    Yes, and I was very pleased. I did have a little technical difficulty, but they worked with me to resolve it, even offering a refund if I wasn't happy. There are some free classes if you want to try it out. They often have sales, so unless you have to have a particular class right away, no need to pay full price.

    Yes I have tried several Craftsy classes and enjoyed them...the advantage is that you can repeat them and they are always available anytime you want to watch them...the 2012 Block of the month was really a treat with Amy Gibson. And the Carol Doak paper piecing has been a great way to learn and try new techniques for paper piecing..and other students post their results so it's fun to see what others are doing in the class. Watch for the discounts to sign up for the classes to really get the best deal.

    I'm enrolled in over twenty classes in Craftsy. About five of them are free. Go to Quilting on the Craftsy site and enroll in Craftsy's Free BOM 2012 and 2013. There are also a few more free quilting classes. The classes you pay for, they will give you your money back if you are not 100% satisfied. Also, Click on the class and you can find out more about it. And if you Google the teacher of the class you want to take and find her blog, they offer 50% off the class. That's how I enroll in all my classes. Also, you can ask Craftsy for a 50% discount. They always have discounts on many classes at different times. Don't pay $39 for a class.

    Yes, I have taken about 5 craftsy classes - I was very happy with the classes - and its great because you can watch it over and over - I think its absolutely worth every penny.

    I've learned from the classes I've taken there. I like being able to go back and review the lessons whenever I want to.

    I've taken several. Most were good, but one I didn't get anything out of at all. I got a refund with no hassles.
