I've wanted to get into quilting too, but I felt that I would need a sewing machine and lots of time - both I don't have now. One of my good friends from grad school started quilting by making baby quilts. She said it was easier to handle since they were smaller.
You could do a hand sewn quilt. I worked on one my mother put aside when I was in high school. It was easy, but I got overwhelmed when it came piecing it together and gave up.
