    Your first quilt looks good! You've learned something!

    Paddywagon. There is a thread for more experienced quilters to mentor a new person. Here is the thread, see if this is something you might want to do.http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-38362-1.htm

    Welcome, by the way.

    I live in Southern California, but still NC is home for me.

    Greetings from Northern California.

    When you say that you didn't learn anything, does that mean you were already familiar with the quilting tools and the 1/4" seam? I think taking classes is a great way to stock up on basics and then you can go out and experiment on your own....and you are in good company here on the QB.
