oh how fun!!
I would say find out if there are any sewing classes offered at joanns or a local fabric store. Sometime the local jr collage will have them for community classes.
Take your time, READ the directions. Do not get discouraged... you should see some of my first efforts

Practice does make perfect!!
Good luck
