I haven't seen the part of not having access to new content or classes. I have purchased from Craftsy over the years and received great service and value. I also added the free classes they offered along the way. As a company purchased by such a larger entity (NBC), there was bound to be changes, some positive and some thorny. Just like the transition when Fabric.com was purchased by Amazon, there were changes. The one class I downloaded from Craftsy for free - Creative Quilt Backings by Elizabeth Hartman- was excellent. Since I prefer both written and visual teaching methods, the online classes make the process easier. Guess there is more to come...
