Firstly, pick out the sort of fabric for the quilt. Generally quilts are manufactured using 100 percent cotton or cotton mixes. Cotton is a very durable, spacious and natural material to use, it is usually not highly inflammable and is not allergic, unlike some synthetical fibers such as rayon and nylon. Synthetics and cotton mixes are sometimes a little more difficult to use since they cockle and crinkle far more than 100 percent cotton does, even so they are sold in a quite large assortment of bright colours and paints and can be breathtaking in appearance. Synthetics can be inconvenient to quilt though because they have a "cellular" feeling, in this way if you are a beginner, it would be better for you to use 100 percent cotton or cotton mixes if it is possible.

When determining the pattern and color, you should pay attention to what kind of mood you are planning the quilt to make. When selecting coloration and the sort of tissue you need to aggregate the color with your chosen pattern. A brilliant advice is to always purchase a little bit more than you are planning to use.
