You can take help from below: controller :

public with sharing class QuoteController {

public Quote q {get;set;}
public string qName{ get; set;}


public QuoteController(ApexPages.StandardController sc) {
    q = new Quote();
    q = (Quote)sc.getRecord();

   } 
public Pagereference saveQuote() {
q.name = qName;
      q.opportunityid = '0069000000OaWIM';     
    insert q;
    pagereference pageref = new pagereference('https://ap1.salesforce.com/'+q.id);
    pageref.setredirect(true);
    return pageref;

}    
}

vf page:

 <apex:sectionHeader title="Quote" subtitle="New Quote"/>
 <apex:form id="formId" >

  <apex:pageBlock id="pgBlock" title="Quote " >
   <apex:pageBlockButtons id="pgBlkBtn" >
    <apex:commandButton id="saveBtn" value="Save" action="{!saveQuote}"  />
    <apex:commandButton id="cnclBtn" value="Cancel" action="{!cancel}" />
   </apex:pageBlockButtons>
   <apex:pageBlockSection id="pgBlkSection1" title="Quote Information" columns="2">
    <apex:pageBlockSectionitem >
     <apex:outputLabel value="Quote Name" />
     <apex:inputtext value="{!qName}" />
    </apex:pageBlockSectionitem>


    </apex:pageBlockSection>
  </apex:pageBlock>
 </apex:form>

</apex:page>

Let me know if this helps.

An option which I think you'll find quite helpful for you needs is to install the unmanaged package version of Custom Quote Sync from the App Exchange. It has a Quote controller that you can always clone and customize to suit your specific needs. It comes with a VisualForce PDF template which can also be cloned and customized. I and others I know, use it all the time with clients as a basis for creating customized PDF Quote generators that sync with Opportunity.

There's also another unmanaged package called Simple Quote v1.0 which allows you to generate a quote instantly as a pdf and send it via email in 2 clicks. You can easily customize the template to use it for orders or invoices. Either of these should suit your needs.
