Should I subscribe to National Quilters Circle
National Quilters Circle is offering one year of access to their videos for $8. Has anyone viewed their videos and would this be worthwhile for a fairly new quilter who wants to increase her quilting?

I feel like we discussed this even more recently but can't find it right now. I don't subscribe to anything, since there is so much free stuff on You Tube. Eleanor Burns puts all her shows out for free on her quilt in a day website. |
I took a 1 year. Got some good information. Just hope I remember to cancel before automatic renewal at full price
|
I think it's a bait and hook. There is so much for FREE on the internet especially with U-tube videos.
|
I believe they have videos on youtube, so I wouldn't be inclined to join to access videos
|
I did, but after the year was up did not get it again many of shows would not play well kept cutting off in the middle, it was okay just was not as good as QNNTV and The Quilt Show. Hey $8 get it and if you like it keep it going.
|
I subscribed for the <$8 price. Wanted QNTV but it was too high for my budget, i watch Youtube but an awful lot of their videos are really old, several years old, most of them, and a lot have an accent that I find hard to understand and follow direction. I have not found any Eleanor Burns videos that are free. So for <$8, I'll take a chance.

I have been a member of Quilters Circle for two years. I have enjoyed their video's and DVDs. I also have enjoyed talking to other members on the blogs and face book. Like sassysews2 says try it, you might like it.

I haven't learned all that much from them. They don't seem to have many new techniques and or projects.
|
I would not spend the money. I did not find many of the videos to be informative. I will not renew. Like others have said, there is much on the internet for free.
|
Some of the videos are better than others. I paid $8 last year, cancelled before the automatic renewal, and got this year for $6. I think it's worth anything under $10. Just remember to cancel before the renewal because I definitely don't think it's worth $40.

I called to cancel before automatic renewal and they offered me the lower price
|
I know this thread is several months old but wanted to add this. I joined them in November for the $6 price. Never again! I just found out the company that handles them had their data base breached. ALL my info was compromised. In February of this year I had my bank account hacked. I thought I had come across a gas card skimmer or something. This explains it. Now to take the letter the company that bank. What a mess this is and all for a stinking $6 subscription!
|
Oh my, that's really scary.......how to avoid something like that from happening?
|
I subscribed at the $6 price, but I keep getting these emails about upgrading my premium membership. If I only knew then what I know now, I would not have done it. Have not had time to look at any of their videos yet. I was hacked thru the Fed govt. So far no troubles but I sure keep an eye out on my stuff.:mad:

I cannot recommend them. I took the trial first year Premium subscription for $8.00. Tried to find good videos, but did not. So never used it after the initial month and forgot I had it. They were supposed to notify me when it was time for renewal and the new price so I could choose whether to renew. I never received the notice, and later found out they went into my credit card account and charged $39.99 without my permission!
Ooops, I just checked and I was wrong. They actually took $44.99 from my credit card!!! |
