Well, I have signed up for this but am confused by the first months direction. I think I must have missed something along the way. The optional FMQ sampler is where I got lost. Is there more info. on this somewhere. I know the blocks are 8" square but that is all I know. Any help out there?

In one of her posts she said that a participant could put together a quilt with 12 blocks and then use each month's pattern to quilt one block. At the end of the year, you would have a sampler of all the FMQ designs done this year. I am just going to use muslin squares as I don't want to drag anymore bulk than necessary through my machine when I am learning. I couldn't find the post but I know I read it on her website a few days ago.

Is this what you're looking for?

Hope I can keep up with it - I also need to finish the TQS 2010 Star Crazy BOM, quilt my Sensational Stripper project, put together something special from my SOTTT triangles, and get started on the TQS 2012 BOM. And that is just my TQS-related stuff - I'm swamped But still... it looks like it will be a great year for quilting!!
