One of the things I've been thinking a lot about lately is expanding my skill set. I love to learn and am always excited to try something new. How about you? Is there something new you've been itching to try? To enter to win some Perfectly Perched, just leave me a comment here on this post and share something about something new you'd like to try.

- I'll draw 2 winners this Saturday, May 5, 2012
- The winners can choose from any of the 3 color stories

And to close off this post, I've included some gorgeous eye candy of Perfectly Perched quilt tops...Sigh (insert dreamy look here)...So scrumptious!
Perfectly Perched in Red and Aqua
Perfectly Perched in Lime and Aqua

I would love to learn free motion quilting so I could stipple everything... Just not brave enough currently to risk ruining a creation!
I'd like to take some time and learn some knife skills in the kitchen - I have a beautiful set of knives that were gifted to me and I'm sure I'm using them all wrong! Also been taking photography classes and I'm feeling like I actually am taking advantage of my DSLR after 2 years of ownership!
I think my next adventure is going to be blocks with curves. I've sewn curves on garments but never on something I needed to lay flat. Love the new fabric! Thanks for this giveaway!
There are so many things to learn! Applique, Paper Piecing and Free-motion Quilting are high on my list. Also up there - procrasination avoidance! Thanks for the chance to win - I have loved every one of your fabric lines!
So excited to see this line ready! As for a new skill...hmm...I guess pattern making and tailoring. I could greatly improve my garment finishing with better tailoring skills.
Lovely colors in this line - too! My desired new skill - needle turn applique.
paper pieceing would be top of my list, for the moment at least!
LOVE THESE FABRICS!

I would love to learn how to English Paper Piece. I'm always wishing I had some hand sewing while sitting in waiting rooms and things. Instead, I play on my phone.
I'd love to increase my ability to sew clothing. My daughter is especially hard to fit, and I'm thinking of making her some clothes this summer. On a side note I'm super excited about this new line. Sadly, my blue chair cushion is wearing out after two years. I'm really thinking of going with your new chair print in the lime/aqua line. Love all of these, as usual!

This is totally random and completely unrelated to sewing, but I recently heard about urban beekeeping. It's probably not something I'd do on my own, but I'd love to learn the basics and maybe spend some time helping an experienced beekeeper take care of his/her hives. Crazy, right?
I would love to learn to applique. I have a numbered bean bag project I hope to make for my toddler soon.

Ride a unicycle? We do have one and my son is trying to learn...
Find time to try my hand at designing some fabric and maybe finally start a blog about all my creations.
New skill? I'd love to perfect fitting clothes. I know the basics, but I must be missing something, because nothing ever fits exactly like I want it to. Practice, I suppose!
I still want/need to learn free motion quilting. Thanks for a chance to win some of your lovely line!
I really want to learn how to free motion quilt- that is one skill I just can't seem to get down. I think I just need to loosen up and spend some time playing with it- I tend to get too rigid when I do my quilting.
i am really itching to try a pyramid quilt. i just bought a new ruler and i have a stash of solids waiting for me but i have too many other things to finish first.
Perfectly perched is just so, well, perfect! I am wanting to learn more about photoshop and what I can do with my photos in terms of enhancement, manipulation and graphic design.

I would like to learn how to hand quilt. I love hand sewing the bindings on quilts, so I think I'd like to do a bit of hand quilting.
I'd like to learn to bind a quilt correctly. I've done a couple mug rugs just for practice, and I certainly need more practice before I do anything bigger and more important!

another winner! got to find some of that fabric PDQ.
New things? I need to learn how to use GIMP. I need to build a proper website - all new stuff.

Oh I love these fabrics, they are beautiful! I would love to learn how to hand quilt. I think it is so beautiful but I have never tried it. Hopefully soon! Thanks for the giveaway!
I am dying to try paper piecing, but need some time that isn't as busy at work before I can start up something new.

I love fabric very much... So i' d like to learn something related with fabric such as girl dress, quilting and bby stuff. Love to see your creation... ;-)
I saw FITF's quilt and loved it! Great fabrics in any color way. New skills- machine quilting, dinner in a flash, going with the flow (really doubt that last one will happen, but I'm trying).

PS gorgeous fabrics as always!
I've always wanted to learn how to do woodwork; using a saw/drill/router and make furniture. It's a crazy dream because I'd probably lose a digit and my quilting would suffer but {{sssh}} don't tell, sometimes I grab the hubby's Craftsman drill-driver and screw something with it.

