall Blouse. Looks like such a lovely design and love your fabric choices!

I love all your patterns. I have the waterfall blouse "pinned" because I'm pregnant at the moment but think it would be great for after as well. And I love the uptown girl jacket. SO CUTE!!

I love all the patterns but my favorite is Uptown Girl. I just bought some new material and hope to make it this weekend for my 4-year old! Erinwnorcross@gmail.com
Happy Birthday!
I love the Uptown jacket and have been coveting it for a while now. That and the Sprout dress. But the Waterfall blouse also looks great!
Sure would be nice to win!
Thanks for the giveaway.
Happy Birthday! I don't have any of your patterns yet...sigh, but I would love to actually sew something for me for once :)
I loooove making the sprout dress, it's so easy to make and wonderful on.
My daughter's favorite is the Wonderland dress. When given the chance to pick her clothes, she always chooses that one. Congratulations on 5 years.
I am dying to get the shearwayer kaftan pattern!!! Now that you do pdf I finally can :) thecraftingfiend@gmail.com
Love all the patterns. Would like to try the waterfall blouse and see if I can make it work with my baby bump :) thanks for the chance to win!
Love the fact that you now sell PDFs. I'd love to have the shearwater kaftan pattern.
Happy Birthday to you! Ilove your style and colour choices. You have a wonderful eye. Congratulations on your success. It is well deserved.
With two little ladies the Sprout Dress is a favourite- for mummy and girls! A big happy birthday to Make it Perfect!

I'm entered! Ummm fav pattern (I've only ever sewn one) but love the winter girls dress (sorry forgotten the name) the one with the hood
So many beautiful patterns to choose from Toni! I have made the Shearwater Kaftan a couple of times and like to wear it after swimming lessons.
Your patterns look great! I especially like the poppy tunic!
Shearwater kaftan - for me it's a great find, easy to make and the pattern easy to follow. Thanks for all that you do. Your site is such a great find. Good luck and may you enjoy even more success over the next 5 yrs and longer.
I loved making the little explorer shorts and overalls for my boys and their mate's as gifts. I really love the look of the waterfall blouse and the poppy tunic and hopefully one day will get the time to make something for myself. The book is great, read it regularly but have yet to make something. Congrats for five years and many more to come. mirandaheinjus@yahoo.com.au
5 years! Wow. love any pattern for little boys. your boy stuff is excellent.
What a great pile of goodies,I'd love to experiment with them!
Oh perhaps the shearwater kaftan for me! Though I love several of your kids patterns too (uptown girl, long boards, high flyers).
Happy Birthday! Your creativity and energy with three children and one on the way inspires me to sew and make lovey original clothes for my kids, oh and myself! I am rather taken with the Poppy Tunic, looks like a fab winter tunic :)

I LOVE the Uptown girl pattern! Made one for each of my girls and got some fabric for an Afternoon Tea jacket from the book for myself next!

I've always liked Sprout and Uptown Girl
I love summer fling and would love to see boys patterns that go past size 10
Happy Birthday! Blessed your birthday Lovely Uptown girl!
I just recently purchased your downtown boy pattern and made my little boy a gorgeous jacket for winter! Cant wait to purchase and make more of you patterns!
Whoops, forgot my e-mail
lizzi3 'at' optusnet.com.au
I love the boy's board shorts!
Happy 'birthday'! Love your patterns and the book...would like to see some more trousers for girls! Oh and some jersey/stretch patterns to help me get started there! My son loves the kids vest I made him from your book...and it was easy!
My favourite was the Poppy Tunic but I am thinking about adding the waterfall blouse to my stash.
Happy 5 years! My favourite pattern so far is Sprout - mainly because it's the first "real" dress I've attempted to sew and it turned out beautifully. I made my daughter wear it five days in a row I was so proud of it! It's so great to have an Australian sewing blog with such lovely stuff on it.

