I teach in my home. I found this thread very helpful. I teach techniques. Some of my students want to learn something every week. Some want to make the same thing several times. I encourage them to make new things or at least tweak the pattern so they are learning new techniques. Some of my ladies have been coming for 6 years. I asked one day if she felt the need to keep coming back. She said she was still learning. Recently I did a class just on boarders. Soon I will do one on bindings. I made a take home informational binder on binding for my students. I also own a HQ16 so my students can finished their quilts. I have students on every level. I have one that gets discouraged and "hates to bother me" so she will ask other people "how to"......... I've encouraged her to always call me, if she is bothering me on that particular day I will call her back. I respect my students time and money and encourage them to do sewing at home. Some will some won't.
