Up for grabs today is a set of two handmade-by-me potholders, made using Hometown fabric, by Sweetwater for Moda. These are very thick, with two layers of Insul-Bright heat resistant batting, so they would also make great pads for placing hot dishes on the dinner table.

I have a Brother CE-4000. It's not the most impressive machine, but my dad gave it to me for Christmas 3 years ago and it's still chugging along. akmajor (at) gmail (dot) com
What a beautiful blog ... beautiful creations ... it all makes me want to spend quality time with my sweet little Bernina Virtuosa 153.

Such pretty potholders; count me in!
I'm a brand new quilter and just bought a Brother SE-400. I'm still watching the instructional DVD and so haven't actually set it up yet. (I'm a wee bit nervous! LOL)
Hugs,
Pam
I have a Viking 870 and LOVE it!
I love the fabric you used. I'll have to put Sweetwater on my Christmas list. Any way, I use a Brother. It was cheap and does the job. Thanks for the giveaway!

I have a confidence quilter from singer.
Thanks for the giveaway + merry Xmas!
Boy, I always make pot holders for gifts, and so I get tired of them and never make any for myself. I'd love these gorgeous ones you made! :)
Right now I'm sewing on one of those dinky plastic things called the Euro-Pro. I have an awesome antique Singer, but I can't set it up until I can collect its cabinet.
Thanks for the opportunity to win ~

Hi Heather - fabulous potholders and thanks for joining in :) I sew on an Elna Jubilee that was made in 1984 - my mother bought it for me and I love it - I'd love a new machine so I can do fancy stitches etc but I love my elna too much :)
I use a Kenmore. On the back I think it says model number 385 but I don't know where the book is to confirm that. It is very basic, but it works.
Thanks for the chance to win. stephspitzer at gmail dot com
I use a Janome DC 1050 and I love it! It's not fancy, but she's a workhorse!
I love your colorful potholders! I don't sew or own a sewing machine-this is why I admire the craft of people like yourself.

I've got a Singer that is always wanting to start fights. Whenever possible I desert it for my mom's Husqvarna. Maybe it'll learn it's lesson if I don't dignify it with a model number.
Your profile sounds just like mine lol!!! My machine is an ancient Bernina 727. It is a rare flat-bed version of the 730. My Mum bought it 2nd hand in the 1980's and made many a pretty dress for me, including my Holy Communion dress.
I use a Bernina Virtuosa. It was the best Bernina I could afford, and I am pretty happy with it. I also have a Babylock serger which i LOVE and an older basic Babylock machine.
Oooo so pretty! I use a singer confidence quilter.
Very cute potholders! I have a Husquvarna machine. I absolutely love it!
i actually have two...i have a lovely vintage singer featherweight, black in a wonderful travel case...she is really good for straight line piecing...and a newer singer model9858...that i am still learning how to use!
i have been meaning to make some new potholders!! mine are so worn out. these are beautiful...thank you for the opportunity to win!!

I started on a kenmore 19 years ago- still have it and use it for teaching purposes. I also have a Europro that I love from about 6 years ago and my newest is a Singer Stylist II, I believe. I love all of them. :-) But my Singer serger is a life saver as well!
i have a janome. i love the fabric on your potholders!

Thanks Heather for your generous giveaway offer. I have an Elna 500 machine that I bought many years ago when making items for a craft shop. It is alsolutely reliable and has just been in use again to make an applique wall hanging for my grandson. I also have my mother's Singer machine and an old treadle machine, but they are both keepsakes.
Happy Christmas to you and yours

Hi Heather and thanks for the giveaway! I have a Designer 1 by Husqvarna and I looooooove it! I bought it used about 5 years ago.
I have just a Kenmore sewing machine that my parents gave me when I graduated from college 6 years ago. I always think it isn't going to last since it isn't a "good" brand, but it chugs along doing great!

I use a basic Brother. I bought it from Overstock one christmas cause I thought I might like to try sewing, but didn't want to invest too much in it in case I hate it. Well, I love it and it's been a couple years so I'm anxious to upgrade my sewing machine after christmas.
I have a simple Kenmore sewing machine! Newbie sewist here!
I am a proud new owner of a John Lewis 110 limited edition-it's bright purple. It's my first machine that I actually own so I'm pretty pleased with it.
An old Kenmore that needs to be serviced.
I use a Brother, but I wouldn't recommend it. I can't wait to get a new Bernina!
I have a three year old Juki HZL-e80 and it was a fabulous upgrade after my grandma's 1970 Singer Stylist.
I have a Saivod Superstar 206. Not the best one but it works well so far.
Good lucky and happy hollidays to everyone all the way from Madrid, Spain :)
