Even the most casual readers of this site will probably know that I'm a great fan of Bernina sewing machines. I own a few of them including the mighty Bernina B880 Plus which is my workhorse and in my humble opinion the best sewing machine in the world.
We've written a bit about Bernina over the years including the article For Fans of Bernina Sewing Machines (me…)
A few years ago I was lucky enough to have a personalized guided tour of the Bernina sewing machine factory in Steckborn, Switzerland which you can read about below.
More recently, I was fortunate enough to meet the owners of the Bernina company on one of their visits to Singapore.
I say all this to try to set the scene about how excited I am that our sponsors have agreed to giveaway a set of a Bernina Bernette B38 as well as a matching B44 Funlock Overlocker. We're going to give away the B38 first followed by the B44 in a subsequent drawing.
Let's have a look at the Bernette B38

I just found a free pattern on Nancy’s Notions for a “Best Nest Organizer Basket” that would look really good to hang near my sewing machine to hold all the little things that I need close by but clutter up my table. I think this would be adorable made out of this cat fabric. I think it would also make a really cute “Folded shopping bag out of batik” for a gift for my cousin who adores cats. Every time I go to the So Sew Easy Craftsy page, I find a pattern I hadn’t noticed before that I want to make-there aren’t enough hours in the day for me to sew all I want!! What would I make out of this material? Anything I want!!
I just found same pattern yesterday. And you’re right – this fabric would be fabulous for that pattern!
I would make The Colby Bag with this fabric. Thanks!
