Happy 4000! Here’s to many more!
Wow! What a generous assortment of prizes.
This is awesome! Thanks from Plainfield IL!
Congratulations! What an amazing list of gifts!
Oh gosh, Maddie, this is a badass giveaway. As you you know, we have had some badass storms lately, here in TN. Two weeks ago, our house got hit by lightening – took a chunk of the foundation out and fried my sewing machine. Down south, y’all, we really like our chicken fried, not our sewing machines! I am crossing my fingers for one of the Berninas!!!
Congrats Maddie on reaching over 4000 members. I just lost my Mom last month and she was the ultimate badass with her awesome machine embroidering. I hope to some day achieve those talents and add them to my love of quilting to be as badass as she was. Thanks for the chance at the ultimate sewing quilting giveaway!
I am excited for you!! Best wishes on Spool and **PICK ME**!!!!
What a great way for quilters to celebrate !! Love your Facebook page too !
Can’t wait for the winner. Your drawings are always so much fun!
Ok…from Hammond, Louisiana

So excited about this contest. Have just joined the group and find it really inspires me!
Love your give-a-ways and the companies involved! I’ve always wanted a Bernina but never could get one. They have the best blanket stitch on their machines and so easy to change stitches! Thanks so much!
