Besides Whimsiquills try some of the other quilling supplies websites. There is also a group at Yahoo Groups. (Go to Yahoo, click on groups, type search word quill or quilling.) You have to give your info but they can be full of info. They also have a 2nd site that is "quillpictures" that you must join separately - a definite must-do. Quillers post photos of there work and some can be truly inspiring.
Hope you are enjoying the craft. It is amazingly inexpensive, versatile, portable and interesting to those who have never seen it before.
There are a million sites with free quilting patterns on them and there are also many sites that will help you in organizing your quilt and offering many ideas on putting one together. I too just started quilting, and have found this to be very helpful. I enjoy doing it. It's tons of fun.
