Free Sewing Patterns: Simple Projects for Beginners

***This giveaway is now closed – see who won below!***

After more than 10,000 entries in under 24 hours, we’ve randomly selected a winner for the SINGER One sewing machine. The lucky reader is… Angela (who rates her sewing skills a 1: “I can sew a straight line, but only if someone threads the machine for me first”). Congratulations!

I’ve never used a sewing machine myself, but I’ve heard Sherry’s enthusiastic muttering from the next room while she sews. Anything billed as “our easiest to use machine” sounds appealing, and we’re thrilled that Singer is letting us give away a SINGER One — a fully featured machine that retails for around $499. Features like an Automatic Needle Threader and OneTouch stitch selection make this model feel approachable. With 24 stitch patterns included, even beginners can create projects that look polished. Singer will also ship this prize internationally.
