I’ll be sharing Nancy’s streamlined sewing methods and tips for over 20 sewing projects. Plus I’ll share a sneak peek at The NZP Team’s next projects! Best of all we’ll be enjoying our love of sewing together.

When not teaching, you’ll find me demonstrating the Nancy Zieman Tools and Notions in the Clover Booth. You’ll also find me hosting meet-and-greets, immediately after each of my classes, in the Quality Sewing & Vacuum booth.

  • Joan Philip
    February 13, 2018

    I have the all green tool that looks like the new one. Is the new one a little different? I would love to attend The Expo as much as I have always wanted to spend time at Nancy’s place. But there are too many “too’s” Too old, too far away, would cost too much. I have enjoyed Nancy’s videos and programs on T.V. over many many years, she was such an inspiration and I learned so much. Where I live now I haven’t been able to get her programs. I was so sorry to learn that she had died.

  • Karen

    The gauge looks interesting.

  • Valerie Thompson
    February 13, 2018

    The Five in One sliding gauge would be a very helpful tool in teaching my nine grandchildren to sew. It would be a special time for us to spend laughing and learning together. I’m excited to see what they would like to create. Thank you for the chance to win. Good luck everyone.

    I watched Nancy’s last show, “I sew for Fun” with my daughter. She is 11. We reminisced about our class together at Nancy’s Notions where she sewed an apron and received her first Baby Lock BL9 machine. I am so blessed to be able to share my loving of sewing with her. This would be a great gift to add to her sewing supplies. Love the color, it looks sew fun!

  • Anna Little
    February 13, 2018

    Not able to go however, would love that gadget – makes sewing a little easier. Have several ladies that come to my place once a week – we sew for the hospital, Women in Crises, & other charity organizations. I have recorded Nancy’s programs for many years and have them on over 30 VHS tapes. Master list everything on the tapes.

  • Sharon Kirry

  • Suzanne
    February 13, 2018

    There’s a sad little hole in my heart with Nancy’s name next to it. But it hurts much less when I see how well you’re carrying on her legacy. God bless and thank you.
    Wish I could be there…maybe some day. Do you ever have events on the East Coast-Philadelphia area?

  • Kathy Van
    February 13, 2018

    I’ll be quilting my 2017 Nancy Zeiman block of the month quilt & thinking of you all in Washington. Let us make Nancy proud. She taught us so much!

  • Rob Mac
    February 13, 2018

    I will see you all at SewExpo I have so missed seeing Nancy at SewExpo. I know her illness kept her away and now with her passing I won’t get another chance again. I have multiple photos I took with Nancy at SewExpo and I cherish them.

  • Regina Conti
    February 13, 2018

    I love “Team Nancy Zieman” – and I am sure Nancy does too! Missing Nancy.

  • Sunni
    February 13, 2018

    I know you will do Nancy proud! Wonderful event. I’ve given the 5 in one tool for gifts which were well received; didn’t get one for myself. Here’s hoping. Tell us, when you return, about the expo. Thanks.

  • Lissy Currie
    February 13, 2018

    When I lived near Seattle I attended this show. It’s fantastic. Lots of quilting things but also lots of other sewing and fabric tips, techniques, and supplies. Classes are taught by knowledgeable people. Some are 1 o 2 hour classes which tend to be more lectures or demonstrations. The 3 or 4 hour classes are more likely “hands-on”. Quality Sewing Co. are one of the sponsors and do a fine job. Wish I could go again but now living in Rocky Mtn. area and circumstances prevent it. Certainly worth taking a trip to go there.

  • Renee S
    February 13, 2018

    I did enjoy meeting Nancy at the expo several years ago. She was very personable.

    I’ve just finished reading Seams Unlikely. I did have to laugh at the description of setting up for the expo on February 28, 2001 when the earthquake hit. I live just north of Puyallup and remember that day.

  • Peggy V
    February 13, 2018

    Would love to one day attend this event. Will have to attend Sewing weekend in Beaver Dam. So happy Nancy’s team is continuing her legacy

  • Melanie Eddy

  • Donna Fecteau
    February 13, 2018

    It’s a bit too far away from Upstate NY for me to attend. Wish I could. thank you for continuing Nancy’s legacy and know that her spirit is with you. It will be good for you to be out and see the sewing community and let their love embrace and cheer you up.

  • Jan Crandall

  • Claudia Davis
    February 13, 2018

    I’m looking forward to seeing you there. It’s sew much fun! I literally bumped into Nancy the first time I attended. I felt silly later because I was too embarrassed to say anything more than, excuse me, to her. Wish I’d have taken a moment to thank her for her sewing encouragement all those years.

  • Sheila Kester
    February 13, 2018

    A safe journey to the team. I know that Nancy will be watching over you. Thank you for continuing her legacy. We miss her dearly.

  • Judy Chapman

  • Mary D.
    February 13, 2018

    THANK YOU, Team Nancy, for keeping her spirit alive, on tour and on-line. Nancy’s sewing inspiration surrounds me in my sewing room… in her tools, books, etc. I live about an hour from Puyallup and make an annual pilgrimage to Sew Expo. One year I got Nancy’s autograph (and other sew-lebrities at the show) for a ‘book case quilt’ – it is even more precious now!

  • Carol Netzler
    February 13, 2018

    Glad that Nancy’s spirit and love of sewing carries forward. I wish I could attend the sewing expo in Washington. Too far.

    Have always enjoyed the Expos. Wish I could attend but it is a bit further then I care to go by myself. Even though I retired over 15 years ago, I can’t seem to enjoy and do all the things that I’d like to do with all of my volunteer work that I just can’t seem to get away from. Have fun and enjoy it.

    I have yet to buy a new seam gauge, just keep nursing my old one I got when I was in Home Ec, circa 1959. A chance to win a nice new pretty one would make my day.

    Happy sewing the Nancy Zieman way!

    I have enjoyed Sewing with nancy since the 1980’s, I have many of her books and tapes and she has taught me a great deal of sewing savwy. Thanks to Nancy, I wish I could come to your expo however I am pass the age of travel, I live on the East Coast. I am still sewing at age 73yrs old, I just finished a sports jacket for my 7yr old grandson Zane, with a matching blanket of the sports NC football team. My grandson could not believe someone could make these items. Maybe, some day I will teach him home to make whatever. I have taught all 3 of my other grandchild to sew, they would come to spend a week in the summer with grandma and we made clothing for themselves and for their dolls to match. At my age I am still learning new tricks of the trade. I attended Fashion Industries in NYC, I seat with my grandma who sewed the most beauiful things, I too didn’t believe that someone could make these items, just like my grandchild Zane. History does repeat it self and in this situation, for the best. Thank you Nancy for helping me learn new and better ways to enjoy sewing. I have made all my curtains, bedspreads, pillow to match, I have even recovered pillows on my wicker furniture, all because Nancy taught me that I could. Thank you
