Do you guys remember how I kept bugging you guys to check out my Skinnyscoop list this past July? Well it was for a reason. I was working my darndest to be on of Skinnyscoop's Fantastic Four for July and guess what?! Thanks to all of your help, it worked! I hit 1,000 views on my list (along with four other folks) and was awarded a top spot in the "List Making Hall of Fame" (no, this is not a real place). Anyhoo, that contest had a prize and guess what?! I am sharing it with you guys via, what I deem, a pretty awesome giveaway! So what do you guys have the opp to win? Well, take a look see.
One lucky winner will get not one but two awesome prizes! First, for even the novice sewer, the Brother XL2600I Sew Advance 25-Stitch Free-Arm Sewing Machine is a great, trustworthy machine that can be used for multiple crafty, fashionable projects! It has great user reviews so I am sure you guys won't be disappointed. I happen to think that even if you want to learn to sew, having your own machine is the best motivator to keep practicing! Not only will the winner receive the Brother sewing machine but they will also win a copy of my new favorite sewing book, The BurdaStyle Sewing Handbook: packed with easy-to-follow tutorials, five adaptable sewing patterns for
a skirt, blouse, dress, coat, and bag, and fifteen step-by-step sewing
projects, this book gives you the basic building blocks to begin sewing
and the tools you need to move beyond the basics to designing and
customizing your own wardrobe. Be your own fashion designer! This prize retails for over $175 so that's a nice chunk of change xoxo
So what do you do to win?
a Rafflecopter giveaway

Oooh I would so (sew?) love to win this. I've been wanting to learn how to sew for a long time but I don't have a machine.
ReplyDeleteAs far as feedback...I think the content is great but design-wise, when I come to your blog my eyes don't quite know where to land due to the lack of borders/outlines.
I was actually looking at this exact sewing machine! Now that I have a craft room, I need one!
ReplyDeleteI love your DIY's. I want more. (I'm greedy like that.)
What a fun little machine to learn on!
ReplyDeleteAwesome giveaway, would love to win!
ReplyDeleteWe desperately need curtains, but haven't found any we love. It'd be great to be able to make them ourselves, because we'd have a lot more fabric options!
ReplyDeleteI had a vintage singer when i lived in Massachusetts that was too big and bulky to fit into my small nyc apartment. I would love to continue learning to sew and making clothes for myself and niece!
ReplyDeletehow fuN! i wanna win!

ReplyDeleteI am using a goodwill special that breaks down every three uses, but trying to build a small business using recycled fabric...a bit frustrating! I can't get a new machine until I build up my inventory to sell, but I can't build up my inventory w/o a new machine... :)

ReplyDeleteI love sewing but every time I want to make something I have to borrow my MIL's sewing machine and I think she is kind of annoyed about it because I ask for it too often. It would be so awesome to win my own sewing machine and not ask to borrow it over and over again. Especially now when my kids outgrew all their clothes and I would really like to make some new clothes for them
ReplyDeleteI love to sew, but I don't have a machine. I'd really like to win this!

ReplyDeletegrand daughters would learn on it.
ReplyDeleteBecause I was taught to sew when I was six, when my great grandmother was alive she promised to pass hers along to me.... However when she passed her husband did not take it well and sold everything out from under us all. I know have a little girl and would like to teach her and pass it down to her!
ReplyDeleteI would love this prize because I am obsessed with sewing. I think a good machine would help me out a lot. I also have wanted this book for a while now.
ReplyDeleteThis would be a dream present for me! I love to sew and my sewing machine is very old and doesn't work properly. A new one would be a blessing!
