I've purchased several other classes and think it's a good investment. Less expensive than most local classes, because you aren't "locked into" buying fabrics can use what you already have. Plus the convenience is great! Access anytime!

Ooh, I'll have to take her classes. I'm left handed and it's always difficult/confusing to convert right handed cutting to left handed.

I've done a number of their classes. Got something from all of them. Got a number on sale which made them even better.

So far have only enrolled in a couple of the freebies, but have really enjoyed it. It's great because you can download the lesson materials and watch the video at any time, so I can do this when I have time between my other myriad projects. Or at 2:00 in the morning when I can't sleep!

I have really enjoyed the Craftsy classes that I enrolled in and I have learned a lot. I agree with the others: wait for a sale if you can. They are very frequent and you save up to 50% off!

I've bought a couple of classes but haven't done them yet. Go look at the patterns. There are a lot of free ones but the others are very reasonably priced. I have ten pages of patterns for lots of things with a cart waiting to go through checkout. I bought a bargello pattern for $3.99. A lot of designers just starting out but some are more experienced. We need to encourage them.

its a great site with great support. they have lots of free classes as well. If you don't like the class you bought for any reason within 30 days its guaranteed, so no worry about losing anything.

I have signed up for quite a few classes, too....The BEST classes I've ever taken. I could never have FMQed without them. I don't or haven't made "their" projects yet, but use the info all the time!
