Yes they are nice, but wait for the sales when they are half priced, never pay full price, and when they are like cheap like 20 dollars buy a few. I like ann petersen( I am in the curves class and the beyond FMQ class), I took applique by machine class, the fat quarter class, so far I like them all. Best thing is if you have a problem they refund your money. One of the instructors in one of the sewing classes wasn't answering my questions, they refunded my money, let me keep the class, and made the professor respond to me within a few days. You can read the reviews and they will usually tell you how a class is geared
