Hi! I'm new to the board and to quilting, so I'll be lurking around, trying to absorb everything I can.
I don't know much about sewing, and much less about quilting, but I recently had a baby and would love to make a quilt from his clothes. That, of course, means learning to sew and quilt, as well as lots and lots of practice before starting on the baby clothes quilt. My husband, in support of my interest, bought me a Singer sewing machine. (Sure, he's getting ahead of me, but he's optimistic! :mrgreen: )
Anyway, my name is Jaime, I live on a horse farm in KY and I want to learn to quilt!
Thanks for taking the time to read this, I look forward to chatting with you and learning from you!

No better way to learn than to jump right in - rejects can be used as potholders if nothing else. There are all levels of quilters here, from newbies to artists that take your breath away with their work. If you use the search function on the top of page (second blue line) you can find several threads on beginner quilts.
There are instructions for a tablerunner with pictures, that was a super-easy project. The chat room has people in most evenings, although it is notorious for bumping some of us off.
I'm looking forward to seeing your progress!

welcome to you both, be watching for an announcement from Patrice for a chat "class" on March 2. It's an easy enough for beginners pattern I believe. You can check out the thread about the double wedding ring class to get an idea of how informative it is not to mention fun.