I want to learn steeking in knitting; my sewing skills are pretty good in general. However I need to practice my free motion quilting as that's fairly new to me.
I have my sights set on learning trapunto at the moment. I'd love to be able to do those big wholecloth quilts. I like all the colourways but at the moment I think lime and aqua. Thanks for the chance to win.
Wow this is a really generous giveaway of some amazing fabric! I would like to learn how to free-motion quilt on my home machine. I've been lurking at some of the online quilt alongs, just need to find the time to try it. (Lime & Aqua would be my choice if I'm one of the lucky winners!)
Lovely fabrics! This year I have bought a sewing machine and I'd like to learn how to sew for my newborn baby! :)
Thank you, your fabrics are really great! Good luck everyone :)
Utter GORGEOUSNESS!!!! Love your work.
I'd definitely like to learn how to free motion quilt. I've told myself that I should master just regular quilting before moving on. I'm improving, so I'll get to it.
The new skill I've been wanting to learn is curved piecing. I bought a "Curvemaster" foot for my sewing machine and think I'm going to conquer this formerly scary task. It will open up a whole category of quilts I had never considered making!
Thanks so much for the giveaway. Those designs and colors are fantastic.
wordygirl at earthlink dot net
I love your Bird themes!I wish I*d bought more of Tufted Tweets when they were available. I still have a little left, now I should learn to fussy cut with as little waste as possible. This new line would top the work beautifully. I'd like to learn to make OBW blocks as well.
Oh my those quilts are just gorgeous. I love this collection. Was so disappointed to have missed Tufted Tweets, so will make sure I definitely don't miss this one.
I really want to learn to paper piece those intricate blocks.
Love this so much! I would love to learn how to do upholstery. I have some mid century armchairs to recover.
as always gorgeous fabrics and thanks so much for the chance to win! I would love to expand my skills in FMQ! Would make a nice change from straight line quilting all the time!
Such beautiful fabric! I adore bright colors! Thanks for sharing your talent. I'm still looking for the "perfect" project to learn free motion quilting and also making of little boys clothes (tons of girl stuff out there!). Thanks, Patti (patti.mcg@verizon.net)
I'd like to learn how to make soft and hard cheese. I've made fresh cheese before but want to learn how to do it with rennet and cultures and suchlike.
Love the fabric - thanks for the chance to win. :-)
Thank you for this opportunity! Really love your fabric designs :)
I would like to learn how to embroider more perfectly by hand (as I am embroidering nowadays on my norwegian bunad - hard to get i perfect), and I also would like to learn tatting and free motion quilting.
oh I love the look of that snowball quilt! I want to learn to use my serger properly!
Of course I'd love to increase & improve my sewing skills, but I would also love to learn how to make decorated cookies (piped with royal icing). Beautiful fabric - thanks for the chance to win!!
Sew pretty!!! Love the fresh colors and fun prints. I would like to conquer the zipper, learn to make scalloped quilt borders, and become a master of the crocheted granny square. Thank you for the giveaway.
There are so many things that I would like to learn that I find it hard to choose just one. Free motion sewing is on the list along with many new quilt patterns. I also would like to try some resist techniques on fabric.
I would love to learn how to knit. My Grandma and my sister are both fantastic at it, and I'd love to get in on their knitting conversations and actually know what I am talking about.

Congratulations on your new fabric line! Great colors! I would like to learn to free motion quilt and knit, but not at the same time. :)
i want to learn to make yeast bread. really good yeast bread. mine always has holes in it or doesn't rise properly! loving the lime & aqua combo and those quilts are stunning!
I would love to learn paper piecing. I just have to pull together enough time to do it!! Thanks for the chance to win some of this gorgeous fabric!!
How do you do it? Another gorgeous line of fabric!
Other than the fact that I'd love to be able to design such gorgeous fabrics? I'm looking to learn paper piecing and am lucky enough to be going to FQ retreat in London next month and do a couple of workshops there. thanks for a superb giveaway
New skill? I would like to learn how to make bags. I'm finally working up enough nerve to try one soon. Love the fabric!
So I have two things I would like to branch out into! I only began 'quilting' (or as I say pieceing) about a year ago! I have done LOTS o pieceing and have five tops done. I have done little things like mini's and tablerunners, but I want to actually QUILT! Oh, and I want to learn to embroider!
Beautiful fabrics, great giveaway!!
I really want to learn free motion quilting :)
So many skills on my list.. Would love to learn to do leatherwork though, thats been on my list awhile now and one day soon...
Love Perfectly Perched BTW, just gorgeous designs (and love the pun!)
Very nice giveaway! I want to learn needle turned applique. I have tried watching video clips online, but I need something more. It is more difficult than it looks. I would love to find a quilter in my area who does it and can show me how to do it.
I've been meaning to learn how to sew a zipper for a long time now! Must get onto that!
Sewing blogs make learning so much more fun these days!
I want to learn to knit SO SO bad!! however...i can't seem to tear myself away from quilting long enough to do it ;) thank you for the chance to win!
Great giveaway! I would love to learn to crochet. Thanks for the

