    GASP!!! My daughter would LOVE to have this!! She's 9 and already knows how to use "Moms" sewing machine but doesn't have one of her very own that she can freely use to create whatever when she chooses. I tend to hog my machine with in progress projects where I've paused in mid stitch.
    Thanks for the opportunity! Yay! Good luck to everyone!

    I must say i love that you make following you on other formats optional (but I already follow you on facebook) a lot of people don't have instagram or twitter.

    I lost my first sewing machine years ago moving around. And now that I have 4 kids I've yet to have the money set aside to purchase one. So that's my motivation for entering!!!

    I would LOVE to win this sewing machine. After stumbling upon your site and oogling over all the cute fashion you've created, I have taken a liking to sewing and have been searching the world for an affordable sewing machine. I'm tempted to purchase the $20 Michley Sew & Sew at Walmart due to affordability and to get my feet wet. However, I know nothing compares to a "real" sewing machine. Unfortunately as the mother of 3 boys in a world of pay cuts and sequestration I have to prioritize and usually put my needs/wants before theirs. Still I come to your site for an inspiration on how to style the clothes I do have and one day to purchase your tutorials so that I can make my own. First on my list is an obi belt and the maxi skirt with the sash! I can't wait. Good luck everyone!

    I would LOVE to win this machine. I'm 41. I've always wanted to learn to sew but never took the time to learn. When I turned 40, I put it on my bucket list and still didn't pursue it...until I stumbled upon Mimi G. This blog was the spark that lit the match that is turning in to a roaring flame! I can't stop thinking, talking, and breathing sewing. I only wish I had not wasted 40 years before getting started.

    Wow! Such a generous gift. I would love to get back into sewing. My Granny loved to sew and I remember cutting out patterns with her (she used brown paper bags) to make hand made quilts. I still have two that she made for me. The family members who also have them are all guarding them since she passed away about 10 years ago.

    Win or not, thanks for taking memory lane on this post.

    I was born in Suriname by faith, brought to the Netherlands by my parents and ended up in USA because of love. My journey has been challenging, difficult, exciting and wonderful. I've had to say goodbye more times to friends and family than I wanted. Nevertheless it has been worth it because I found my soul mate. Another exciting journey awaits me and this time with a compagnon.
    It was literally 7 months ago that I left my friends and family. I've packed 3 suitcases, one with all my favorite clothes, one with shoes and books and one with as much of my art supplies I could fit in the suitcase. As some of us may know how challenging it can be to adapt to a new environment, find new friends and speak a language that is not the same as you dream in. Art has been my friend, my psychologist, my teacher, my outlet and my sanity at times.
    In conclusion, like Jenell and Mimi, art is not only a hobby or something to kill time with. IT'S A WAY TO LET OUR SOUL BE IN THE PUREST AND MOST DIVINE MOMENT AS CAN BE!

    I would love to win this sewing machine. My mom sewed and made her own clothing when she was younger and I want to do the same. My mother gave me her old sewing machine, but I ended up paying it forward to someone who needed it as a means of making an income, but couldn't afford to buy a new one when her's broke. Winning this giveaway would be a blessing for me!

    Oh, Mimi! This is such a wonderful giveaway. I would love to have this machine. I'm a student and I am interested in making my own clothes, but I really can't afford to pay for a decent machine. I had bought one off of eBay which fell apart and the seller disappeared, so that didn't end so well. I'd love to have this.
    But whoever wins it is SO lucky!
    Thank you Mimi for your kindness. You are wonderful, God bless you :) x

    I'm wasn't sure of my chances of winning but I decided to give it a shot. Years ago, my grandmother did a LOT of sewing. She would sew anything from suits, dresses, quilts, curtains, etc..the list goes on and on. I remember when I was a little girl she would set my little chair next to hers so I could watch her sew. She had the old wooden sewing machine with the peddle at the bottom (throw back)!! She taught me a lot, and showed me tricks for quick fixes. I began sewing myself...She helped me sew my first dress. It came out pretty good..calf lengthed denim dress. I wore that dress to death! LoL..Overtime..with school and working I lost my touch..and my grandmother started developing dementia symptoms. Eventually, she was diagnosed with Alzheimers and about 6 years later she passed away. Before, I had thought to ask for her sewing machine, my grandfather had already given it away to her closest friend. After her birthday this past November, I really have a desire to do what she and myelf loved to do best: SEW! Even, if I am not chosen, it felt good to just share my story. Sorry that it was a long one.. :) Peace & Blessings!

My machine is so crazy I can sew on heavy fabrics but not light ones. It would be great to be able to actually sew the projects and use the materials I've purchased.

    Awesome giveaway! I've been wanting to purchase a sewing machine for a while and it's on my bucket list for this year to get one. I would love to win! Thanks so much for the chance!
