Yes, Marie has a broader celebrity name then Kaye. And maybe Marie can sew, but Kaye is a sew-er/quilter!!

Would you or your none sewing friends purchase a machine just because someone is a celebrity????

Thanks for letting me vent!!! :twisted:

My first quilt was a Kaye Wood's pattern. Love her techniques. Maybe, Kaye will endorse another sewing machine brand.

With Marie's family & appearances, I doubt if she has little time to even sew. And, no, I would not buy just because it was endorsed by a celebrity. I get recommendations, and do a lot of research before I purchase anything expensive.
