Win a Janome 6600 NOW

TIME'S UP. WINNER OF THE JANOME 6600 SEWING MACHINE WILL BE ANNOUNCED TOMORROW. GOOD LUCK TO EACH AND EVERYONE OF YOU.

So this is it. The moment you all have been waiting for. I'd like to think that the quilt along and all the giveaways along the way have been fun. And educational. And worthwhile. But let's face it. They don't mean squat in comparison to this.

I know things people. I've been to college. And around the block a time or two.

I've got my finger on the pulse of the human spirit.








You have been waiting for the mac daddy. And today is the day.




Leave a comment to this post for your chance to win the miraculous Janome 6600.


It is fantastically amazing. I love it so much that I missed it while on vacation. For real.

Some of my favorite features are:

-- the independent motor for bobbin winding
-- speed control lever
-- the start/stop button
-- the almighty automatic thread cutter!!! (can't I get a Amen on that one?)
-- extra high pressure foot lift
-- knee lift!!

Oh. I. Could. Go. On. For. Days.

What? You don't want me to go on for days? Hmmm.

Ok. Well, let me just summarize by saying that I love the Janome 6600 because it allows me to make quilts with absolute ease. Like this.




::Deep cleansing breath::





Leave a comment to this post for a chance to win the Janome 6600. Only one comment per person. International entries welcome. Contest will run from now (June 29, 2009) until next Monday, July 6, 2009 at 6:00pm EDST US. A winner will be announced on Tuesday, July 7th.

Good luck!

I'm sure this is only 1-in-thousands of a chance of winning, but better than 0, right?!?! I'm sad I didn't find the quilt along before, but now I have grand plans. And wouldn't it be great if I won the 6600!

I bought my wife a Janomme sewing machine for a Christmas present 7 years ago so that she could begin her passion for quilting. She still uses it and loves to quilt. Most all of the quilts she makes are for family and friends. It would be nice if she could win this much nicer sewing machine.

To replace the old Kenmore, I'd be in heaven. Please enter my name in the draw. Susan

skatey katie said...

anyway, please draw katie X

Betty from North Georgia said...

I really like the idea of a quilt-along. I'm a relatively new quilter but have been sewing for years. I've gotten a lot of ideas from your blog and those that you link to. Thanks. I'd love a new sewing machine - my old one works, but there are so many things that it just can't do. I'll keep hoping.

Esther said...

Thank you for a wonderful set of tutorials. I am hoping to finish a quilt using them but I don't think it will be this week, I need to finish a costume for my five year old to go live roleplaying with his dad for this weekend first! Fingers crossed for the competition of course too!

RaDonna said...

Thanks for all the tutorials. As a "non-sewer", I need all the help I can get. I do manage to bumble my way through and turn out some half-way decent projects!

Just trying my luck, it would be the greatest birthday surprise should I win...

Jenn said...

Dana, can't believe you're giving away such an awesome prize. I truly have NEVER won a quilter's giveaway so this would be, yes, the "mac daddy" for me, too! So, please put my name in the hat and I'll be praying for a miracle! I truly enjoyed the quilt along and hope to use the pattern and all the ideas that everyone shared to do another and another and another quilt!!! Thanks again for this and for such a generous spirit that you possess~

This experience has been so much more than the possibility of winning a sewing maching - reflect the legacy of past quilters in providing a virtual quilting bee with the sharing of challenges, tips, and friendship. Thank you.

secondofwett said...

It would be a dream come true to be able to sew on a Janome ...I will never be able to afford such a beautiful machine.

I'm leaving this comment in hopes that my wife will win this machine. Within the past year, she has taught herself to sew and has discovered a new love in the process. My daughter and my dog have been the target of her wonderful projects and we hope to see this joy continue with her.

Dresden Quilter said...

I have a Janome and I really love it. It does not have all of those bells and whistles though. Thank you very much for all of your work on the quilt along. It has been very much appreciated.

Petit Design Co. said...

Wow, almost 700 entries, and more sure to come. The odds of winning are 1 in ? LOL

I love my Kenmore(made by Janome) so I already know that this machine and I would get along perfectly! Thanks for the journey, it's been fun reading your blog. I think I'll be making one of your quilts whenever I get my sewing room unpacked!

jannza said...

Wow, lots of hopefuls out there! I can't imagine winning a sewing machine and a darn amazing one at that!

