    I have learned that perfection isn't necessary to create something lovely and loved. Thanks for the opportunity to win a new pattern! The reason you aren't getting much traffic is because the link from Quilting Gallery to your blog is broken. You might mention it to them. I just re-typed your blog name and got here!

    I love your pattern - thanks for the chance!! I think the most important thing in quilting is to just have fun. I fretted so much in the beginning...not I just try my best and do what I want. Oh, and press, press, press!! Lastly, yes, Farm Quilter is right...the link is broken on the Quilting Gallery site. Hope you can get it fixed!

    The most important thing I've learned about quilting is that other people always think the quilt you made is prettier than you do. I make quilts for people to use.
    p.s. the gallery link has .ccom in the url, so I just removed that extra c and your post popped right up.

    The most important thing I've learned is to be precise and careful - and that my idea of a quarter of an inch wasn't anywhere near accurate lol

    The most important thing I have learned...that there are no rules--except to have really good 1/4" seams. Otherwise, break all the rules...

    The most important thing I've learned is to enjoy the entire process of quilting! Don't rush myself trying to just get finished - instead I should savor every moment!

  21. Renate Bontrup30 August 2012 at 18:16

    The most important thing(s) I've learned is, you can't guesstimate a quarter inch, and the iron is not my enemy as I once thought before I started this brand new addiction of quilting!

  22. Robert30 August 2012 at 18:16

    I think it is taking my time to be percise. If I hurray or rush, my seams do not match or they don't measure up. Thanks for the opportunity to enter your give-away. From northern Iowa . . . .

    I've learned to trust my instincts when it comes to color selection. Even if no one else is picking the same colors or fabric patterns you are. Thinking outside the box is a good thing, and being different is never bad. Have fun with it and if you don't like the finished project, you can still be proud of the work you've done. Give it away as a gift and let someone else treasure it.

  30. Birdena31 August 2012 at 11:24

    I would say the most important thing I have learned is to measure accurately and have scant 1/4 inch seams.....and not sweat the little imperfections, no one but me ever notices them.

    Taking a quilting class was the most important decisiou I ever made. I am so glad I learned how to make a quilt and then actually made the quilt myself. There are so many tutorials and creative designers that quilting has become my new hobby.

    Thanks for participating in the blog hop and giveaway. I love the quilt at the beginning of this post. I especially like consistent yet scrappy feel of it, with not every block having the same colors and fabrics in the same place. It's beautiful.

    I've learned that it's good to take chances. Quilting is not life-and-death. If the block doesn't work out it's a piece or two of fabric that I've lost, not something more important.

    My absolute most important thing I've learned in quilting is to measure that one-quarter inch seam CORRECTLY and ACCURATELY ALL THE TIME! It makes so much of a difference. Whew!~

  46. Maria Kievit3 September 2012 at 05:37

    Precision, and have the time to do so. In a hurry? Better look first and cut and sew second. I've ripped up too many projects just because it needed to get done in a hurry: All the seams went wrong on my last project....

    Measure twice cut once - thank you!

  48. Carol3 September 2012 at 09:17

    Pressing without steam and pressing straight up/down is important. You can cut and sew correctly and have bad pressing warp the block out of shape.
