***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…

Sharon says
SEW ME!!
I’d rate myself an 8. I know my way around a sewing machine
but mine is dying a slow death! Singer is definately top of my list!
Sam says
SEW ME!!
I’m probably a 6-7. I’m big into quilting and I make my own cloth diapers and the occasional piece of clothing. Would love an awesome sewing machine like this!!
Heather says
SEW ME!
I think I’m a 5 or a 6, but am a bit rusty since my OLD Singer has been giving me lots of attitude and I have banished her to time out for the past year or so.
Joan says
SEW ME!
I’m a slightly mushy 2. My bag would be beyond wonky, but I could manage the basic outline. And picking the fabric.
Tiffany B says
SEW ME!! yay for international shipping:)
Frau Kleinkariert says
SEW ME!
I would say I’m a 5, sewing bags and small dolls for family and friends!
Coby says
SEW ME!
I can’t sew at all, but I would love to learn!
Kaylee says
SEW ME….I am a 1 but that is why I need it so I can improve!! :)
Tara M. says
SEW ME! I am probably a 5 – not great, but I’ve got the basics down.
Katie Lee says
Sew Me! I grew up learning to sew from my grandma. I feel like I am about a 5 because I have the basic skills, but can’t do anything cool. I’d love to get back into it though.
Fran says
SEW ME!!!! I am a struggling 7.
A says
SEW ME! A…4? I hem my own pants by hand!
Payal says
SEW ME!!
I would say I’m about a 2. Have been thinking to learn and improve so I can make some dresses for my daughters.
emily e says
SEW ME!
erin mcdonough says
SEW ME!
A 3! My mom made me so an outfit in grade 6. I even had to wear it to school! I love tackling little projects for the kids!
Kathy says
Sew me!
Jamie H says
Sew me! l’ll call myself a six.I’ve made a few presentable things but I’m no pro.
drew says
Sew me
I’m a 0. This would make a great Christmas present for my sister.
Emily m says
Sew me! Im probably a 3. Barely.
Jessica says
SEW ME!
I’m about a 2 but SO wanting to reach a 7 (don’t want to set my hopes too high)!
Ana from Portugal says
Oh, please Sew Me!!
I’m a cute 6 when it comes to sewing, but I have no personnal sewing machine! Everytime I want/need to sew something, I have to go to my mother or mother-in-law’s, and that kinda sucks!!
Kudos, Young House Lovers!!
Jamie says
SEW ME! Can you rank yourself in the negative numbers?? Even the picture looks scary to me but what better way to learn something completely new?
robin says
SEW ME!!!
Im a 1 but want desperately to learn how to sew. I’ve been hoarding fabric with the intent to sew for a few years now.
Courtney says
SEW ME!
I’d say probably a 3. I can sew a straight line and follow directions. ;)
Rebecca M says
SEW ME!!
I would say I’m about a 4 – my mother used to try and teach me to sew, but I didn’t have the patience for it when I was younger. Could definitely use a new machine, mine was made in 1983 :)
Katie says
Sew me! And I’m most likely a 2… I doubt my ability to make a (wonky or otherwise) bag, but I could maybe get a pillowcase taken care of. I’d love to be better, though!
Melissa W. says
“SEW ME!”
1-I need lessons for sure! A new sewing machine would be a great tool to motivate me to learn!
Jill Stevens says
SEW ME!!!
I would say I am a 4-5. I avoid zippers, but if I tried hard I could put them in. I have made pillows for kids, curtains. And way back in the past a few dresses. Patterns still confuse me if they have to many terms that are for real sew-ers. Would love to update my old heavy sewing machine
Jessica says
SEW ME!!!
I used to be a 4…but after a few years of no machine, I’m probably a 1 or 2 now haha
Jamie says
SEW ME!
I’ve hijacked my mom’s because I’m really starting to enjoy sewing. It helps to have a 15 month old to sew for :)
Lisa says
SEW ME! I’d put myself at about a 3 – when sewing by hand! The whole machine thing always screws me up, which is why one that is supposedly easy to use is very compelling. My bare windows are calling!
kristen says
“SEW ME!”
I AM A 1, ALTHOUGH I TOOK SEWING IN HIGH SCHOOL.
Liz says
SEW ME! I’d say 1 or zero!
Erica says
SEW ME! I’m totally a 1, and probably couldn’t sew my way out of a bag. :)
Mindie Felcher says
Sew me!
I am definately a 3…can sew a straight line and cut a pattern, but am dying to learn more!
Christina says
SEW ME! I’m a 1 but I want to get better and I need a sewing machine to do that! With a baby on the way, there are so many cute projects I want to tackle… and no way to do it currently. This would be AWESOME!
Kristen says
SEW ME!
I definitely have zero ability, I want to learn though! I feel like I could make so many things if I had an actual sewing machine
nancy@owensolivia says
SEW ME PLEASE!!!!!!! I would rank myself around 6 or 7. Great giveaway!! Thank you!
Leah says
SEW ME!
I’m a one on the sewing skill continuum, or a zero if that’s even possible.
Jennelle says
SEW ME!
I am most definitely a 1. I tried to sew a cushion for my baby’s nursery, and ended up sewing the fabric…to the sewing machine. But I would love to learn!
Joann says
SEW ME! I am a 1 at BEST! SO wish I were more talented in this area!
Jenny says
SEW ME!!!
I’m a 7 or 8!
Krista says
SEW ME!
I’d probably rate myself at a 4. I’ve made an apron, a purse, and curtains. I’ve found that I’m pretty successful if I’m following a tutorial with pictures and lots of explanation. I bet I could make my way to a 5 with a fancy new sewing machine!
Jenny says
Sew me! I’m probably about a 2. Can do straight lines!
angie says
sew me!
Eliana W. says
SEW ME!
I’m probably a 1. I learned in Home Ec class but haven’t touched a machine since then. I’m eager to relearn, but the start-up costs are holding me back.
Sabrina says
SEW ME! I’m a 1.5 I can’t imagine making a quilt or a table runner but I just turned on my mother in laws sewing machine after 3 years and made 3 perfectly unperfect stockings!
Stephanie Joy says
SEW ME! I’m probably a 2 or 3 – definitely the wonky bag level:)
Melinda says
SEW ME!
Ms. R says
SEW ME!
Maybe a 4, just a step up from Sherry… :)
