Print out an online tutorial or get a basic quilting book from your library or bookstore, study them and then pracrice, practice, practice with the book open next to you.
No special tools are needed, much better to buy a book that covers ALL the basics of quiltmaking so you'll have it for reference through the years. I've been quilting since the 70's and still refer back to my 'starter' books when I'm having a problem with something. The basics haven't changed and the books are priceless.
