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!

...and search for applique too.
ask us questions.
we all do things a wee bit differently so you'll get lots of good info here.
try what you think you can manage.
try different methods too.
i use different methods for different designs.

Flower, freezer paper, top, light interfacing, simple needle-turn.

I learned to applique myself. Worked hard on learning the "right" way
with needle-turn. My fingers are rocks. Approximately. Now I do mostly
raw-edged machine applique. I like it, the "feel" suits my
personality. :) Give her a taste and let her find what suits her.
Settle on one way. Make sure she knows there are alternatives and how
to find those if she wants. Then give her room.

More hugs, and soothing wishes,
Sunny

I like tapioca better than oatmeal for a treat, but oatmeal is more
sustaining. Especially with brown sugar on top. That said, you've got
enough good advice here to teach a horse to applique. I can't add a
word except to tell you that tapioca is best served warm and with
kindness.

Hugs,
Sunny
