First off, thank you so much for all the love on my last post about my book coming out next year - you all make me feel so loved! I really can't tell you how much it means to have the support from all of you.
Speaking of books... have you met Angela? I am sure you have since she is excellent at free motion quilting. Well, she has a book out and one coming out soon and it is all about free motion quilting. As you know, free motion quilting is how I roll so this book is a happy addition to my quilting library.
I am happy to share this great book with you, Angela has been a great friend. We met back in 2011 at the Salt Lake Quilt Market - it was so awesome talking with her, especially since I had been happily following her blog for a while.
I love that I have a signed copy!
This book is absolutely full of awesome ways to quilt and I love her concentric circles the best. Whenever I have seen a quilt with awesome quilting and this stitch, I have immediately known that it was Angela's quilt job. This is going to be the first stitch I try out when I have one of my quilts on the racks.
Another thing that I love about this book is the close ups of the quilting. You really get a feel for what the stitch looks like and how you need to quilt it.
The modern quilts in this book are all so fun. I have had a great time reading through this book and I know you will enjoy reading it as much as I have. So, do you want to win a copy? Well, Angela has graciously allowed me to give away a copy of her book to one of my readers - pretty sure she will sign it too. What do you need to do to win? Check out the 7 new fabric lines that have come into our shop, then come back and leave a comment telling me your favorite new line. Only one comment please!
Good luck!

My tastes lean towards the muddy, so I like the everlastings or the cinnamon spice. I know that's two, but it's hard to pick just one!
You have high praise for the new book. I'm going to check out the web link. If I don't win your giveaway, I might just have to buy it myself. It looks like it is chock-full of ideas of how to fill open spaces. Thanks for the chance to win.
First of all congrats on your book coming out next year, can't wait! I would love to have a copy of Angela Walters' book. I love seeing all her beautiful designs, and hopefully learning to do some myself. Hard to choose a favorite line, but I do love Gypsy Girl!
Odds and Ends, I think! The book looks fabulous.
If there was ever a book I was in need of, this would be it! Odds and Ends by Cosmo Cricket looks like a fun fabric line! I love the colors in it! I am waiting patiently for Marmalade though:)

Chateau Rouge would be my favorite, and this book is on my wish list after I saw a video with Angela demonstrating her quilting techniques.
Gypsy Girl!!! would be my choice. The great color would be great to work with during the dull days of winter.
Choose one favorite? How do you do that? I love Collections Warmth, Harvest Moon, Everlastings, and Cinnamon Spice--maybe in that order. : )
I have been seeing a lot about this new book lately, and as a newbie FMQuilter I'm sure it would be a welcome addition to my library!
Love, love, love GYPSY GIRL! Love the fun bright vibrant colors. I will definitely have to get a bundle. The pictures you posted from Angela's book look amazing. Also, I am looking forward to seeing your book. Your free motion quilting video was great. So motivating and fun! You definitely have a gift. Thanks!
That Kapalua Batiks line is gorgeous!
It is really hard. You just wanna break apart those bundles and see the prints on the fabric better. One just cannot get enough of fabric ya know! I would have to choose Gypsy Girl though.
Share the Joy looks like it would make fun holiday projects for the grandchildren!!! Thanks for the chance to win Angela's book & looking forward to seeing yours!!
oh definitely Gypsy Girl! Thank you for the opportunity to win this wonderful book!
Love the collection "Everlastings". The book looks very interesting. Finally a FMQ quilting book that actually shows the stitching!
'Warmth' by Howard Macrus, but I think I could handle sewing with any or all of them :) The Christmas fabrics are super cute, although I always have a hard time thinking about the holidays when it's still summertime.
This was hard to choose just one but Gypsy Girl is my choice.
I working on a Bali Wedding Ring, so the batiks would be perfect, but I'm really drawn to Gypsy Girl! thanks for the opportunity!

I know I would be a better machine quilter if I had this book... and practiced!
I love a lot of them, but odds and ends is the clear winner for me!

(I'm 54 and you tend to get stuck, ya know, like hairstyles, makeup, etc, LOL). :) :) I still have my 1970's hair, and my minimal makeup, and my house is full of "antiques", but Gypsy Girl just sings to me :)
