This
giveaway will close January 31, 2013 at 5pm. The randomly chosen

VickiT says
I hope it's ok if I say there isn't any new quilt related skills I want to learn. NO! I'm not perfect and know them all already, trust me. LOL What I want for this year it to improve on what I have learned to date since I began quilting a couple of years ago. If I add more to what I have a struggle with already then I will just frustrate myself. Does that make sense, I hope?
That fabric is just beautiful. Thank you for the chance.

I am terrified of FMQ. I know you have to practice and when I do the threads are all pulled and you can see the bobbin thread. So I stick with straight lines. Even with straight lines they are crooked. Thank you.

Quilting – any kind, free motion, straight line, machine or hand. I am happy with my piecing now but not so happy with how my quilting looks. My ambition is always far higher than my ability haha. I expect to be able to quilt like Angela Walters despite having very little experience haha.
Jodi says
This year I need to learn a whole lot of quilt related skills as I am hoping to make my first proper quilt. This Christmas just gone I made my first basted, backed and bound wall hanging which was a whole lot of new skills to self teach myself. I also did my first Hexi's. I loved the challenge & am looking forward to doing more.
