I'm ready to try some new things, too. I just retired after 34 years of teaching, so I totally understand not having the time or energy to do too much during the school year. One of the first things I would like to learn is how to machine quilt. All I have ever done is hand quilting, which I love, but it takes time. I think I would finish more projects if I could quilt some projects using my machine. (I just found 7 UFO's and all but 1 are completed tops just waiting to be sandwiched and quilted!) The other thing I would like to learn is not quilt related, but I know many of us enjoy other fiber arts. I bought a Cricket loom last fall and played around with weaving while on medical leave for awhile this past winter. I can't wait to learn more weaving techniques!
