I would recommend MSQC tutorials because Jenny Doan starts with precuts which will eliminate lots of the pitfalls for a first quilt. Then, if you love the process, you can build on the confidence you gain from the first experience. Buy a good cutting mat, a good rotary cutter and a ruler with a lip on it. Don't buy too many tools until you see a need for them. Good luck and be sure to keep us in the loop as you go forward.
