***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…

Anna says
SEW ME!! i am a 1 but I would LOVE to be better
Sasha says
SEW ME! I suppose that I’m a 2 and could sew something that resembles a bag… It might even be usable ;)
Jessica H says
SEW ME!!! I’m a beginner level… probably 2-3 and don’t have my own sewing machine, but would love to win this Singer!
Kim H. says
SEW ME! I am a one but this machine could change that!
Cheryl says
SEW ME!
Definitely a 1 right now, but I’d love to learn together with my little daughter.
Leslie R. says
SEW ME!
I’m probably a 8 – 9. I teach beginning sewing, I write patterns, I blog about sewing. I would love to give this machine to a friend who has 4 daughters. I know it would really bless her.
Mary @ Ms Redo says
SEW ME! I’ve been sewing since ahem, the 1960s, yes there really were hippies back then … and since that time I have had some good experiences sewing and some bad experiences sewing but no matter what kind of experience sewing I have had it’s never as bad as my high school best friend sewing through her finger in home economics class, yes it’s true. She lived to tell it and in fact lived to make her living sewing things to sell at Big Craft Fairs. She’s an overcomer and I need the new machine because mine is, like, nearly from the 60s and on top of that it’s really ugly. So, yeah, thanks, guys!
Emily says
Sew Me! Maybe a 2? I can sew straight lines, but if anything starts to curve, I start to sweat…
Taryn says
SEW ME!
I’d say I have the skills on a 1.5 level but the passions on a 10 level! I want to sew so bad!
karenina says
Sew me! I’m probably a 3 :D
Viv says
Sew me! I’d say I’m a 2…I am actually looking into a new machine, so the timing is perfect!
Elizabeth says
SEW ME!
I’m with Sherry at about a 3 on the sewign skill scale.
With lots of trial and error I have managed to made a few costumes for my Pug dog for different family events. But it’s all “figure it out as I go” and I don’t know how to hem pants at all.
Elizabeth says
Note the previous comment should read “sewing scale” not “sewign”. Ah the importance or proofing before you post!
C. Schnuelle says
SEW ME! I am probably a 7, been sewing for many years both clothes and draperies, but with my job haven’t been able to sew as much as I would like lately. New machine would spark my interest though!
Tina says
SEW ME! I THINK I can sew (in my head it makes sense) and then things always go wrong. I blame my 70s hand-me-down machine, so I’d LOVE to win this. So maybe I’m a 2 with dreams to be 5.
Jessica says
SEW ME!
I once sewed my pants to the skirt I was making so I have some work to do. . .
Alexa says
SEW ME!
Much to my mother and grandmother’s disappointment, I’m about a 1.5. Hoping to win this little guy and redeem myself!
Jesse says
SEW ME!
I think I’m a 2. I can do pillows, hems, and maybe a button hole or two on my good days.
Elizabeth Knight says
SEW ME!!!! I want to sew more than seems and cat in the hat hats!
Carrie says
SEW ME
Definitely a 1 here! I took a sewing class many MANY years ago and have always wanted to try again but don’t have a machine. Looks like a great one to re-learn on.
Lex says
SEW ME!
I’m perhaps a 4? Anywhere from a 3.7 to a 4.5…ish. Would love this machine!
Leah S says
SEW ME! I’m a solid 2, but have high hopes to get up to a 5-6 some day!
Mary says
Sew me! I’m a 3 just like Sherry!
Maggie says
SEW ME! I’d say I’m a 2… maybe? I’ve used one, kinda have an idea how things work but, it’s been awhile! This would ALL change if I won though! I’d would so very much love an opportunity to become experienced! Thanks for the opportunity guys!
Sarah says
Sew me! I am probably in the area of a 3, like Sherry. I took lessons years ago but no longer have my own machine.
toby says
sew me!
i’m probably a 4, it’s been a a while…
Chelsie says
SEW ME!
I’m a 5, I guess. I’m currently making seat cushions for our breakfast room chairs.
Elaine R says
Sew Me!
I’d say I’m a 6.5. Ive sewn quite a bit but my skills could still use some work.
Rachael says
SEW ME! I’m a 1 as well, but I would love to learn!! You guys are awesome!
Meghan Sawdon says
SEW ME! I’m about a zero! I can’t even sew on a button…but I’ve been wanting to learn!
Kim says
SEW ME!
If I had to sew today I’d be a 1 … but I feel like I could get back to a 3 or 4 after a few hours back on a machine!
Karma says
SEW ME!
I’m a 5 or so…
erin r says

Sew Me! I’m a 1 for sure! My sewing machine is my grandmother’s I believe it is from the 60’s!
Tif says
SEW ME! I’m probably a 5. Not too shabby, but I’m not going to be sewing anything award winning.
Lydia says
SEW ME! Totally a 1
Vicki says
SEW ME!!!
I’m a 1, maybe a 2 on a good day.
Nicole R says
SEW ME! I am a one, because I have never touched a sewing machine, but I come from a long line of excellent sewers and don’t want to keep letting the family down!!
Melissa says
SEW ME!
Probably a 2, but we got fabric from U-Fab when we visited Richmond (thanks YHL for the great recommendation!) and I am determined to make curtains for our new place.
Kathleen Britton says
SEW ME!! I’d say I’m in the 4-5 range – can sew simple stuff fairly well, but things like setting sleeves are beyond me :)
Leigh says
Sew Me! I would say a 3 or 4 – still alot to learn!
Gail says
Sew me. I’m a 7.6.
Lora says
SEW ME!!
I am a 3 if it is a straight line that no one sees I am great… I am working on my skills and taking lessons from a friend! :)
Kim says
SEW ME!!! I’m probably a 2…if I can figure out how to get the silly thing threaded I might be able to make something semi-functional!
Erin Gallagher says
Frame me.. I’m a one! I need to learn, I have no curtains!
Jenny says
SEW ME!
I’m probably about a 3 but I’m looking to improve!
Kristina says
SEW ME!
I’m a solid 2.5. Good enough to not accidentally stab my fingers with the needle when making a slightly uneven pillow case.
Dili says
SEW ME! I may be less than a 1 if that’s even possible, but I’ve always wanted to own a sewing machine because my gut tells me I could end up being a 10 within a few tries.
Mrs. LIAYF says
I would LOVE to have this machine! Wonder if it has a pirate stitch for boy clothes?? :)
Meghan says
I’m about a five. I can do some basic stuff, but always try to do something little bigger than I did the last time!
Carolina says
Sew Me!
