I have taken that class, too. I don't actually do the project, but use her techniques to practice on quilt sandwiches. I think she is awesome in the details she shows. If you go on her web site, she offers her Craftsy classes for 19.99.
I have been wanting to sign up for Angels Water class, too. So you really don't have to do the project to learn- great references if you are looking for something specific!

I signed up for that class, but haven't done it yet. Concentrating on Leah Day's free FMQ project which is fabulous!

I hesitated for a few months before I plunged in. I buy when they are on sale and have not regretted it yet. There are also FREE classes and I've taken some of those. Several things I like: you can watch when it's convenient for you, you can replay sections as much as you want, you can ask questions and the instructor plus other classmates will answer you, you can see what others are doing for their practice or projects as well as share your own, the camera angles are in close so you can see clearly what the instructor is doing. I have not experienced this but others have said if a class was not what they were expecting or wanted - they got a refund from Craftsy. If you have interests that aren't served by taking a class where you live , this is a perfect solution. I used to buy a book to learn a new technique and go from there. With Craftsy classes, since it is interactional, you can get an answer to a question in a day or two or less. I had a question for Cindy Needham and it was beyond what she knew so she ended up asking another instructor and got back to me in a few days. It was great to be able to have that access of information.

Any ideas on FMQ without drawing first? I have MS and can't draw! I have mastered stiple, but would really like to learn feathers.

I also took this class and really enjoyed it, she is a good teacher and she is funny too.

I just bought the Craftsy FMQ class on sale for $19.99 for future reference when I finally make it to that point on a quilt. Hoping it helps me out a lot.

I second this. I've found several youtube videos helpful, but the full length, detailed class is good, and paying a little for it (if you're like me) provides a little extra incentive to stick with it. Craftsy runs specials frequently. Get on their mailing list. When you first sign up they offer a few free classes to choose from, and a sample class will help you decide if you're likely to find them useful. You have unlimited access, so you can go back for a refresher as needed.

I like that they have teachers who go around the country teaching similar classes in person, but if you take one of those live ones, you'll have the inspiration and the exposure, but you can't repeat at will on your own schedule. This is an opportunity for some of the best teachers to reach many more students than they could possibly have reached in a lifetime before Internet. I hope they know what a difference they're making by sharing their skills!

I took Peggy Martin' "quick strip paper piecing" and made her version of a mariner's compass. It was the first time I did paper piecing and the project came out quite well. It was a challenge for our quilt guild. I've since made another mariner's compass by Brenda Hennings using Peggy Martin's techniques and it too came out well. I think with paper piecing that you need to do a small project every so often to keep the technique in you mind. I struggled with the second star until I went back and watched the video again. Good luck finding something you can do. By the way, the Indian Summer pattern is a mariner's compass. I would never have been able to do the two pieced quilts using templates. Sometimes my frustration level just gets too high.

I LOVE Craftsy classes! Not only do you get lots of instructions, instructor support, downloadable printable resources, but each class has patterns included - sometimes lots of patterns. So $20 to $30 bucks gets you a lot of stuff!

My favourite teachers are Leah Day, Cindy Needham, Kimberly Einmo and Jenny Doan. (I haven't tried Angela Walters class.) Not all of them 'agree' on everything which is actually liberating! Find the method/style that suits YOU....and run with it!

I watch the videos instead of watching TV! A quilting mini-series!

I forgot Camille Roskelly - she has lots of great tips... mostly on working with pre-cuts.

I have taken and am currently taking several Craftsy classes. I love it. Once you sign up for the class, it is yours forever to watch and rewatch whenever you want. The teachers are great!
