Of course I am going to be telling the group about this forum!!!
Also - if you mention a shop, could you please take a moment to look at their site ansd see if they will ship to Ireland? It would be a shame if we got loads of great ideas and then couldn't use them!!! I would check myself but I have very poor internet here up inthe hills of Ireland and you may well do it a lot faster than I can!!!
Thanks so much in anticipation of some interesting responces!!!

I go to:
Karen McTavish's site http://www.designerquilts.com/mctavish.html when I need inspiration for quilting
http://www.youtube.com when I want to watch how someone does a technique - http://www.missouriquiltco.com/ has some awesome ones!
https://www.fabshophop.com/main.asp when I want to look at many different shops

Two of my favorite for free tutorials. These would be great for new quilters.

This quilting board is the best place I have found. There are all sorts of tutorials and interesting help. You can also find links to other useful sites that have free patterns. I don't think you can go wrong recommending this site.
