A member of my guild had the same experience. She has been going for 12 years and this potentially was the first time she was not able to get into the class. I didn't realize you had to be on the site within minutes of the time they open for registration to get a class.

My friend got the class she wanted. She had the page loaded up, filled out, ready to click submit or whatever exactly at the opening time. I imagine that's how most do it to get the class spots so fast.

It is always disappointing when you have your heart set on something, and even decided to spend the money and then the class is sold out. So sorry.

So sorry you couldn't get into classes you want, but isn't it exciting that quilting is that popular today?

UPDATE: I checked again today...and got into 2 classes! My BFF had the same experience! I find it hard to believe they had cancellations already...maybe a computer glitch? Thanks for your support. francie

Put your name on a waiting list.
They may have some cancellations
as the year wears on.

This reminds me of time I tried to get permits to hike Half Dome. I had heard they go pretty quick so I had my computer at the site as soon as they became available. I hit the day and the number of permits I wanted, clicked enter and, when everything was refreshed all the permits were gone! They had 300 available for each day. Our whole vacation had been planned around that date.

I did a little more research and found a board where people were selling them for the face value (1.50) and was able to get 4 permits for a day that was close enough to ours - so it worked out after all. Crazy! Okay I've digressed.....now back to your regular topic.....

happy this worked out for you.
