***This giveaway is now closed – see who won below!***
After clocking 10,000 entries under 24 hours, we’re already back to crown a random winner of the SINGER One sewing machine. The lucky person is… Angela (who says she’s a 1 on the sewing skills scale: “I can sew a straight line, but only if someone threads the machine for me first”). Congrats!
I’ve never touched a sewing machine in my life, but I’ve heard Sherry’s passionate muttering from the next room while using hers. Which is why anything labeled “Our easiest to use machine!” sounds compelling. And we’re so (sew?) excited that Singer is helping us give away a SINGER One – a feature-packed sewing machine that retails for nearly $500 – to one lucky reader! Something about an Automatic Needle Threader and OneTouch stitch selection sounds “approachable.” Plus the 24-available stitch patterns makes me believe you could fake your way into some pretty fancy stuff. Oh, and did we mention that Singer will ship this puppy anywhere in the world?
- PRIZE: A SINGER One sewing machine (a $499 value!)
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “SEW ME!” and tell us…
- BONUS QUESTION: …where do you rank yourself on the sewing skills continuum? Are you a 1 like me (I couldn’t sew my way out of a bag)? A self-proclaimed 3 like Sherry (who could probably make “a wonky bag”)? Or are you more like a 10 (who could not only sew a bag from scratch, but do so blindfolded)?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, Dec 12th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: This giveaway is available worldwide (we always beg every vendor to ship internationally but some companies are not legally able to vend things beyond the US – more on that here).
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

lindsey says
Sew me! I am probably a six…maybe seven even….but the higher the number the more bad words I seem to use :)
Lisa says
Sew Me
I’m probably a 3, make a mean curtain panel, four straight lines. Just completed buttonholes. More complicated projects scare me.
Kristen says
SEW ME!
I’m about a 3. My mom taught me when I was young but I don’t have my own machine to practice on. But I’ve gotten by especially since I’ve learned about iron hemming from Sherry!
Laura says
Sew me….maybe a 3 if all goes well!
Jill says
Sew Me!! I would love a singer sewing machine!! I am fairly accomplished at sewing and find it soothing. Would love to sew up some fun things!
Sarah S. says
SEW ME!
I am a 2. I’ve used a sewing machine before but could definitely learn some things.
Kacey says
SEW ME! I’m definitely a 0 since I have never even attempted to sew, but both my mother and sister make their own clothes, curtains, beddings, etc., so I think it’s time I catch up.
Terri Stewart says
SEW ME, I am definitely a 3 and would love to get in touch with my inner, home economics, 8th grade self and start sewing again!!!
Colleen says
SEW ME!
Definitely a 1….no idea how to sew, at all. But want to learn!
Christine says
SEW ME! Pretty please! What a gorgeous machine.
I’ve been sewing since I was little but never got into sewing clothing.. I would say I’m a good solid 5!
Jen says
SEW ME! I’m for sure a 1…just used your hem tape trick to make pillow shams, but my Mom’s a 10 and I’d love for her to have a brand new Singer to train me on ;-)
Kristin says
SEW ME! I’m a pitiful 1, but with three kids tearing holes in a vast array of clothing and costumes (yes, costumes), I think it’s time to learn.
Halsey says
Definitely a 3 or 4. My nanny taught me how to sew by hand when I was a child, and in middle school I used to try to make little satchels for my friends with my grandmothers old Singer. Been forever since I have had a sewing machine and would love to get back into it!!
Halsey says
Oh- SEW ME!!
Dianna says
SEW ME!
I’m a 2, left over from the lessons my grandma gave me 20 years ago. I can sew a straight line (so a pillow cover?), but that is about it. Would love to have a machine to start again.
Bee Cee says
SEW ME!
Definitely a 1.
Amanda says
Sew Me! I’m definitely a 1, though I’m dying to be a 5. I’ve been wanting to learn how to sew for awhile now. I even have a pile of clothes waiting to be refurbished for whenever I get the chance to learn.
Erika Panter says
SEW ME!
That’s gonna be a big goose egg on the scale. A zero. I can barely sew a button. I’ve always waited to learn though and this sewing machine sounds perfect for newbies!
