When you are just starting out go with the best that you can so that it will grow with you. Jo Anns does have good coupons. If you are not signed up, go to joanns.com or something like that and sign up. That way you can start getting Internet generated coupons much quicker than you can get the 1st mailer. Use it to get a at least a 30" x 36 " mat because when you cut larger pieces of fabric you will be SO GLAD :-) you did. Also get yourself a 6" x 24" RULER and a 45 Rotary cutter. THESE THREE ITEMS WILL STAND BY YOU AS YOU DO MORE AND MORE AND YOU WILL USE ALL THREE ***OVER AND OVER *** AGAIN. You will not regret getting them. Then watch their sales to get the rotary blades on sale, etc.
You'll do just fine.
