The best thing I did early in the year was take a class from Sally Collins. I consider her the queen of Precision Piecing. I'll never make a quilt like she does. Took me all afternoon to make a 3" block but i learned so much and got so much mind refreshment that it was worth the 2 days and driving some distance to take the class. I highly recommend it.

I learned so much from Deidre McElroy. I learned so much about tools, threads, and cloth from her...not too mention that I learned how to quilt tiny stiches from her. She broke it all down and made it easy to understand how to do it. Love her classes, her books, her tools and her thinmles. Especially her thimbles. That Perfect Stitch is her book.. Her mother started the business of "Roxanne's". NOt sure if that name of the company has changed or not.
Yes, Sally Collins is good too. I just had a mini class from her but i did make one of her designs..8X10 size.
