    Before you buy books ... see what your local library has on beginning quilting. Read the tutorials on this Board, master the scant 1/4" seam ... but most of all, have fun!

    Welcome from central valley of California.

    Best thing is to take a beginning class at a local fabric or quilting store. Small initial $$, and you can decide if its really for you or not.

    Welcome from another Aussie. I went to my LQS and took a class. I did do a full sized single quilt but it was all done by hand and I learnt alot. Maybe your LQS might have different classes available or you could find out if there is a quilting group where you live. I'm sure you would be welcomed....Welcome to the board, it is a wealth of information.
