You basically need to know how to thread it and how to set the stitch length (speaks for itself) and tension (so that the stitches are sufficiently tight and don't pull to one side or the other of the fabric).
You also need to check you have a suitable foot and needle for the fabric you are sewing.
Bill do please practice on a few off-cuts before attacking the masterpiece itself!
p.s. Splendid to see her running!
