    I took a live class from Peggy Martin and signed up for her strip piecing class to have for referral. I believe she won "Teacher of the Year" in 2011 or 2012. I have purchased about 4 classes but have not taken them all yet. I think Craftsy is offering a good program for very little cost.

    I have signed up for several of their free classes, but I haven't paid for any yet. I do like the format though and I love that I get to watch and learn at my convenience. If a paid class comes along that I think I would like, I won't hesitate to purchase it, but for now, I'm happy with my freebies!

    I tried but could never get the video to work so I gave up after the free time. I would like it to work as the classes look nice and I can not get to any in person.

    I think if the class instructs how to do what the class is for then why would you want your money back? I could see if the class wasn't what the description said had wrong or bad information. But to expect a refund because I decided I didn't like learning it after all is not something I would do. The cost of the class is too inexpensive for that. I'm going to a workshop Saturday about an hour away and it's costing $65.

    I've taken several and I enjoyed all of them. I usually buy when they're on sale and think of it as costing no more than a quilting book. I get so much more out of seeing the steps performed and listening to the instructor discuss the hows and whys for the steps. I'm a beginner and have learned so much. And you can go back to these lessons for as long as you want to. You tube is good and I've learned a ton there from some of the same teachers who are at Craftsy. But we don't know how long they'll be on You tube and I like going to my lessons where I've taken notes and asked questions. I would highly recommend buying one or two on sale and see how you like it. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

    I have taken several of their classes and really enjoy going at your own speed. Learning so much as I was a newbie when I started

    This is good to know. I bought one but found out I have to move right after so I haven't looked at it yet. I like it isn't for a specific time period since who knows when I will be able to get to it. I am glad so many enjoy theirs
