Please adopt me. I am Dawn too, and I am a total beginner. I am using an instructional video because i have no one to help me. No one in my family does this, and the local quilt shop wants me to pay for help. I am a teacher on disability for the year (no pity - I am happy to be able to stay home and get well), so I am limited on resources and money. Anything I can learn to do a good job, and also quilt on a budget, would be great! :thumbup:
