Looking forward to 2013

Thus far I have randomly made a few quilts, wall hangings, totes and bits in between.  Yet I have so many techniques I want to learn.  Paper Foundation piecing is one of them, so this year I am going to commit to a few BOM's, learning paper foundation piecing and random quilt blocks.

So I've signed up for the following BOM's, mainly to work on my piecing skills and at the end of the year I will end up with at least 3 beautiful quilts.

With regards to free motion quilting, I plan to this year follow Leah Day's Free Motion Quilting more strictly and she has planned this beautiful  Express Your Love quilt that we'll be working on, not exactly sure how we'll go about making it, but from what I understand we'll learn different piecing techniques to make this and then of course to FMQ it too.  I really look forward to make this...

And in between I want to learn "No sewing till you quilt it".  I bought the book from Day Styles Designs, and am totally intrigued by this technique.  (Images from Day Styles Designs)



It might seem like a lot, but I'm sure I can do it... I think :-)  
I'm certain if I have a schedule all worked out, I can do it... 

Happy quilting.
