    I happened to be looking on our local Craigslist as I was looking for a smaller folding table. Not being able to find what I was looking for I happened to click on the "free" items to see if there was anything I was interested in.

    A woman was giving away Quilting Magazines. I just picked them up. She was wonderful and was apparently cleaning out some of her things. Her house was so warm and cozy with quilts all over the place. On the back of chairs, table runners, etc.

    I ended up with a combination of over 30 quilting magazines and books! I am going through them and there are so many ideas.

    I start my first quilting class tomorrow which is a beginner's boot camp. I quess you make pretty much what you want.
    My problem now is making a decision and then picking out the perfect material for it.
