When I first got interested in quilting, I took tons of quilting books out of the library. I would be totally overwhelmed with the information, would wait awhile, then go back and read them again. I wanted to quilt as well as piece, so I first concentrated on learning to hand quilt (I think there is something so beautiful about a hand-stitched quilt), and have now moved on to learning machine quilting. There are so many wonderful books on quilting, and many cover the entire process from start to finish. I hope you will try it!
