hello everyone! I have recently retired and want to make a quilt. I just purchased a baby lock esante. I have a little sewing experience but have never attemted to make a quilt. I am going to take a class for this. I was told you don't want to go to joann fabrics to buy material to make a quilt. Was told a place to go buy material and it is a better quality. I know a lot of time goes in to a quilt. What do you all think about material and what brands should i buy. Thanks and I will probably be on here a lot trying to learn. It took me about 2 hours to learn how to thread the machine. I had to keep reading the book. Oh well, finally got it threaded. lol