Julie says
SEW ME!
I would say I’m a 5, maybe a 6. I really honed my skills when I made my daughter a koala costume with faux fur and an invisible zip a couple of years ago.
Liz says
Sew Me!!
I’m definitely a 1….maybe 0.5 if that counts? I would love to learn and this would be the greatest motivator!
Betsy Hayes says
Probably a 2. I always mess up the thread!
Carol says
SEW ME! I’m a 4, and I could so use a new machine!
Emily D says
Sew me! I can thread the bobbin…sometimes. :)
Catherine says
SEW ME! I’m about a 6. I frequently make pillows and bags and simple things, but nothing too fancy. I did make a whole dress once though, and I am sure I could do it again if I was ever that motivated again!
Tim says
SEW ME!
I was a 5 when I was young, now I seem to have forgotten everything my grandma taught me and am down to a 2.
Steffi G. says
SEW ME! I may be a 5 but I should get an 8 for effort! I would love a new Singer Sewing Machine!
Karen says
Sew me!!!
I’m definitely a 1. And that makes having to hem my husbands uniform pants a little difficult.
Thank you for your awesomeness!!
Angie says
Sew Me!!!
I’d say I’m around a 4. I sewed slip covers for my couch and chair, but don’t look too closely at any of the seams. :)
Kristin says
SEW ME!
I’m a 0…sad state of affairs
Brianna says
Sew me! I am probably a 3… self taught and can do basic stuff. Nothing fancy… yet! My current sewing machine likes to go on strike and turn itself off during the middle of projects.
Julia says
Sew Me!
I’m a 3. I can hand stitch things decently.
Alan says
SEW ME!
Kate says
SEW ME!
Probably a 6 or 7… This machine looks pretty handy!
Thanks for the giveaway,
Kate
keisha says
SEW ME!
Hm. I’d say I’m maybe a 2.5? I can make a lined zipper pouch and sew *square things*, but I would probably have to go nekkid if told I’d have to sew my own clothes or anything like that……
Amal says
SEW ME
I think I rank at about a 5. I did a little bit of sewing in high school and I’ve recently gotten excited about it again because of all the DIY stuff out there. If I won this, I think I’d be on Pinterest for most of the day…
Maybe it’s best that I don’t have it. (kidding. Hook a sister up please random computer generator thingy)
Diane says
SEW ME!
I think I’m an 8.5! I’ve sewn a lot of different things over the years – mostly things for my home!
Katie says
SEW ME!
Definitely a 1. I made stockings for our first Christmas with my moms machine and really want to make a tree skirt with out having to steal hers again!
Nikki says
SEW ME!! I may be a 6-7 … been sewing for years :-))
Kristin says
SEW ME!
I’d say currently I might be a 2, but with a little time to remember my high school sewing class and a little help from my man’s aunt I think I could be at a 6 in no time with this awesome machine!
Ann says
SEW ME! I’m probably a 7 due to rustiness. I haven’t sewn much in a few years, but I could sew a nice bag if I plan it out.
Jamie Anderson says
SEW ME!! I put myself at a 2…I’m learning and could learn faster with that beauty!!
Lisa Miranda says
Sew me! I’m definitely a 1 or 2 but a nice sewing machine would help me get better :)
sclark says
Sew me . . . around a 5. (I’ve been using a sewing machine for 54 of my 59 years of age, so I should be more accomplished!
Alane says
Sew me! Probably a 3 but I would love to improve
Mark says
SEW ME!! I am a 1–tried to youtube how to sew and still couldn’t manage!
Sonia says
SEW ME!
I need the practice, for sure. I’d say I’m a 4. pick me!!!
Amanda Stuff says
Sew me! I’d say I’m a 5. I’ve got some experience under my belt…but could always use more practice!
Melissa says
SEW ME! I am, without a doubt, a 1!
Jake's a Girl says
I could Sew Me something good with this new machine! My old Singer is from the 70’s.
Soleil says
Sew me! I’m around a 3 or 4.
Cassie says
“SEW ME!”
I would say maybe a 6 or 7 :)
