welcome from OK.
The #1 book I always suggest to NEW quilters is the Fons & Porter book "complete quilter's guide" http://www.amazon.com/Quilters-Compl...9074070&sr=1-6

It has it ALL from the first shopping trip to the binding and beyond. If you can find it Spiral bound that is best as it can lie flay while you work from it.

Have fun!
