    A little research reveals that he gives away sewing machines to people who have affected by tragedy and don't have access to a machine. Google "Scott's Free Sewing Machines" to read more. Sounds like a great guy. I think Free Spirit is in good hands.

    this is so exciting! Scott Fortunoff gives away the sewing machines (with his wife's help) and is a really great presenter. He was in Midwest last summer and one of the shops had arranged a dinner and chance to hear him explain so much about the fabric industry--if you ever get the chance to hear him--do!
