I am intermediate to advanced machine quilting and somewhere between beginner and intermediate machine appliqué
Anne Buckley
I fall in the intermediate category on both those fun techniques. Reading this makes me want to start a new project! It has been a while since I worked on anything just for fun!
Denise Hoover
I think of myself as a beginner with free motion quilting (still working on keeping those stitches even) and an intermediate in applique. I have improved a lot with applique! 🙂 I would love to win the Sulky thread!

I’m a beginner with a fear/strong desire. Did some FMQ around preprinted designs but jumped in after finding your blog. Took a class and now am going into a small quilt! Have done 2 projects with machine applique but am concentrating on FMQ. Love,Love, the giveaway. Thanks.

I am a beginner at both free motion quilting and machine applique. I only began quilting at all 2 years ago, but it has become most addicting. Thanks to you and Sulky for the give away.

I am a beginner machine quilter and machine appliquier. Would love to try threads that are so gorgeous. Thank you for the inspiration, please keep it coming
Susan Reasons
I consider myself a beginner at FMQ but have a Bernina that I purchased because of the stitch regulator so I am eager to use it. I am probably a intermediate on the machine appliqué as I have done that for a number of years for the gran kids.
Denyse Rose
I am a beginner at both machine quilting and applique. It is so frustrating because there is so much information available online and I just want to spend 24 hours a day learning more and more but life gets in the way! One day I hope to advance up the ladder and feel more confident. Thanks. Denyse

I am an intermediate to advanced machine quilter, and somewhere between beginner and intermediate machine appliquer…I’ve done some but not skilled in all the various machine applique techniques…my satin stitch needs LOTS of work!! Thanks.
Jill Tartaglino
I’d say I fall somewhere between beginner and intermediate at both machine quilting and applique. I am learning so much from your blog, thank you for the wonderful tutorials! The Sulky colors are all so beautiful together, like a new box of crayons!

Nancy Pruitt
I am a beginner machine quilter and haven’t even done any machine appliqué, however that is one of the goals I have made for myself in my new quilters notebook. I am so excited by getting my ufo’s in order and trying new skills at the same time!!
Jeanette
I’d say I’m an intermediate free motion quilter with lots of room to learn more techniques! I do more hand appliqué than machine appliqué but I’m comfortable doing it on the machine so I would have to say intermediate there too! Great contest! Thanks!
Lori Erickson
I am definitely a beginner at free motion quilting and machine applique.
Susan Justice
I am an intermediate to advanced free motion quilter and an intermediate machine applique quilter. I no longer can get Sulky thread at my favorite quilt store so would love to win! Your blog is a great resource! Thanks
Karen
I consider myself as an beginning/intermediate machine quilter. When it comes to machine appliqué I am a beginner. I have used sulky on a few garment pieces in the past. I have not tried it in machine quilting. Thanks for the opportunity.

todd mazurek
I am a beginner at free motion quilting. I am only starting to open up this new world of quilting.
I would consider myself advanced at machine applique. I have done it for at least 30 years now…back before there were any fancy sewing machines.
Paula
Intermediate to advanced with FMQ, beginner at machine appliqué. Thanks Lori! Love your blog!
Vicki
Noticed the case states 40 wt…do you also use 40wt?
Evie H
Although I’ve done a number of free-motion quilts, I’m going to consider myself a beginner because there is much to improve. As for appliqueing, I do most by hand and just a few by machine, so there, too, I am a beginner. Thanks for the fantastic giveaway.
Carol F
Beginner at both.
Nancy N
I would say that I am an intermediate FMQer and machine appliquéer. I love using rayon thread for appliqué, have not tried it for FMQ. I still need a lot of practice doing both. Winning the thread would definitely help. Thank you, and Sulky, for the give away.
Laurie
That would be fabulous to have to use. I used to be an intermediate machine appliquer…but I found out recently that if you don’t practice your skill level goes down; so I’m a beginner again. FMQ? I’m not a rank beginner but not quite intermediate.
Lynn McBroom
I am an intermediate free motion quilter. I’ve never done any machine appliqué so given the 3 choices…. Beginner.
mummyquilts
I would say that I’m a strong beginner (?) hehe at both.
I honestly never would have thought to use Rayon thread for FMQ! I’m definitely going to try it now! Thank you.
pdcaglePat
I’m definitely a beginner at both! I’m doing pretty good at the free-motion quilting, and find I just love doing machine applique.
bluedove2014d
I am an intermediate in both FMQ and machine appliqué and love them both. And I love the Sulky Rayon thread.
Diana Knight
I consider myself an intermediate to advanced machine quilter. And I love doing machine applique – I feel fairly advanced in that regard. I’d love to do both with Sulky thread!
souderja
I am a intermediate free motion quilter and a beginner in applique. I have used Sulky threads butthave not tried the rayon yet. Thanks for the giveaway.
maggielou
O I love Sulky I am a beginner at FMQ and follow all your tutorials. I am learning applique by machine. I look for all the tutorials I can to see how other quilters do both turned applique and fused applique.
Edra Moore
I consider my self a beginner at free motion quilting. I consider myself a begginner at machine appliqué although I have had much more success with the machine appliqué than free motion quilting. ( I know I need to practice more on the free motion quilting but get frustrated and don’t keep at it)
Love sulky thread!
cwienstroer
I am a beginner with applique – have only done it a few times. I must have progressed in Free Motion Quilting since I am not as scared of it as before. I do it and enjoy it but struggle to get started! thanks for all the tips. Cindy
Vonda
A newbie at both FMQ & appliqué.
Sharon "Shane" Dallman
I am at an intermediate level with my free motion quilting and at a beginner level at my machine applique work. I am an avid sewer and have been sewing since about age 5. I love thread and have quite a collection of old threads on wooden spools so I could use some new threads! Thank you for such a wonderful offer and also for all your lovely tutorials! I truly enjoy your blog!
Joyce Ward
I am a RANK beginner in free motion quilting but probably could be intermediate in machine applique. I’ve used the Sulky Rayon thread in machine embroidery for embellishing clothing. It adds a lot.

Hi I’m from Arkansas and I’m a beginner in free hand quilting and piecing. My mom is really good she also does the quilting and piecing by hand, she has some beautiful quilts. I’m a little on the intermediate to beginner on the applique by machine, I’m getting better. I’d love to add to my growing collection of threads, they look like jewels to be hanging on my wall. Thanks for all your inspiration you give your readers each time you write on your blog.
