Over at Craft and Fabric Free Patterns there are 3 pages of very valuable Quilting Lessons for you to look over. On page one you will find how to assemble your quilt layers, batting, backing, binding, cutting, and how to make a hanging sleeve. Next on page two we have lattice/sashing, machine accessories, and points. Points can be very tricky to get right so be sure to give that one a good look.
Last but not least we have on page three we have machine and hand quilting, seam allowance, speed quilting, squaring down, throat plate, tie off, tools and lighting. Of course you may not want to try all of these techniques yet but it is always nice to sort of look ahead to what you will be able to do in the future. One of my favorite links on this site is Puppy and Cats Quilt, and there are others that you may want to give a try.
