Default Hello from Minnesota!

Hi, I'm from Minnesota. I'm brand new to quilting. I'm working on my very first quilt, so any tips on how to start would be very much appreciated! I started cross stitching recently, and I fell in love with it, so I thought I would also branch out to quilting. I'm hoping to find lots of great information and fellow quilters here!

-Betsy

Hi, Betsy! Welcome from coastal central Florida. You need to learn to use the Search function - then you can find just about anything. YouTube is a great resource. You might want to try the free Craftsy (www.craftsy.com) Block of the Month (BOM) - just start at the beginning and catch up as you can.

Welcome! Start with a smaller quilted project so you won't become discouraged. How about a pillow top, table runner or small wall hanging? Look for patterns on line.
