One of my favorite quilting books is "The Complete Guide To Quilting". It covers all aspects of quilting from designing quilt blocks and appliquiing to binding and finishing, giving quilters the tools to tackle any project with confidence. This is a good resource to get started and well on your way to creating that keepsake quilt you've dreamed about. Just imagine how proud your family and friends will be when they see what you accomplished, not to mention the satisification and confidence you gained from the experience.

If you are eager to get started immediately, down-loadable e-books are great way to get started immediately. Simply click on the book of interest and download it to your computer in a matter of seconds.
Another source of quilting instruction is available in the form of CDs
One advantage to CDs is they are easy to store and the instructions can almost always be printed.
Quilt patterns are yet another source. Most come with simple, easy to follow instructions, however they are not quite detailed as books or CDs. Some basic knowledge and skill is assumed.
Which Ever method you prefer, be sure to start with the proper instruction and save yourself hours of reworking and grief by doing it right the first time.