Oh yes please, yes please, yes please!!
really, just one!
I'm loving the versitile wrap and the kaftan. Adore.
146I love reading your blog, my favourite pattern is the versatile wrap skirt, it is simple to make, looks gorgeous and is easy to wear :)
Toni, I love all your patterns but my favourite is your pj patterns; sweet dreams for women and slumber party for kids. The reason this is my favourite is that it got me sewing again!! I had finally found some patterns that were funky and modern and fresh; and something you really want to make!!
So thanks heaps! :)
I have always liked your patterns and pull them out when I have present I have forgotten, well done.
Happy 5th birthday what a fabulous milestone :). For boys I love both the long boards and the downtown jacket and for the girls I love sprout. Once again happy birthday :)
I would love to win this book. My favourite MIP pattern is the poppy tunic. I have 3 cut out - none made yet - but I will get there! Definitely going to try some more now that I can get them in pdf's
I love your Little Explorers pattern, and my next purchase will definitely be the Little Downtown Boy - I can't wait to try my hand at that one :-)
Happy Birthday MIP!
I would love to win. I'm currently making my first waterfall blouse.
I love reading your blog and wish I had as much crafty time as you. My favourite pattern is the uptown girl jacket but my girls are too big now so I need to update to the Big Uptpwn Girl pattern.
Vanessa
maltari@bigpond.com
A big Happy Birthday from me too ... I love the huge range of patterns that you have on your site so choosing just one is a challenge!! but I would pick the Waterfall blouse (& maybe the A+ skirt). Just gorgeous!!
Lyn
Happy Birthday Make It Perfect! My absolute favourite pattern would have to be the PJ pattern...so quick and easy! My kids love wearing their new Jamie's straight away. I would love to see a little girl's Versatile Wrap as I have fond memories of wearing a wrap when I was little! Best wishes for the next 5 years!! Danielle
carpo@vic.australis.com.au
Happy Birthday! absolutely love the patterns my little granddaughter loves her Uptown Girl.
I love the versatile wrap pattern, it looks so easy to wear all the time. I have so many fabrics that would look great for it!
I love the Little Uptown Girl Pattern and have bought the pattern and fabric ready to make it. I'm just learning, so I'm practicing at making a few easier things first (so far I've made a skirt and bag and a pinafore), so I think I'm almost ready to make the coat!
Happy Birthday!

Congrats on the first 5 years - here's to many more!!
I love so many of your patterns and have a couple waiting to be made, but my fave has to be the Little Sprout. My daughter loves it so much and looks so cute in it :)
Thanks for the wonderful giveaway.
Congrats on 5 years! I can't wait to try the Waterfall Blouse :)
All of your stuff is beautiful, but I especially love your women's clothing. I'm always sewing stuff for my kids, so I'm making it a goal to start making more things just for me!

Congratulations on 5 yrs! That's such a fantastic milestone!! I have downloaded the Waterfall Blouse, it's printed, traced, fabric is washed, ironed and ready to cut into. Hoping to finish it this weekend. My favourite pattern, which was the first item of clothing I've made & have used too many times to count, is the Little Explorer for my boys. Would love to see more boys patterns too!
My all time favourite would have to be uptown girl jacket. Made two for my youngest and they are both still hanging in her wardrobe and are waaaay to small for her now! Congrats on the big milestone Toni!

What a fabulous giveaway... Congratulations on 5years! The first thing I ever made after retreiving a sewing machine from my parents attic was the versatile wrap skirt and that was the start of a wonderful sewing adventure! However my favourite pattern is the poppy tunic... I love it! Very excited to try the waterfall blouse! Karen x

I love the gift ideas.
Fantastic giveaway & congratulations on the 5 fab years! Here's to many more. I love your a plus skirt pattern. I'm also a huge fan of your tutorials, particularly the 30 minute skirt & zippered pouch. Thanks for the continuing inspiration & for the chance to win.
Ooh, what a lovely giveaway. Happy birthday! I'm always happy to see more patterns for boys.
I just bought the uptown girl recently that I'm going to make into a waterproof jacket for my little girl.... I've also must buy your hat pattern. It's something that's been on my to do list for a while :-). lhootnz at gmail dot com
Congratulations - what an amazing 5 years. I tried to get hold of you book in the UK but nothing doing, so a copy would be wonderful. I can't sew much at the moment as the builders are working on our house and we have no space but once they've gone I'll be back to it. I'd love the slumber party jammies as a pdf please!
Congratulations! I really like the honey blouse. Hope you have more boys patterns as well as bigger sizes as my eldest is turning 7yrs old.
Happy birthday to one of my favourite sewing bloggers! My favourite pattern is the Poppy Tunic - I just loooovvveee it!!! feva3977@gmail.com
Happy Birthday!!! I would love to see girls patterns in bigger sizes, my baby is 9 and as the only clothes I sew are from your patterns, I would love some choice for her. Oh and 3/4 pants would be awesome
What an awesome giveaway! Thx for the chance.
I love the poppy tunic, and I would love to see some more dress patterns!

