Posted Hey Everyone I've been thinking about taking up quilting, and I was wondering if anyone could suggest any books, sites, ect. that would be helpful for starters. I came across this really interesting craft site for young adults (like myself) that got my creative wheels turning: http://www.makeitu.com/ . If anyone can suggest any sources like this site---that's geared towards a younger audience--- I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks much!

Posted Hide Post Hi Sheilao and welcome to Answerpool. I used to do a lot of quilting and can highly recommend this book. It has excellent diagrams and projects showing all the steps needed very clearly. It lists all the equipment you need too! Try places like ebay for equipment. Lots of people try new hobbies then pack it in and sell their equipment. One thing I will recommend is that you buy a really good quality rotary cutter. Cheap ones don't last very long. They are much better than scissors, all the pieces end up the same size. Good luck with your new hobby, let us know how you go on.
