Welcome from central Alabama. Feel free to ask away, chances are someone else is wondering the same thing. There will be someone here with an answer for you. Just remember, quilting is supposed to be fun, not perfect. Some of my best loved quilts have the most "learning opportunities" in them.

Welcom!! This is a great place to start. I have learned so much from reading the Quilting board.

You got it. This is one of the most helpful places you can find. People either have the answer or know where to go to get it and will give you a wesite. I've seen some great tutorials and instructional websites referred to on here! I love it and "sew" will you!
