PRIZE #1:  A Brand New Sewing Machine From Baby Lock (see we told you these prizes were awesomeness!!!)

This sewing machine is a Rachel….and she is fabulous.  I’ve sewn on a Baby Lock Rachel numerous times and it runs like a dream.  It has an easy to load, drop in, bobbin, over 50 different stitch selections, a computerized screen, and a built in needle threader that will spoil you rotten.  And I’m envious of whomever is going to win her!!!

As you all know we loooooove Riley Blake Designs (and our first fabric line with them, Four Corners, is due to hit the stores next month!!!  We are soooo excited!) and several of you will be the lucky recipients of fabric bundles from their amazing stash of goodness!

 

PRIZE #3: A 50 Spool Thread Bundle From Coats and Clark

I use this dual duty thread quite a bit and really love it…so I’m particularly envious of whoever wins this prize as well.

 

PRIZE #4:  Two $50 Gift Cards From The Fat Quarter Shop

There are so many fun things to find online at The Fat Quarter Shop!  This place is always a must when it comes to fabric shopping.  (And they have been a Skirting the Issue sponsor all 4 years so thank you Fat Quarter Shop!)
