A great day! The sewing machine changed the lives of so many women it deserves a whole week of recognition. Hurray for the sewing machine.
WOW! This would be a nice sewing machine and quilting supplies to win! Good Luck everyone! Thank you, Kimberly and Fat Quarter Shop!
What a great giveaway! Good luck to everyone!
I have been teaching my 8 year old granddaughter to sew. She’s doing amazing. I’d love to win this for her ❤️.
I am teaching my DGD to sew. Thanks for the wonderful giveaway!
Shared this multiple ways! I’m passing along the love of fabric and color (Pat, Pat the stash) to our seven year old granddaughter…. She’s all fired up and having a blast!!
I never knew there was a National Sewing Machine Day. This could be the day I go buy a new one. Mine locked up yesterday – with a quilt block in it. I mean, it is really, really, locked up – not budging. Ugh!!!
Thank you, FQS!🧵
In the last 20-25 years I have held several classes at my church to teach sewing. A lot of the ladies are actively sewing at this time. One lady who passed away had recepients of her many quilts to bring them to her service. It was very touching.
As I was explaining in my first pre-class that we would purchase fabric, cut it into pieces and sew them together. As this was a disappearing 4 Patch I explained that we would cut the sewn 4 patches and then sew them back together. She looked at me and said “I’m out”.
Thank you for the fun giveaway. I have taught several friends how to quilt and now my best friend is going to start taking quilting lessons on my Long Arm machine. I’m so excited to teach her. You are the best Kimberly.
My 4 year old granddaughter is showing interest already. She likes to get the ruler and mark lines then put in pins and the sew on the lines with me helping of course. I might get someone to like seat with me yet. So excited!🥰
I wish I had seen the videos of the Ultimate Quilt Series before I jumped in the deep end. It would’ve made learning so much easier 🙂 Thank you for all your tutorials.
I like my Janome, very easy to use.
My 5 year old granddaughter is showing so much interest in sewing. I am loving teaching her the basics and looking forward to sharing my love of quilting with her as she grows.
What a wonderful machine and a lovely gift to giveaway!! Good luck everyone!
