    Do you have a link. I saw a spiral like table runner that I absolutely love and I wonder if this is it.

    Cool! If you feel like sharing anything about your experience, I'd really appreciate it. Is it the basic one or the second one you're doing?

    it is the 101 class.. I have not participated with the talking but I have done the lessons and I get it now if that makes sense. She really explains things and if you have questions she is REALLY there and helps. I have seen other peoples pages and she is truely there to help you. I have found it very inforamtive and plan to take the 102 class.

    Sounds great. Thank you Dawn. Are you posting pictures of your spirals here? :-D Just curious!

    One more question: do you have to complete all the lessons in their proper week, or can you still do the work and ask questions later, or even after the four weeks are up? I'm usually good at keeping to time commitments but this year, some of my weeks will be very full.

    I honestly don't know how long after the class is over that she is there to answer the questions. That said I did call her once and she answered all my questions over the phone so there are ways to access her. I would say print out the weeks work and do it later but know that she will be there for you.

    I'm sooo glad you asked this question! I have been looking at her books and her work and I'm blown away by it! I don't have the time to committ right now, but I really want to do one of her classes I think...well, at least get her book and try to figure it out. Her work is awesome!
