Free On-line Classes
 
Just got my Joann's on-line coupons. There's an offer for free on-line cfartsy classes. Anyone signed up for these. Is there a catch.LOL.

no catch on the craftsy classes. they are great to deal with. even if you pay for a class and are not happy, they will refund you. i had to use google chrome to get the video to work properly, but they were very helpful getting me up and running, and they did offer me a refund when i was having trouble. i've taken a few freebies and paid for a few also. i have not been disappointed in any of the ones i took.

No catch. The free classes bring you to their site & you'll see lots of fee-based classes that they hope you'll take. I've taken a couple free ones.

Where online? I don't see it anywhere.

I couldn't find any free Craftsy classes on the JoAnne's website, but I did find these free mini-classes on the Craftsy site:

Thank you, I will sign up. I get my Joann's coupons by e-mail. It's on today's e-mail, I think it's just how to clean you machine. The other is bag making basics.

Many online videos won't work internationally, and at first glance I thought you were in China (the country)! Have you tried contacting Craftsy for help?

Inspiring classes. I've been happy with all the ones I paid for and have been happy with the free classes as well.

I've paid for a couple Craftsy classes and loved them. Best of all, they'll stay in you file there forever, so you can go back to them again and again.

definitely contact them, they are very helpful in getting you going!

The only catch (And it is worth it to me) is that no matter what I look up on-line be it recipes or car parts, I get advertisements for Craftsy. It makes me laugh. I have signed up for two free classes and they have been great. Over Black Friday all of their regular classes were only $19.99. I could have cried as I was broke. Oh well, they will have more sales I am sure. Their classes are very well made and I have really enjoyed them.

I was offered a free class a few months ago so I took the ann peterson beyond basic quilting the catch for me it was only for a week or two it was taken out of my library after that I did learn some

Roberta 12-09-2013 08:50 AM

I posted this yesterday but today they load perfectly. Not sure why but glad they do.

This is the first time I responded to a question and I hope I am doing it right. I have taken quit a few of classes on www.craftsy.com. Some of them were free and some were not. I enjoy both classes very much as I can attend the classes whenever I want as there is no time limit. The instructers are very knowledgeabe and if I have any questions I am able to and get the answers quickly. I would reccomend the classes to anyone.

I followed the link and enrolled for even MORE free classes than I have previously. Now, if I just take the time to do them all. I learned to knit with a paid class on Craftsy after being frustrated for years, and I loved it!

I'm looking but not finding where to sign up. Grateful for any more information. Thanks!

CAS49OR 12-09-2013 05:30 PM

I think if you just click on a class, then click on "enroll" it will prompt you to log in or register.
