i am not a fan of trying to learn from videos but i realize it's the wave of the future.

one of the many things that drive me batty about them is the fact that people who are famous for being experts rush through the steps and churn out slop we're supposed to perceive as good examples.
i think that's a great dis-service to new quilters. since a great many of these "teachers" are hawking products and hoping to boost sales i think they owe it to the viewers to do it right.

i have seen only one video "teacher" take her time to thoroughly explain each step. most importantly - she stops when she has made a mistake. she explains how the mistake happened, how to fix it, and how to avoid it in the future. i wish i could remember her name.
