Hi all!! Trina here, I am 25 and I am from Alberta, Canada

I joined up today as im really interested in trying to put a quilt together probably a few : ) My grandmother was VEERRYY much into quilting however she has passed and I was fortunate enough to be left all her crafting stuff :) But the most interesting to me is the quilting I woudl love to learn but I have been looking everywhere today and everything looks SOOO complicated haha Help!!

Hi,

Welcome aboard, I am also a beginner and have learned lots of things on this board. I love surfing online to find cool videos to watch etc.

Also I created a blog to store the links that I find online to go back and reread them later on. I have attached the link, enjoy

Also was curious is you guys had some sort of Fabric trade type thing? I have all sorts of fabrics that I would love to trade for something else!

I have about 4 yards of Pink Dora the Explorer fabric, another 4 1/2 Yards of a red fabric that has dolls all on it. Aswell as a bunch Christmas ( sparkly ) Squares and other various squares. Is anyone interested in something like that ?

Welcome from Oklahoma. Don't let it overwhelm you. Go with something easy the first time. Maybe a 9 Patch or Log Cabin. You will be surprised at how fast you will get into it.
