I just learned how to sew. I really don't know much about it...I was wondering exactly how you make just a quilt with the four squared pattern. How do you get the squars egaul to each other? And how do you actually sew it.? Do you flip the material inside out like you do with anything else? PLease...any tips would greatly help!!!

http://quilting.about.com If you scroll down, it mentions making a quilt in nine steps-this looks pretty good, and I hope you can use the information. When you make a quilt, you have to be very careful that your cutting and sewing is accurate. That's the biggest thing that happens to screw up your quilt. If you make little mistakes, your squares will be off and they won't match. For your first quilt, I would recommend blocks that aren't too intricate. You'll be so proud of yourself, that you'll want to try something with more pieces in each block. There are lots of free patterns on the net. I don't want to discourage you in any way. I'm just don't want you to get upset and quit before you get started.
