We all learn in different ways and there is so much gained from being in person together. Having said that, have you looked for internet videos? Might even be with your brand of machine.
I wasn't paying attention at the time, but I know there were a lot of recommended ruler work videos a couple of years ago -- maybe some of you out there could link or tell us about your favorite quilters and sites? Just before my vision tanked this Spring I bought a used system, no robotics. Its been months now and I am really looking forward to getting it set-up and usable and learning to use myself. I have quite a few long arm skills, having been able to use a friend's, but I particularly would like to learn to do a free form border feather.
