Okay, I admit it.... I am a Craftsy junkie! I love their classes, almost too much. I have learned so much and grown immensely as a quilter. There is only a couple of classes that I didn't enjoy too much and I probably should have gotten a refund, but the 30 days had passed. All in all, I highly recommend the classes, but if you have the opportunity to attend in person, that would be an extra special experience, in my book!

Craftsy is great for two main reasons. 1) At my age, I have no desire to haul my machine,supplies and notions to classes. Then I have to put them away when I get home. 2) I happen to be hard of hearing and read lips. The classes are close captioned, and I don't miss anything!

I have taken several of the Craftsy classes, they are great because they are always there anytime you need to return to them. That said, a hand on class is also wonderful. I always learn something new with every class I take . The Craftsy classes are also very reasonable.. If I may ask, who is teaching the class?

I have taken a couple of FMQ classes with Craftsy, got a lot out of them and can refer back. I also took a beginning FMQ at my local quilt store. I think I prefer the Craftsy because no one monopolizes the instructors time! I do learn a lot at the quilt shop, I just save all my questions and go in when it is not busy and ask away!! They are always nice to me! So I buy. This is the nature of a symbiotic relationship!!! lol

I have a multitude of Craftsy classes and each one is great. I save them and then can go back for review anytime I wish. Something one can not do in a live class.

I took the free BOM from Amy Gibson on Craftsy in 2012. Since then, Amy is a continual inspiration. Her new 2016 sampler is free. Excellent instructions!

I have taken three classes and really enjoyed them. I like quiet when I am learning anything, I can watch it over and over, I can stop it at anytime, I pick teachers who are very good at what they do etc.....

I have taken many since there are no classes offered anywhere near me and I highly recommend them, there was one I didn't like and I could exchange for another or get a refund no questions asked.

I have many craftsy classes on my computer. They will be there forever to look at! But, wait until they are half price. If you sign up for one and realize you made a mistake, they are great about refunds. I needed to do some major alterations for my daughter and figured I could use a refresher course on alterations. I was absolutely amazed with all the new tricks I learned from the course. Saved me a tremendous amount of work and my daughter a huge amount on a new wardrobe!

I love Craftsy classes. I like being able to watch them at my own speed and on my own schedule--and they fit my budget.
