    A warm welcome from Southern California. The first thing to do is try to sew an constant seam allowance close to a 1/4". Accurate seam will come with practice. I agree with Tartan, start out making a block into a pot holder. My first quilt was king size quilt and that was a BIG mistake. I hope you find as much inspiration as I do from this site.
