Hello everyone!

I am new here and am an absolute beginner. I have never quilted though I do consider myself "crafty" (knitter, scrapbooker) so I feel it is something I can enjoy and eventually master.

I do believe in starting at the bottom, though. I am specifically wanting to start with an easy twin sized quilt (I'm doing one for each of my preschool aged children).

I've been looking at books on Amazon.com but it's not been very helpful since I can't actually flip through and see pictures of each project. We don't have much in the way of craft stores/bookshops here in small town USA so I was hoping someone could give me some guidance.

I just want to do a quilt with simple, 10" squares and just a few fabrics. Can anyone recommend a beginner-suitable book that has these kinds of patterns? I'd prefer to find a book with a few different ones to choose from. I've tried to buy blind a couple of times and have ended up with some nice books, but nothing I felt would be suitable for my first project.

Thanks in advance!!!

Becki
