Bailey's nana, you have come to the right place.
As a suggestion: I am a very visual learner, so, having a good book for beginner's, such as Carol Doak's, "Your First Quilting Book...or Should Be", will provide you with so many pictures and step by step instructions. Amazon.com is one site that has it, and you can get it used to save money.
For me, the day I learned, it's not how perfect your seam widths are, as long as the piece that is showing, is the right width and length, that is the day, all my quilting improved.
I use a mechanical pencil, bc I can get a very thin, light line to use as a sewing guide.
Anytime you want or need to ask questions, there are so many here willing to help.
Pictures of what your working on will make it easier for someone to help you.
A bunch of ppl on here, once walked a lady, (can't recall her name now), through making an heirloom baby quilt, from start to finish.
I'm not the best at explaining things, but there sure are a lot here, that are, and they are the nicest bunch of ppl, you'll stay too long for the company! :wink:
