Is anyone else having problems getting the video to play? I signed up for the free class, can get the course menu, can select introduction. When I click on the big arrow it goes to a bare-bones type screen and does nothing. I don't get a "loading" message or anything.

I also signed up and completed Block 1 & 2...I was surprised that all the months are listed with the method used on the blocks.. February is half square triangles... Using same background fabric and scraps for the focus fabrics looking forward to photos postings

Thanks for the link. I sent it on to my beginner friend. I think the January lesson was presented in a no - pressure way and the blocks are fun and easy to do. She gives enough instruction to make the quilt accurately and she is a pleasant presenter. It is a nice introduction.

I am enrolled and made my two blocks. I didn't square them up yet as I'm just waiting until I get them all done. I'm using navy blue, white solids, and blue and white floral print. I might throw in some red. I like the 2 blocks a month method. I have a feeling there is a method to their madness and the blocks will get more difficult each month. It will be fun to see pictures of finished product.

I squared up my first block a bit wonky, but I like it. Will do the second one this weekend and post a pic. Maybe we need to start a "group" for this project, where we can post pics and share info. what do y'all think?

I absolutely LOVE Craftsy. One of the best online class schools, for sure. I just got an e-mail from them with a new class that's coming up - don't remember the exact title but it's about quilting large quilts on a domestic machine. I'll be signing up for that one! (Waiting for a sale price, though...)
