Hi Rhap,
So glad to have another quilter! And my dear - looking at your blocks - you're already a quilter. Now just go forth and multiply those blocks, into a quilt and that one into more quilts. I haven't seen many tutorials for actual quilting, but I wasn't looking. I'm sure they're out there. Look at the tutorials here first, then let your fingers do the walking in the world wide web - there are tutorials for just about everything we do. We love to share. When all else fails. Ask in the "main" section here. Someone will make you one, or talk you through it. We're not like bakers that keep our favorite recipes a secret; we're really good about sharing information and lending a helping hand whenever we can. Sounds like with your mom you have a great start - that's the best resource to start with - willing hands beside you
Happy quilting and again, welcome to the nicest quilting place on earth.

Sure I have something like 40 to go, but it's still exciting. Looks great! Love the colors! Welcome from beautiful Northwest Washington, by the way
I'm new here too, and I'm now addicted to this website (as if being addicted to quilting wasn't bad enough....ha ha!) Fabulous job on your first quilt blocks! (wish my first ones had looked even half that good! 
)
