Young House Love » Giveaways » Fab Freebie: On Your Mark, Get Set, Sew!

| By John Petersik | October 14, 2013 | 95 Comments

Fab Freebie: On Your Mark, Get Set, Sew!

With last week’s fabric-filled giveaway still on our brains, we thought you could use something to turn random swatches of fabric into something awesome this week. Enter the Singer Vivo sewing machine, stage left. It’s conveniently compact, and it’s made with non-sewers in mind – so it’s for any do-it-yourselfers and crafters who are looking to knock out projects (like this embellished dishtowel tutorial) without having to lug out a bulky machine or pore over an instruction manual. And to make your new life as a sewing ninja even easier, they’re also throwing in some scissors and a thread kit for a total prize package of over $300.

Singer Sewing Machine Giveaway

Please use the Rafflecopter widget below to enter (it might take a second to load, but it should eventually pop up below this paragraph). This giveaway is available worldwide!

    Hi guys :) Just wanted you to know that I’ve been hitting the “younghouselove” pretty hard over here in CO. Read your book (cover to cover!) in one day and have been searching your archives for inspiration for our lil’ 1970 abode. Had to stop by to say thank you! P.S. do you ever help any “reader submissions?!” I’d MELT for any suggestions on projects I’m totally stuck on. (But that’s like asking if Mickey Mouse could make a personal appearance at my daughter’s birthday, so it’s just a shot in the dark). Mostly, thank you for what you do!!!

      Haha, you’re so sweet Mackenzie! Thanks so much! As for reader submissions, we love checking them out on Facebook (where you can share a pic and ask a question, which we try to answer as much as we can) and we also have Forums for you to upload pics and ask for advice over there! Hope it helps!

    Man, this is perfect timing! My mom just showed me how to sew last week, on my grandmothers HEAVY old machine. It works good and I’m excited to finally be able to do all the cute little projects I see, but a new machine would definitely be great! :)

    What a great little giveaway pack! Sewing runs in my family and I need to pick up on where my sewing lessons left off. Grandma has a big old metal Singer/table at home in Taiwan. It would be great if I could sew her something!

    I have tried to enter several times but keep getting the error message “Aw, shucks. We didn’t get your entry. Plz try again”. Has anyone else had this problem?

      Boo! We have never heard of that issue! Does the box say 0/1 entries for you? If it says 1/1 then one already went through and since we only allow one entry per person your future entries would get bounced out. If it says 0/1 but just keeps erroring, maybe try using a smart phone or your home computer if you’re at work (maybe some virus-blocking software on your computer is messing with your entry?).

    Wow, how cute is that machine, I’m wishing on the raindrops outside my window that I/we win. My 11-year-old daughter has been asking to learn to sew. This would make her/us very happy.

    Thank you for offering.

    This may seem like a crazy question but I am confused at how to navigate your YHL site. I am looking to see what and how yall paint baseboards, the color etc, or how you talk about how to spray paint. Any advice would be great – even from subscribers. :)

      You can use the search bar under the first ad on the right of our sidebar to find posts with specific words, or you can click the projects tab under our header and check out the painting category. As for baseboards, we use semi gloss paint in white (here we have liked Simply White by BM best). And there are spray painting tips on our projects page for ya. Hope it helps!

      She actually already got an email and commented as well, so if you don’t get an email that’s one sign. You can also check the comments to see if someone else has won. Also entering with a less common name (JenniferYO) might help you know if it’s you faster :)
