I learn on my own by using Harriet Hargrave Heirloom Machine Quilting book. I bought it when it came out in 1995. Not sure if there is anything else out there that is a complete as this book. GOOD LUCK and just keep on trying. I always have looked at quilting as like learning to ride a bike or how to drive a car. It takes some time to get you eye and hand coordination going. Just don't give up. HANG IN THERE !!! :)
