Anyone have any links for quilting how to's?

My mom has decided she would like to learn how to quilt, but she no longer has internet. So, while she is at my house learning, I can just watch and learn.

Thanks!

The Quilter's Cache - Marcia Hohn's free quilt patterns!
Quilting - Free Quilt Patterns - Learn How to Make a Quilt

And for inspiration
Quilter's News Network


And I can't say enough about the library. I believe the section she would want will be in the # 746

Good luck

If she gets really into it and wants a book, The Complete Idiot's Guide to Quilting, by Laura Ehrlich, is surprisingly good. Thorough, basic, and well-illustrated. It has some full-size patterns in it, too, so she could get started.

I second the Quilter's Cache!
