I wish tutorial videos slowed down a bit and showed good techniques.

I get a kick out of some of them - where in one video they will "always press to the dark side" and then the next video will demonstrate something and not only do they not stop and press the seam - but there are folds or wrinkles in the fabric they are starting from. :-)

I love the videos on YouTube, etc. and am amazed at what you can learn (quickly) or peak your interest on a subject - and if you want to know more, Google the subject, etc. Sometimes I learn something I didn't even know I wanted to learn but followed it off something else. :-)