I'd to pick up two new skills: needle-turn applique and free motion quilting. And I'd REALLY like to pick up as much Perfectly Perched as I possibly can!
As I've given up my sewing machine for the time being in favor of traveling the world, I'd love to learn the art of the layover. Some people seem to be able to enjoy a whole city in a few hours, but I'm still scared to leave the airport for anything less than 12!
Anthony Bordain seems to do it well, so I think I need to start figuring it out too.
I should learn to use and understand my computer better to make these tasks painless :)
I want to stop being scared of curves because I'm sure they are not that hard to master !
And I love the raspberry/lime colorway (even though they are all gorgeous!)
Thanks !
I would love to learn two things, both how to make children's clothing and how to do free motion quilting.
I love the raspberry and lime. I am going to try making a rain coat out of the laminated cotton fabric. I have it cut out and am working up the courage to start sewing it. I don't want to mess up on fabric that cost $20 a yard.
I'd like to learn how to paper piece
I want to get better at quilting. I free-motion quilted once and found it easy, but I think my current (prehistoric) machine just won't tolerate it. I can't 'quilt as you go' to save my life. I can just about hand quilt, but it takes sooooooooooooo long! I love the raspberry and lime colourway. Thanks for the chance!
Gorgeous fabric! Generous giveaway, thanks for the chance to win! :)
I have an ever growing list of sewing related things I want to learn....seems the more I learn the more I realize I still need to learn! :)
I'd like to learn free-motion quilting, machine binding and and how to add elastic to waistbands using my serger....that's a start! :)
What fun fabrics. Thanks for the chance to win.
I would like to try slalom. I watch my husband but would like to get behind the wheel myself one of these days.
Have to agree with another post above...curved piecing would be a great new skill.
I'm really hoping to get better at knitting and crochet (you know, making something more complex than a scarf). I know the basic stitches, so I'm pretty sure I can do it, but I get so confused at trying to decipher the patterns!
Thanks for the giveaway!
I need to learn to prioritize my time so I have more time for quilting.
those are some great color ways!
i'd like to learn how to sew zippers & bags/pouches.
LOVE the colors and the design! I really want to learn hand embroidery!
I'd like to get better at FMQ and not feel so overwhelmed and outclassed.
Also, applique, cathedral windows, curved and paper piecing.
Hmmmm, I'm going with a non sewing skill. How about running, that would make up for all the time spent at the sewing machine! Yes, running it is.
I'd like to learn paper piecing.
I would like to learn to crochet!
brooke at richardchurch dot com
Love these new colors - ALL OF THEM! I'd love to learn to crochet - keep seeing this wonderful crocheted trim on lovely prints and want to try myself.
I would like to try to make the New York Beauty block. I'm intimidated by the curves. Thanks for the opportunity to enter your wonderful giveaway!
Free motion quilting and/or paper piecing, definitely. I'm still stuck with squares/triangles and straight lines, haha! I've only been quilting for a year and a half, though, so I've got plenty of time. ;) Thanks for the chance!
I've recently taught myself how to knit and am advancing quickly -- knitted socks already! What I didn't know when I started was that many times a crocheted border is in order and I have not been able to teach myself how to crochet! Everyone says it's so easy, but I just don't get it. It feels so uncomfortable in my hands. Anyway, that's the skill I look forward to learning. Thanks! Victoria (vlsaustin at hotmail dot com)
I would love to do more free motion quilting :) And maybe start jumping with my pony. But I am so scared of it.
Susanne
I have just learned applique and now my quilts can come to life!

Thanks for the giveaway. I would like more info on paper piecing. What wonderful fabrics!!! happystitchermm@yahoo.com
I really like the fabric! I want to learn applique techniques (basic by machine) and I would like to do paper piecing. I've only made hexies :)
I would like to improve my maching quilting skills. Outside of sewing, I would like to learn to play the piano!
I want to try hexis, they look simple yet intimidating!
It would take less time to write what I wouldn't want to learn! I've only been quilting since the fall, and I'd like to try my hand at applique and paper piecing, but I really want to get better at free-motion quilting.
I want to improve my free motion quilting techniques. Thanks for the chance to win.
~Terry~
One of my goals for this year is to try out long arm quilting (renting time on a machine).
