There's lots of books out there, lots of help here on board, it's not really "necessary" to take a class. There's a lot of people on board that have never had a "class". Lots of information on the net also, maybe Goggle Quilting 101. Welcome from northeast CA. Glad you joined us. This is a great place for beginner or experienced.

If you have high speed internet go to this website.
http://quilterstv.com It is a great place to see the experts way of quilting on video for free. You can get complete instruction quilting books at the bookstores on sale frequently for 5.98. I have the Better Homes and Gardens Complete Guide to Quilting that I got for 5.98 at Borders. Eleanor Burns is the best for teaching beginners. http://quiltinaday.com Welcome to the world of quilting. |
Hello, and welcome from Missouri! A local quilt shop is a good place to ask questions. If there is a guild, there should be lots of people there who will be glad to help. The library is a good place to look at books before you buy, both your local library and a guild library!

Eleanor Burns Quilt in a day books, she does have a beginners book not sure of the name but it walks you thru making a quilt. Her book does not have you make a quilt in a day, it only the name of the book. easy instructions its a good place to start, than you hooked on quilting, your gonna LOVE quilting its addictive!!!

I got started with a class from Hobby Lobby. It taught me the basics, then I found people that quilted and joined their group, they are very helpful. Be careful, once you get started, you'll be another addict like the rest of us. tee hee
