I have never quilted. I don't know how to sew... do I need to find somebody to teach me or csn I learn online? Any help learning all about quilting would be much appreciated!

So many great tutorials on line so many videos. And if you prefer more hands on learning there are many quilting guilds / groups that usually meet once a month or so. You can ask at your local quilt fabric shop.

x2 Someone is always willing to share, and if you can see and touch as you begin the learning process it goes so much easier to learn than just trying to get it from a book or magazine. That said, books and magazines are exactly how I learned because there were no quilt classes back then, nobody in my family helped me because none of them quilted, and home video cameras were barely a glimmer of an idea in someone's mind. When I started quilting it was before the Bi-Centennial, which seemed to be when the resurgence of all things "homestead-y" started.

I always tell new quilters the same thing - Relax. It's quilting, not brain surgery. If you make a mistake the sun will still come up tomorrow and the birdies will still sing! For me it's always more about the process than it is about the end product.
