ask us questions.
we all do things a wee bit differently so you'll get lots of good info here.

I taught myself from books and magazines 20+ years ago. The hardest part
was forming the stitch correctly- the different preparations for the
appliqué weren't hard at all. You can do it if you are able to learn that
way. Also, there are videos on the internet that you can watch. Youtube
has a ton if you search for quilting and/or quilt. Good luck!
