Ask Penny Halgren

Do you have any small projects to start with? I feel I am not ready to make a quilt.

There are many free patterns available on our http://www.how-to-quilt.com/patterns/free-quilt-patterns.shtml website and on www.thequiltingcoach.com
 
It's good you are wanting to start with something small. 
 
Starting small allows you to become familiar with your sewing machine, the quarter-in seam allowance and your confidence in sewing.
 
Take any of the patterns available (or a variety of four or six) and start by making a small wall hanging or table topper.
 
Get used to cutting sewing and creating nice seams and arranging the blocks in a manner that is pleasing to you.
 
If you get stuck, remember we're only an email away.


Happy Quilting!
