Overview

To sew or not to sew, that is the question. The answer? Definitely to sew for the Sew Cool Contest! Dust off your sewing machine and thread your sewing needle; wherever your talents lie, now is the time to show them off! Bring needle to thread for practical purposes or just for fun; all’s fair in sewing and stitchery.

The finest sewists will be winning a Janome 8002D Serger, a swatch book, or pinking shears. Too many ideas with no clue how to bring your fabric concepts to fruition? Check out our Sewing Classes to learn how to use a sewing machine, hand sew, and more!

The Sew Cool Contest is closed.
