I’m so sorry! I’ve been sick the past few days and this thread sure has grown!
To answer a few questions, I am new to quilting as in never quilted before, but not new to sewing. I have been sewing clothes for years. I already have a sewing machine.
I have gone to the only LQS in the area and found a few popular names and can attest to the feel of the fabric. So I will start from there when it comes to ordering online.
“Check with your LQS to see if they have groups or guilds that you could talk to about your questions as well.”
That’s a very good idea! I don’t know why I didn’t think of asking the shop owner and employees at the LQS about various fabrics! I’m sure there’s other information they could give me that I haven’t thought to ask about.
I will definitely post about my quilt if not when I start, when I finish!
I'm still reading through the last few pages and all of the advice has been great!
