I am sad that you had a bad experience with classes. I love taking classes and learning new techniques and meeting new people. There are always so many new ideas that come with each class. I think it is so fun to see how different each person thinks about a pattern and the different fabric used and the way they put it together. I don't think I have been to a `class that I didn't get the help I needed. Don't quit taking classes just because one wasn't up to your expectations.