I have loved the tutorial/sew-along and have learned lots. It was also very motivational and perfect timing for me. The fabric choices were inspirational too! Isn't it wonderful to see selections together?

Thanks for helping us so much with the step-by-step process. The many photos make me feel as though I'm right there.

My sewing area is cleaned and ready for that new machine! : )

Anonymous said...

I'd love to win this as my current machine doesn't allow me to do any machine quilting and I've got a backlog of projects to finish and many more to start (the quilt along quilt is in this category but the fabric has already been purchased). Please! (janet.salonen@pp.inet.fi)

Oh Geez and I just barely got all of my squares sewn together. thanks for the quilt along it has been a blast! I can't wait to quilt some more.

Linda Stewart said...

With the Janome 6600 I may actually be able to enjoy sewing again. It has gotten to be a chore I don't enjoy very much. Old machine = Not a whole lot of fun!

Karen Annette said...

I would love to win this!! My mother gave me her old sewing machine which broke and now I'm using my 13 year old daughter's machine which her great grandmother gave her, so I could really use a new one. The quilt along has been fun. I still have to send mine to the quilters. Thanks for the chance to win.

What I could do with a machine like this. {sigh} My current machine is very basic -- it doesn't even do a blanket stitch!! I hope I win, but if I don't, I have enjoyed the quilt along.

Dawn said...

I hope I have luck :) Either way, I got two beautiful quilts out of the quilt-a-long so I a definitely a winner!! Thanks, Dawn

Deb C. said...

Wow. I guess that means the quilt-a-long has come to an end? It's bittersweet. I absolutely love the featues of this machine. Especially the even feed walking foot. Oh and the knee lift bar. And the automatic thread cutter. And the fact that it's a Janome. What could be better? Me winning the drawing for it!!!!

Oh, Dana, thank you for such a wonderful giveaway! I've had so much fun making your quilt - I used fabric I'd never have bought on my own, won free long-arm quilting and have enjoyed seeing all of the different versions. Thank you! But even though I've had so much fun, I still want to win the sewing machine!

Emily Gusba said...

WOW. I would LOVE to win that! Thanks for the chance!

Kerry said...

Oh my goodness! The time has actually come! The anticipation has been building slowly since week 1!!! It's been a lot of fun and I would do it all over again...perhaps with a new Janome????

Natalie said...

Pick me, pick me! Then I would be able to finish the quilt along. Unfortunately, my trusty Kenmore isn't cooperating lately and I would desperately love to upgrade.

Mariesa M. said...

I really really really want to win. My whole family knows how bad I want to win :-) I've been using my grandmas old sewing machine for the last 10 years and I think I've about killed it. Please pick me because I could really use a fancy new sewing machine!

Kyra said...

NicNacManiac said...

Oh my gosh, I have just discovered you from Paula Prass's blog and I am sad that I did not do it 6 weeks ago....the opportunity to win that Janome.....to die for!!
Just re-entering the quilting world after about 10 years and this would be the icing on the cake. Fingers & Toes crossed!!!
Thanks so much and enjoy the rest of your day!!
Hugs, Nerina :)

Lisa J said...

Thank you for the chance to win such a wonderful machine. I hope you do another quilt along soon!

Thanks~

Zeynep said...

Thanks for the quilt-a-long and great instructions. My flight of fancy quilt is off to long arm quilter and I am piecing the second top. I will have two beautiful quilts so I am already a winner! Although all you need for quilting is a straight stitch sewing machine which you can get decent 1/4" stitch. I would love to have a new sewing machine with all those desirable features that makes sewing more enjoyable( less frustrating) and more productive. I hope I win, if I do not:( I hope someone who really needs it and will use regularly wins :)

Dana, Thanks so much for this quilt along. I've been having the best time with my two girlfriends making my first quilt. Your instructions were so easy to follow, I never felt scared! My quilt turned out to be way bigger than I had expected and quilting the top is like wrestling a bear!!! Too much fun, can't wait to make another! ~Tara

My daughters and I have really enjoyed the quilt along. All 5, ages 8 to 15, have had a blast working with this pattern.
Thanks, Dana!

I imagine myself almost feeling bad if I actually win this machine and deprive someone else of it, but not enough not to comment. My wife and I would use and love a machine like this!
