Welcome from Vancouver Island. Bonnie Hunter at Quiltville.com has a Free Patterns tab with lots of options - from simple to complex. She works scrappy but you wouldn't have to if you didn't want that all that variety. I agree with the others that a small project might be the best way to restart - a great feeling of accomplishment sooner rather than later. One of my first was a lap size 34" by 34" backed with flannel and a flannel for batting = easy.

Perhaps an idea would be to start on smaller useful projects ie placemats, coasters, tablemats, shopping totes, hot pads, purse sized tissue covers, drawstring bags, journal covers, snap top bags etc. There are hundreds of small easy sewing items out there on the "net" and all of which can be given as gifts. You may even be able to start sewing for a charity group.

Hopefully you find your sewing "mojo" soon and enjoy your fabric and what you make with it.
