I would like to make a quilt for my hubby as a Christmas present. Can anyone tell me what are some basic things that I will need to get started? I have a sewing machine, and know how to sew well, but I don't have any of the other "stuff" I might need!

Any advice would be appreciated :D

Here are a couple of websites that might help you out:

Quilting Lessons from Sew-Whats-New.com (http://sew-whats-new.com/CMS/index.php?option=content&task=category&sectionid=2&id=7&Itemid=32)

List of supplies on DIYNetwork.com (http://www.diynetwork.com/diy/cr_quilting_techniques/article/0,2025,DIY_13773_2270947,00.html)

Not sure whether either of those sites mentions this, but with quilting, try to get fabrics and thread that are 100% cotton. :)