The Uptown girl pattern is probably my favourite - closely followed by lazy day hat and a+ skirts which I have made a few of each!
Happy Birthday!
I love all the patterns but in particulary i really love the "shearwater kaftan" and the "slumber party jammies", for that was the reason i found your blog.
Thank you for your lovely blog!
sofiaruivo@gmail.com
So excited you have PDF patterns now! My sister and I were just talking today about how amazing the versatile skirt it:) sandcsaunders@gmail.com
Awesome Toni!! Inspirational. I love your Shearwater Kaftan Pattern. I am pregnant also so love the look of your Waterfall Blouse. So much sewing fun! I love seeing all the gorgeous little rompers and clothes you are making for Bub. Oh I can be contacted at sanchia(at)sanchia(dot)com(dot)au. xox
happy birthday and thanks for the presents :-)
i love your new blouse pattern but also the poppy tunic looks awesome - would love to try it as soon i can find time for a new project.
Congratulations! I love the Shearwater kaftan!
what a nice giveaway! i love the honey blouse pattern, it looks like it would be an easy wear. and who doesnt love that idea.
I love uptown girl jacket!
Boys pattern would be great too...
maren_ryckeboer(ad)hotmail.com
wow, great giveaway! my fave pattern is the Milkshake Skirt!
Congrats on celebrating 5 years of MIP...can't wait to see what the next 5 years have in store! My personal fave is the Shearwater Caftan;) I'd love to see you expand into patterns for teens, both boy and girl. I think that size range is under represented and it's so hard to find patterns to sew when your children are too big for the kid patterns yet not big enough for the adult ones.
beachmomof4(at)gmail(dot)com
Love the lazy day hat and shearwater kaftan! Happy birthday!
Happy B-day :) my favourite would be Summer carnival, sooooo cute :).
I just discovered your blog and work.a few days ago! I am just starting to dive into garment sewing and as a a newbie to garments (an old pro with quilting), I am excited about simple versatile patterns that don't use lots of closures. Thanks for the giveaway try!
Jen at toddleita dot com
Only 1 favourite? LOL try A+skirts and Poppy tunic and waterfall top and ..... thanks for the comp :)

Awesome giveaway! I love the Flipsy skirt the best.
Happy Birthday!

I am so excited to try the Waterfall Blouse. I haven't made anything for myself in a long long time.
I'd have to say your Waterfall Blouse is amazing! I can't wait to see what's inside your book!!
Happy Birthday! I love your patterns and my favorite is the wrap around skirt.
I would love to own your slumber party jammies and versatile wrap patterns! they've been on my list for awhile now... Mother's Day is coming--perhaps a gift to myself :)
Happy Blog-anniversary!
I like the poppy tunic! Very nice!
Please pick me (flaviasa (at) web (dot) de)

I haven't used any of your patterns yet, but I've been wanting your book since it came out!
What a lovely pile of goodies! THANKS for the chance!
ourbusylittlebunch(at)hotmail(dot)com
Well done for getting to 5 years! The Versatile Wrap is a wardrobe staple for me. I'd love to try out the Poppy tunic or Waterfall pattern next. It is fantastic that I can now get them as a PDF- living in a small town in NZ means that getting hold of your patterns is a bit of a challenge!
angelaleefitzgerald@hotmail.com
Sprout dress has always been on my "to do" list, but havent found the time yet! claireebianchi @ yahoo . dot . com . au

jessica oliveto @ gmail.com
Happy birthday! My favs are the Waterfall Blouse and the Uptown Girl Jacket. So awesome!
Happy Birthday!! I love your Slumber Party Jammies pattern - they are the only PJ pants my 6 yr wears! And I'm about to start on a Shearwater Kaftan for the summer.
Happy 5th birthday! I love the Honey blouse pattern - so much in fact that since buying the pattern I've made SEVEN of them. Well...eight if you count one I made for a friend and nine if you count the one I will start today for my sister. Obsessed - yes! So easy to wear and everyone always comments how much they like them.
Loving the pdf patterns - have just bought the wrap skirt today....will have one for everyday of the week soon. lol!
Keep the patterns coming. Love them!
susiet@aapt.net.au
My favourite patterns are the Poppy Tunic and Honey Blouse. I made the tunic last year and blouse the year before and have had so many comments about them. I've even been wearing them while pregnant, although they're getting a wee bit tight now that I'm 37 weeks. I've bought the Waterfall Blouse in PDF form in the hope I'll have a chance to make it.
Thanks for an ace giveaway.
nicp42@live.com.au
I haven't had a chance to try your patterns yet, but am looking forward to making the ruffled diaper covers (summer carnival) for my daughter this summer!
Congrats on 5yrs of awesomeness. I haven't sewn your patterns yet but have your kaftan pattern and have borrowed your book from the library. I'm currently dreaming of beautiful fabrics to make some skirts for myself and my girls. I would be so exited to own my own book
Thanks for the chance. Love all your top patterns, just need to make them instead of buying more! Lol
My favorite pattern is Uptown Girl, and I'd love to see it in a womens size!
Love your patterns Toni! Would love to try the waterfall blouse.
sk.meiklejohn at bigpond dot com
I love your patterns!!! The slumber party jammies is one of my favs. hey sew up quick and are soooo cute!
Happy 5 years Toni - so many patterns in such a short amount of time. I love the Little High Flyers for my boy.... AND have also made them for my girl. It is a great pattern.

