You've finally talked your friend into making their first quilt. You want them to be successful; so, what block would you suggest they make?
A log cabin, an Ohio star, a four-patch? Do you have a particular pattern you think they should use?
Would you show them how to draft a block or send them straight to Alex's Start Quilting?
Submit a comment and let TQS know how you'd get that newbie up on their feet and off and running into the world of quilting.
