Re: Magazine Giveaway: "Threads" Issue #165 (February/March 2013)

My favorite stitch is buttonhole stitching with silk thread around each buttonhole. It always comes out looking so nice and is always a nice detail to add to a fine garment!

Re: Giveaway: Simplicity Bias Tape Maker

Wow, I HATE making my own bias tape! I've been drooling over this machine since I saw it at JoAnn's a few weeks ago. I've changed my avatar and I really WANT this machine! Oooh, pick me! ; )

Re: Book Giveaway--Ribbon Embroidery: Simple Stitches for Easy Embellishments

I am always looking to add new books to my sewing collection. If I don't win it I'll probably buy it anyway. I have been looking for new inspiration for embellishments and trims. Looks like another great read!
