The Viking Company has a great educational program called America Sews which many quilters probably have viewed on public tv. In addition to their tv program, they have a list of all their series and you can access instructions for the projects in each show. There is just a ton of information there and even if you don't have a Viking machine, you can adapt and use the one you are familiar with. So if you do see a show but can't take notes fast enough, go and check out their site for the rest of the information.
p3 Designs is having a BOM that is applique. You have to sign up for the site to get access to the free BOM (its easy and not invasive) and then go the Forum and you will see the 2012 BOM in the forum with fabric requirements and first block posted with is a beautiful plumeria. After that, you better check out her lovely pattern designs as they are most impressive and those who applique will get itchy fingers after looking at them! Very impressive.
Crazy Lady Quilt Designs will truly make you crazy with all her enticing designs. I put a couple of her projects on my to do list already. She is currently sponsoring a Four Block Wonder BOM which is really pretty. Her snowman applique quilt is too cute and theres a lot of snowman to make for those who love snowman(which I know there are many fans of)! My favorite though was the Cupcake-A-Day blocks with the recipes included for all those cupcakes, blueberry, cranberry, Kahlua, and the list goes on. The blocks are sweet too and theres more BOMs to check out and quilts. Such a generous sharing of all that creativity.
Anyway, these fine blogs and sites should keep you busy for a while. Diana
