    I made paper pieced birds and then added enough borders around the edges to make them the size I wanted. Then I used an old oval placemat to trim. Used Warm and Natural batting so they would lie (lay?) flat. Did a quick turn, some quilting and they were done. Fast and easy.

    My first quilting project was a rail fence place mat. It was a lot of fun & very easy to put together. If you google free quilt patterns beginner you can find bunches of easy patterns.
    Good luck :thumbup:
