I wanted to take a class mostly to get out of the house and meet new people (I'm a 28yo stay at home mom) but couldn't find one that worked when dh would be able to be home with the kids. I faqua a modern quilt guild instead that I learn a ton from! Ours has no dues and the ladies are super sweet and so helpful. I took a yarn spinning class once and was so disappointed, so I'm leery of spending big $$ now when I can YouTube what I need to learn.
