    1. I like learning from all the wonderful quilters and I have learned that I like paper pieceing.

  2. I love piecing together quilts and my machine giving me the option to embroider on them if I choose to do so. 🙂

  4. I love to sew bags and purses. My favorite thing about my machine is the ability to start and stop from a button on my machine and not have to use a foot pedal. I will never have another machine without that option.

  6. Someday I will get up the nerve to tackle paper piecing! Seems overwhelming right now, but it’s definitely a goal!

  7. I just upgraded to a new Janine S7 and it makes quilting a dream! Would love this prize pack to go along with my new machine!
