hearth song - review and giveaway

By Jennifer (Double Duty Mommy) at 1:15 PM
I've always loved to sew and my stepmom really got me into it when I was growing up. I don't like sewing by hand so I will avoid it by all cost but hand me a machine and I can make you a mean quilt, lol. Makenna loves watching me and pressing the foot pedel on mine so I decided she needs her own sewing machine, and I found the perfect one!

Hearth Song is a website completely dedicated to making your child's day full of fun, exploration and learning. I love the huge variety of products they sell. From $2 all the way up $1,000 you can definitely find something in your budget and keep your kids entertained during these hot summer months.

Hearth Song sent us the My Little Sewing Machine and we were so excited when it came. I definitely wasn't expecting it to come with so many extras. The machine itself was a little smaller then I thought it would be but it is for little girls so I'm not sure why I thought it would be bigger.
This kit comes with an adorable carrying case, 2 yds. of fabric, ribbon, 4 buttons, thimble, measuring tape, tomato pin cushion, rickrack (that blue wavy thing), felt, 4 bobbins, 4 machine needles, 4 spools of thread, scissors, 40 straight pins and a full color project book with instuctions on how to thread the needle and bobbin!!

This really does look and act like a regular full size adult sewing machine. Easy to use presser foot lever, a bobbin compartment, tension screw, hand wheel and a foot pedel! I love how this gives Makenna the option to use the top thread spindle or just sew directly from the bobbin.

The My Little Sewing Machine even has a setting so you can use the machine to thread empty bobbins again! How cool and easy is that? There is a on/off button on the front of the machine that little hands can use without any help. The other pink button you can slightly see near my finger is to adjust the speed of the machine giving kids full control over their work.

Although adult supervision is suggested your kids will have a blast discovering in the delight of sewing their own clothes and accessories with a machine that's just their size. This tester scrap piece was created using the bobbin -->


For only $59.98 you can give your little girl hours of fun and a great creative outlet!

Win a My Little Sewing Machine for the little sewer in your house!!
