Welcome to the forum. Ask away and no question is a dumb one. When I first started quilting it took me 3 hours to pick out 3 fabrics!! I used to make clothing so puting 3 patterns went against me. Now I laugh. Pick out a light, medium and dark that is how I usually start out. To make it easier on the pocket book, try table runners. Something small and fast.
