    This year I really want to make my first quilt top and then quilt it myself. Ambitious? Yes. But that's me all over. I have been a cross stitcher for over 14 years and now quilting is taking over. Also I really love the Pure collection but haven't bought one yet.
    Love

    Please enter my name in your draw. I just finished my first ever jelly roll quilt today (baby quilt for a colleague who is due to deliver this week), and I think PURE would be a lovely next set of fabrics to work with.

    I hope to make a few quilts this year to honor some people who are having some special milestones. My father will be 80 in April and I want to make him a Nature throw for his chair in the living room.
    I also want to make an aunt and uncle a quilt to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary.
    There are others too so I guess I better get quilting.
    Thanks for the chance to win such a nice jelly roll.

    I discovered Sweetwater Designs just before Christmas - and I love the Pure fabric. I am so inspired to quilt! I had a 60 hour per week job for 3 years so I had to give up quilting. I was laid off 17 months ago and then I fell a year ago January 10th so I am just getting back to quilting after a very long absence (I first thought - no problem but it turns out I need my left arm to cut fabric). I have been finishing some UFO's and I am just starting to work on my stash.

    Love your Blog! It helps keeps me inspired to sew!

    I loved your prairie points Christmas Tree and so I find myself here! I don't have any plans for major quilts at this stage, but will be doing small projects like swaps, mug rugs, doll quilts, placemats, purses etc. So that jelly roll would go a LONG way!

    This year I want to bite the bullet and cut into all my gorgeous fabrics to make at least one quilt. I'm hoping to make about three plus have all my 2011 Christmas presents done by the end of October so I can relax the last two months of this year.

    I'll have a small break in sewing because we just learned we will become grandparents again in September. This will be our 2nd grandchild. :)
