This week's prize is packed with our favorite products from our quilting and sewing table.
It includes:
From The Daylight Company: The Slimline Lamp Table. Seriously, you all are going to love this lamp. We have three of them now and use them at our sewing machine, on our work stations, and even one as a piano light. The name says it all… the Slimline design with the double gooseneck puts the light exactly where you need it without obstructing your line of sight. Flawless!
From Aurifil: A selection of 50wt cotton sewing thread. It is no secret we LOVE our Aurifil thread. The perfect twist and the no-pill, no-fuzz thread makes this a smoooooooth dream to work with. No snags. No snarls. Wait till you work with this 50 wt cotton on your machine or handsewing projects. You'll be spoiled for anything else.
From Soak: A 8.4 fl oz bottle of Flatter Spray in the Celebration fragrance. Yes, you've seen our video about this product. This is the product that got Shannon to actually iron! Yup… don't faint…
and from Clover... a FAB sewing package that includes some of our MUST HAVE products right from our sewing and quilting supplies:
Wonderfuse, roll and press roller (keep this by our side and flatten your seams out for faster, easier sewing, Wonder Clips (LOVE LOVE LOVE how versatile these little tools are), the Clover Wedge Iron (the perfect size for your sewing table to press seams and get back to sewing fast), Hot Ruler (a personal favorite to give us accurate and speedy hems and edging), Supersize 5-in-1 Sliding Gauge, and the brand new Ultimate Quilt 'n Stitch Presser Foot.

It’s that time of year when some of us turn our thoughts to giving those we care about some token of our affection… a symbol of good tidings and cheer that let’s others know we have been thinking about them and want to give them something that let’s them know we appreciate them. Yup… ‘tis the season of giving and y’all know how much we love a good giveaway. In fact, if you have ever taken one of our classes, you know we have some very generous classroom product sponsors and studio sponsors who allow us to do what we do AND give away some FAB prizes in the process. As we come down to the end of 2018, we have gotten together with our promotional partners and sponsors to create a giveaway to show you all just how much we appreciate all of you. 2018 has been a year of incredible growth for the Shibaguyz as designers, teachers, and artists… and you all have been there with us through it all cheering us on and motivating us to always do better and inspiring us to create.

Shortly before we became paid ambassadors for Soak we tried Flatter Smoothing Spray for the first time... we were impressed to say the least. Imagine an ironing assistant that is starch free, biodegradable, and actually smells great (you’ll see Our favorite in the video). Oh, it also actually works! It's flat-out fabulous! See what we did there? Flat? Flatter? *ahem* Moving on…

We decided to show Flatter in action so you could see for yourselves why we like it. And, yes, this really is the only thing that can make Shannon do the ironing. Watch and you’ll see why…

Flatter Smoothing Spray is available from selected retailers locally or online. You can go to soakwash.com to see a list of retailers in your area. Special thanks to the folks at Soak for providing us with their products for our studio and for this review!

Stitch On!
​S&J

We have a lot of handmade items... I mean, a LOT. Many of these are able to be washed in our washing machine - some on regular, others on hand wash or delicate cycles. Others need a little more care. Heirloom quilts, boro'd bags & jackets, and crochet and knit garments and accessories fall into the second category. In fact, the garment you are going to see us cleaning in this video is very special to us… you'll see why in the video.

We get asked the question often by readers and students: "How do I clean my handmade items?" So, we decided to make a quick video to show you how we do it here in the studio... with Soak Wash, a rinse-free wash that comes in a lot of FAB fragrances as well as scentless. We certainly have OUR favorite scents… mmmmm… pineapples…
