Watch this page for links to all of the Skill Builder Series posts by Piecemeal Quilts and Grey Cat Quilts! The Series is intended to help a brand new quilter learn the techniques and skills starting with the most basic information and progressing through more difficult tasks. If you don’t have access to a class, this is a great place to start!
As part of the Skill Builder Series, we have created a Test Your Skills Sampler, beginning September 2011. Click here for an index of posts.

I’ve changed the order the links are listed below so they follow a more logical progression. If you’re just learning to quilt, start at the top and work your way through the list.

Piecemeal Quilts 
You are doing a wonderful job educating any quilter who is willing to learn. I can’t thank you enough for your great tutorials!!!
I love your cow design I have never seen a cow look so much like one.
I just found this, thanks to a link on TQS forums.
I’m a new quilter, working now on my 1st two quilts. Yes, 2 going at once. One top is nearly done, the other is about halfway. Sort of. One is a simple log cabin, hopefully not so inaccurate as to be what you lovingly termed “adventurous”! 🙂 the other is a diary quilt, using different patterns from Mimi Dietrich’s diary quilt book.
I’m always surprised at what I do and later people tell me it’s hard. I just try it, and go with it, and try again until I get it right.
Oh, and I”m hand piecing…..
Anyway, loved your series, and have bookmarked the skill builder links so I can learn some stuff!
I am new to quilting.Like to learn new things.
I have been sewing and alterations for years.
This seems like more fun.
I shared your series the other day on a quilting board that I go to all the time. Hope you don’t mind. 🙂 This is a wonderful series and I wanted to share it with my quilting friends. Thanking for making this available to us. 🙂
