Hey EveryoneI'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!
I think the best book on seminole patchwork is "The seminole patchwork Book"by Cheryl Bradkin A great way to start is to find a quilting store in your area. I have one in my town and have learned a lot of tips from the ladies ( most are older) that are helpful. I love quilting but it is sadly a hobbie that few young people are into these days. Most of the books are geared toward older women.
