I am new to this,I have been sewing for many years and have a lot books on quilting but never made a quilt.I am excited to try but want to start with something easy.

Welcome to the board. Rail fence or a 9 patch are easy blocks. I actually started with a sampler so I learned a lot of techniques on my first quilt.
|
I am hoping you all can help
|
That's what we're here for, hon.
|
maybe start sewing some blocks and put together a sampler quilt? :D:D:D
Here are some wonderful lessons put together by one of our members :D http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-32328-1.htm#2138652 |
thank you, I will try that,I guess I needed a little push
|
Rail and fence is very easy and makes a beautiful quilt. You found a great place to come and get advice welcome!!!
|
thank you,I can see I have help
|
thank you

I made a log cabin for my first quilt. I took a class and was taught how to use a rotary cutter. Haven't looked back sine. The log cabin is still my favorite!

Your local quilt shop probably offers classes. That would be a great start...you'll avoid all the trial and error phase and have a great first quilt in a very short time:>)
|
thank you ladies, I am realy getting excited now
|
Hello and welcome to the Quilting Board! I just completed my first large quilt top . I did the 9 patch and had alot of fun. I am just learning how to quilt and I have gotten so much help from people here. Good luck:)
|
I can see the help wish I would have found this sooner
|
I did sign up for a class but due to bad weather it was cancled and didnt have anymore
|
Welcome! Good luck with your first quilt. A Log Cabin, Rail Fence, Trip Around the World, 4-Patch or squares of several different fabrics are all good beginner's quilts. Most of all...have fun.
