***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…

Steph says
Sew me! I’m a 3. I took a sewing class in 6th grade (which resulted in a pretty good Halloween costume that year) and have done very little since. Can’t wait to get back into it, though!
Cha says
SEW ME! I’m probably a -1 (does that count?) lol! But I would really like to learn to make those amazing projects I see on pinterest!
Jennifer willis says
sew me! I am maybe a 5 or 6 i have a little bit of clothing and i used to make my own purses in high school
Sarah says
SEW ME!!
I’d say about a 7 … Not too shabby not too chic.
Erika Curry says
Sew me! I just put a sewing machine on my wishlist because I am excited to learn how to sew – seeing all of the awesome crafts and ideas has motivated me to take sewing lessons! Total sewing novice – level 0!
Jessica says
SEW ME!
I am definitely a zero – but my mom is definitely a 10, so I’m hoping to learn from her one day!
Megan says
SEW ME!
I’m about a 2 – better than John but worse than Sherry. I can hem curtains :)
Anna J says
SEW ME! I’d say a 4, though I’m better at handing pins to my mother.
Ashley C. says
Sew me! I’m maybe a 3, but a sewing machine could help me advance!
Kate says
“SEW ME!
I sit at…whatever is below a novice. That’s me!
Kylie Watts says
SEW ME!
I’d say I was a 2. I can sew a passable pillowcase dress for my little 4 year old girl, but definitley room for improvement!
emily says
SEW ME! Learned in home ec in the 5th grade, but haven’t picked it up in a while so probably a 2?
Stephanie says
SEW ME!! I’m about a 5, capable of reading a pattern & putting the pieces together, but every once in awhile the ends turn out a little screwy. Enjoy trying though!
Rachel says
SEW ME! I’m a 3-4 on the sewing spectrum. I can sew, but very unorthodoxish as I am self-taught and stopped learning!
Aubrey says
SEW ME!
I’ve never had a sewing machine but maybe with this one I could become a 10 on the sewing machine skills scale.
Sara R. says
Sew me! I think I’m probably a two. I was able to hand stitch part of my son’s halloween costume and I’m the go-to “sew on the button of everyone’s jacket” person each fall/winter. I think with a sewing machine I would be able to do a whole lot more because hand stitching sure is tough and requires so much patience!
amy says
Sew Me!
I’m about a 3 on the sewing skills scale.
nicole says
Sew me! I’m definitely a 1.
Heather says
Sew me! I am probably a 5. I can follow a pattern, making minor alterations as I go. I make up small projects on my own. I am even teaching my kids how to sew!
Mel Holt says
Sew me! I’m a 1 but know I could become a 3 or higher if I tried :). I sewed an awesome pencil skirt when I was in high school Home Ec. class! Thanks for a chance to win!!!
RLR says
SEW ME! I’m definitely a 1 – I have a Pinterest board titled: “If I could Sew…”
Katie says
SEW ME!
I’m a 1, but ya gotta start somewhere, right?!
Nikki V says
SEW ME! I am most DEFINITELY a one…better yet a zero BUT REALLY want to learn how! ????
Rebecca M. says
SEW ME!
Probably a 3. I can do the basics, but I don’t have the patience (or desire) to do anything more. Really wish I had gotten my mom’s sewing gene!
Sandy A says
“Sew Me” I can sew some–I haven’t had a machine in years–so I would say I am a 4 maybe a 5 on a good sewing day…
Caitlin says
SEW ME!
I am definitely a 1 but it is at the top of my list of skills I want to learn. I do a bit of hand sewing but really want to see what I can do with a machine. Having children has made me want to sew sew sew — I had no idea that would be a side effect!
Lauren says
SEW ME! I’m a 1, would love to get better though :)
Judy Clark says
” SEW ME ”
I would say I am a nine on the sewing scale. I have been sewing since I was seven years old and still love doing it!,
Thanks for the giveaway!

Emily says
SEW ME!!
I’m probably about a 4. I used to be much better when I was younger, but got worse over the years somehow! A new machine would definitely help as mine has seen better days.
Le says
SEW ME!!
Definitely a 1 – no sewing skills whatsoever. But having such a cool machine would definitely get me motivated to take lessons and learn.
Tram says
Sew me!
Lamadre says
sew me! I’d say I’m a 2.
Heather says
Sew me!
I’d say I’m a 3. I’ve made curtains, but most definitely accompanied by some of that ” passionate muttering.”
Jenn says
Sew Me!!
I’m a one…but would really like to change that. I hope to learn enough to start making quilts. This would be perfect :)
Kristen says
Sew Me!
I am a 0..but I WANT to learn SO bad, but first I need a machine!
tina says
SEW ME! I am a 2ish. I have always wanted to learn how to sew more than a laundry bag. This would be great!
Kate says
SEW ME!
My last major sewing project was for my Girl Scout Silver Award in Middle School, and while that was a big undertaking, I don’t think I’ve gone near a sewing machine since then. I’ve been desperately wanting to start again though! So I’d say I’m mid-level :)
Kayla says
SEW ME.
I’m probably a 3, but willing to try and be a 10.
Erin says
SEW ME!
I’m a 3, on a good day. But now that we have a baby, I’m more motivated to improve!
shell li says
SEW ME! I was working on becoming a 2 but, then my old sewing machine broke!
Meredith says
SEW ME! I’d say 5–I sew most every day, but I’m self taught so I don’t do anything the official correct way!
Shannon says
SEW ME!
I am probably a 4, my grandmother taught me when I was little. I usually sew at about a 2 level tho because I am impatient and I am typically sewing curtains nowadays!
Ashley says
SEW ME! I am about a 3ish…i can sort of sew and love it!
Allison B says
SEW ME! I am about a 4 if I’m not distracted! Otherwise, I’m about a 2.5! My mom and I are currently sharing a machine, so I’d love to have one of my very own!
Camille says
SEW ME!!
I’m going to say a 5. I can make things, they aren’t AMAZING, but they are usually pretty decent. I have lots to learn, though. :)
LISA says
SEW ME!!!! I would LURVE this sewing machine! I told my husband I wanted sewing lessons for Christmas, haha, who does that?? Me, that’s who! AND I’d only rate myself a 1, mayyybe a 1.5, but that’s a stretch!
Sarah says
SEW ME! Completed my first sewing project (curtains for my baby boy’s nursery) since 7th grade home ex on my sister’s machine and have officially caught the bug! I’m thinking I’m a 4 since I’m feeling generous ;)
Would be so psyched to have a machine of my own!
Megan Richard says
SEW ME!! I’m a 2! My mom made my sister and I take sewing classes one summer when we were in grade school and we hated it. Now, I really wish we would have taken it more seriously because I would give anything to be able to sew better!
Amelia Hardman says
SEW ME! I am a “1” who is committed to learning this year. I have an old old machine, though. but i saw how many comments there are, so this one I *really* don’t expect to win!
Charlotte says
SEW ME!
I’m about a 2-3 I think – good for rectangles (think pillowcases, tablecloths) but not much more than that. At least not without my mum on standby!
