What a fantastic idea! hey my boys both took an easy credit (home Ec) in high school a long time ago. They can do anything except give birth. LOL! They gave me 4 GDs. There are tutorials on making quilts on YOuTube. Just look up the pattern (Google). You can get instructions for the different patterns. One of your best friends will be a rotary cutter and cutting mat. WalMart sells beginners kits. have fun and good luck!
