When I started quilting in 2007, KZfaq existed, but not in the capacity it does today. So I taught myself to quilt with a beginner quilting book, grocery store magazines and Love of Quilting on PBS.
All those are great, but not a great substitute for in-person learning or in-depth beginner quilting video courses like the one we created to cover all the basics that you just don't know when you get started.
So I made A LOT of mistakes ... like sewing a perfect 3/8 inch seam for a year-and-a-half because I didn't know the standard presser foot that came with my machine wasn't a quarter-inch foot.
I've compiled 15 of my top things I didn't know when I started quilting to amuse and possibly educate you depending on where you're at in your quilting journey. Plus you can see some of the first quilts I created.
I hope you enjoy it, and we'll be back with a quilting tutorial later this week!
