\nHow do I start quilting? Your first quilt will be a terrific learning experience. You might want to start small. Consider making a lap quilt or baby quilt for your first project. This way you can get a feel for the way you need to sew with your machine or by hand. You can also look for simple patterns that you can replicate with step-by-step instructions until you’re comfortable with the process.

 

\nWhat tools do I need for quilting? Some basic supplies you’ll want are a trusty cutting mat, a rotary cutter, straight and safety pins, a set of quilting rulers, thread, fabric and needles or a sewing machine. You’ll also want to take a look at your pattern or project and assess what your specific project needs.

 

\nHow do you use quilting tools? Start by placing your cutting mat on a flat, sturdy surface. If you can stand, find a standing height work table for better control of the cutter. Align your fabric along the ruler for accurate cuts. If you choose to cut your own fabric, take care not to cut through too many layers. Rotary cutters work very similarly to a pizza cutter so simply roll it along the line you’re trying to cut. Rotary cutters can manage a lot of fabric, but pushing too hard can mean a dangerous slip and a nasty cut so keep an eye out for your hands and fabric.
