I’ve spent the last few months searching the web for beginner quilt patterns and tutorials, today I’m going to share with you what I’ve found. If you like this post you may also enjoy this article on 3 tips for beginner quilters.
One of the MOST frequent questions I get (via blog comments and emails) from readers is, I don’t know how to quilt but I want to, what is a good place to start?
Having been a beginner quilter in the not too distant past I can totally relate to where they are coming from. The quilting world at times can seem overwhelming and a bit hard to “break into”. I’ve got a plan to help you get started (or re-started if you’ve been away for a while) with quilting that I’ll be sharing here in the next few weeks. In the meantime please enjoy these 45 quilt patterns and tutorials PERFECT for beginning quilters!

Some great quilts here, thanks for sharing!
Love this! It is hard to know where to start when you learn how to quilt. I took a quilting class and each week we made a different square that made up a big quilt of different squares, it was really fun. Mostly I like making up my own patterns and designs :)
I’m going to start a similar program here on the blog– each month a different block that will teach a few new skills. Then after a while everyone will have a finished quilt.
Hi :D….these are not only great for beginners BUT sometimes we just want to do a quick quilt :P
Get idea for gathering them together for us ….appreciate that.
(i will be passing this on to my learning to sew friends LOL )
Take care
Yeah that’s kinda what I was thinking too! Sometimes I love delving into a big project and sometimes I just need to get something done quick! It’s always nice to have a bit of a balance.
It’s hard to pick a quilt because they are all so beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
I love the triangle quilt. I am wondering what size the triangles are, and when finish, how big is the quilt? Thank you!
Hi!
What quilt pattern is between photos 12 and 13? The photo is a girl wrapped in a quilt.
Nice article, beautiful quilts!
Thank you,
Cathy
It’s the Snuggly bricks quilt. Just click on the words below the photo and it will take you to the tutorial
I’m looking for the same one. ?????
I just love quilts and I want to get into this.
Hi Melissa, I already receive your news letter, and wanted you to know I love your blog. I am mostly home bound and live, ummm look at Pinterest a lot. 😉 I love this triangle quil and am going to give it a try. I am always clicking on sewing tutorials and it lead to the Polka Dot Chair. Thanks, Camille
I really enjoyed all the pics posted and can picture using all the fabric I have laying around.
will love to see something finished soon lol
thank you for this post
Thanks.! I plan to try some of these. 😊 As an FYI: Your pin it button on images sends the iPad wonky. It opened my Pinterest app over and over while I frantically tried to close it and I finally had to shut down the iPad. The pin share at the end of the post works fine though. So check whatever plugin you use to add the button to the images, it is causing mobile issues.!
They are all so lovely! But there isn’t a link to the polaroid quilt?
