Nokie: Yes, dear I was just like you. I wanted to make something anything quilty. So I started with something very simple. I'll see if I can find a picture and post it. I have a USB/Flash Drive crammed with patterns/ideas that one day I hope to do or the great tips/tutorials I have picked up along the way. Just put two pieces of material together and make whatever your heart desires. You do not have to make a huge quilt first. Relax, this really is fun; even for a newbie like me.
