Hello,
My name is Kathy and I live in Northern VA. Just recently started quilting again and am trying to finish old UFOs. Am also interested in learning to make appliqued quilts. Can anyone recommend a good book for applique?

I can't recommend any books, but if you go to YouTube and google Sharon Schamber, there are several applique videos that are quite good. Most of them have several parts to them, and are very informative :D:D:D

Hi Kathy and welcome to the board.

I moved from northern VA 4 years ago. There are so many great quilt guilds and fabulous quilt shops there! Take advantage of them to further your skills.
