How do I start quilting?
So now that I have more free time, I want to take up quilting! The problem is that I have no idea where to start and what supplies I need. I have seen a few websites, but they contain so much information and I don't know what I need for ME, a super beginner. 
Can any of you guys guide me to the right direction? Thank you in advance! 
What I found very informative was to hang out at the Local Quilt Shop. The lady was not very busy and she was able to show me several piecing techniques - what quilt in the ditch is and how things are laid out. Good luck - I'm fairly new to it myself but find that I am loving it.
