It's too bad about the class but a good thing you didn't let it put you off quilting. Like many of the quilters on this wonderful site, I learned how to sew at my mother's knee and as a young adult, made lots of my daughters' clothes. Years later I decided to take a class on how to make a quillow in an adult ed class. It seems there were a bunch of women who always took the class their friend the instructor was teaching so it was just one big hen party for them. Not only did I not learn anything, the instructor actually had me put a piece in the wrong pace. I was so frustrated that I had to pull the whole thing apart and learn to do it myself. BUT...I have also taken classes that I would have gladly paid ten times for. Just glad you didn't give up!