Congratulations on five great years and we are all looking forward to many more with you. I love your new Waterfall Blouse and have loved your Shearwater Tunic. Your patterns offer a perfect mix for everyone's family.

Love the little explorer shorts! Would love to win, thanks for this giveaway and happy 5 year blog anniversary!
Happy birthday!! I'm adore all of your patterns, but the Poppy Tunic has to be my favourite. In fact I'm wearing one right now. Some more ladies dresses would be something I'd like to see.
admin@jmedubbo.com
My favourite pattern would be the uptown girl jacket because it is just so darn cute! I can't believe it has only been 5 years for your awesome business. I find so much inspiration from you all the time.
Congratulations on your 5th birthday as well!
Versatile wrap for sure! It was the first thing I sewed and I made three and have worn them to death!
I'd really like a stretch wrap dress! Or a shirt dress that I could wear to work.
Oh, I just love the shearwater kaftan and now that it's in PDF I'll be finally able to sew it.
Congratulations on the 5 years!
wow wow wow. i got the t-shirts. such a good basic!

Just l-o-v-e my "Little Uptown Girl" pattern that I bought for my granddaughters. Happy Birthday, Make it Perfect, here's to the next five years!
Happy birthday and congratulations! Can't believe 5 years has passed so swiftly. I enjoy a few of your patterns but the most loved and used is the slumber party jammies. Can't even recall how many I've sewn for all sorts of presents. Quick, easy and everyone loves receiving it!
Happy Birthday! I Love the Kaftan. And I would love some Patterns for big girls that Look Good without Loosing some pounds before. ;)
Congratulations on 5 years! I've got lots of your patterns but haven't made them all yet. Love them as they are really well explained and easy to follow. I've probably made the slumber pants jammies the most. I'm about to make the PDF A+ skirt, and I'd like to make the Honey Blouse some time soon. Rose

Hip hip hooray happy birthday.. I made the snappy tie last weekend for our little groover to wear to our cousins wedding - he was definately the most handsome there! Love the versatility of your patterns - creative cards, paper patterns, book and now PDF! Well done.
randlisa@activ8.net.au
Wow Happy birthday. I must admit I love all of your patterns. I love the shearwater kaften and the pj's... Thanks Sandyn
I have had complete success with all of your patterns so far. Probably why they were recommended in the first place!
The Uptown Jacket has been such a big hit with my girls it has to be my favourite.
Oooh, happy birthday! What a gorgeous little collection for a giveaway!
My daughter has grown out of her first Sprout. I love that pattern. Might be time to make her another one.
I learnt to sew with your patterns ... Love them ! Is citrus pop going on sale again on madeit ? I would love to win the pack :) Cant wait to make the new waterfall blouse :) Ps love the pdf patterns.
hi Toni, I love your patterns, they have clear instructions, make up well and best of all the fit is great.
My favourites are the a+ skirts and the up town girl for my 4 year old.
Congrats on 5 years. I love your a+ skirt. A great fit and lots of options for variation. Would love to try your new waterfall blouse. As a new mum i think it would be a very forgiving pattern. emily.easman@gmail.com
I'm super interested in your new waterfall blouse pattern. I love the idea of wearing it pregnant or not!
I love your patterns, my favorite pattern from your book is short pants for boy, I make for my boy 2 years old and he loves it!
It would be good if can add pocket on the front as well:)
Congratulations! I have been a follower for some time now and I love your work! As a mother of two boys I can never get enough boys patterns, so that is my suggestion :)
Ana
Thanks for the amazing giveaway! Congratulations :)
