I would start by going to local library and look at the quilt books they have. Both of the library's near me have several shelves of Quilt books.
I would think that picking out a very basic block and get it all sewed and pressed would be a great start, then make a block with more pieces like a 9 patch with border... or a basic Sampler Quilt... would be a Great introduction to quilts... Basic squares can be used for potholders, table toppers, or even to sew on to a totebag... lots of ideas can be found in those books with smaller projects... Good Luck...
