Start to Learn Patchwork & Quilting

It has already been years ago I was interested in patchwork and quilting, but never had a way to learn as a beginner.
No one of my friends here could quilt so I would be glad if some of you that already expert in quilting give me some suggestion.
Yesterday I was looking for a patchwork & quilting book for a beginner at a bookstore and I found this.

Take a look at those steps...






Is this a good book for a beginner (that could only sew straight lines :) ? Thank you so much for all your comments. I really appreciate it.

  2. I have quilted and from what I can see this book looks like a nice simple start... I am going to see if I can find the books I started with... It has been awhile since I quilted anything. I am sure you would do a great job:)

  5. Hi Henny, Thanks for visiting my blog! After looking at the book you purchased, this seems like a great place to begin quilting. My best advice is to keep it simple. Start with a simple pattern with no points to piece together as your 1st quilt top and you should not have any problems. If you can sew a straight line you can do this!! I can't wait to see what you come up with....Good Luck!
