The Pattern Paper is showcasing amazing talent from around the world…Get inspired by discovering over 50 patterns from over 50 artists who took part in the Summer ‘21 edition of the Pattern Challenge on Instagram, created and hosted by Melanie Johnsson.

♥ We’re raising money for the Arthouse Unlimited Charity with this Summer 2021 issue of the Pattern Paper. All profits will be donated to Arthouse Unlimited. The more newspapers we sell (pre-orders only) the more profit we make (that’s the magic of printing) and the more money we can donate to Arthouse Unlimited! ♥

COLOUR • JOY • COMMUNITY • INSPIRATION • CREATIVITY

Details about the Pattern Paper: Printed in the UK. Pre-orders only means no overprinting = no waste. Why a newspaper? It’s fun, easy to recycle and my favourite part: you can reuse it for arts and crafts! (All those patterns will inspire you for sure). As an added bonus, you’ll also discover the prompts for the next pattern challenge in this issue. If you want to join, it’ll be held in February 2022 on Instagram!

Do you ship to my country? Yes! If you can’t find your country in the shipping list, get in touch with me (Unfortunately, I’m unable to ship to South Africa at this time. I’ve had a lot of issues with it and nothing I've sent there has actually ever arrived so that’s on pause. Sorry!)

Shipping cost explained: The Pattern Paper is a bit bigger than A4 when folded, which means it only fits in an C3 envelope…which makes it a small parcel (and not a large letter) hence the “expensive” shipping fee compared to the rest of my stuff, which usually fits in a C4 envelope.

When will I get my Pattern Paper? Pre-orders are open for two weeks only until 5/11. The Pattern Papers will be sent to print on 6/11 and sent out in the mail on the w/c 15/11 or before.
