I don't need no stinkin' class. I's apparently rather mess up and make mistakes and learn on my own. Sometimes I am a trial to myself.

I took one quilting class, at a local community college in Connecticut, about 22 years ago. I enjoyed it, and never took another one. Hmmm.

There are three LQS that I love. The classes are fun and I get to meet other quilters. I have only been quilting for a little over a year so I have lots to learn.
Tomorrow is an all day class at the Buggy Barn that I have been wanting to do for about a year. I am so excited! Gotta go press my FQ's soon.

Took a couple classes taught by the headmistress of my son't school in Vanuatu about 18 years ago. Didn't touch it again until about 7 years ago-just re-taught my self from the masses of books and magazines I have collected and subscribed to since then. I would LOVE to take classes on bag making, foundation piecing, art quilts, and now Sashiko, but our LQS here hasn't had any of those since I moved back here this year. I'll keep looking! After seeing all those cute bags posted, I would LOVE to learn-just don't have the guts to try on my own!!

Little Blessings Quilt Shop in Crossville, TN. If you are anywhere in driving distance and want to take a class I HIGHLY recommend Julia at Little Blessings.

I teach quilting and sewing and I still take classes. I do samples for the store , so I have to learn new techniques. I'm taking Betty Cotton classes for the next two days. I've taken six classes fom her already, but I love that technique so everytime she comes to our LQS I take the classes. She always has something new to learn. I love hanging out, sewing and meeting new people and I'm going to be meeting Sunkistmi from this board in class tomorrow.

Never had a class - I am self taught - I prefer that I have learned alot here and the internet and I like that - its very rewarding to learn something new and make it work.

first 3 classes I took at the local quilt shop right around the corner from my mothers house in La Mesa CA. Loved the classes!! wish I was right in Paducah so I could take lots more classes, there is always some thing new to learn, and who knows might even be lucky enough to meet new best friend, and ya know right off you have some thing in common.
Have been teaching also and each time I give a class I learn some thing too. and quilt classes can be so much fun!!

I have taken several quilting classes at my LQS. I really enjoy them and socializing at the same time.
