    Hi Belinda... Welcome to Quilters Paradise
    This is a great place to learn to quilt... you can ask questions and the experienced quilters will be able to guide and direct you. Check out the tutorial section of this board. A simple quilt to start with is a 9-patch There are a lot of variations that are very pretty.
