I have almost all their quilting classes. I purchased one I was not happy with. I posted a review not knowing you could get a refund. They sent me an email and gave me a refund right away. Leah Day is going to have 2 new classes this spring. Can't wait.

You might try watching again. I was having trouble and contacted them. I have noticed the last couple of weeks I don't have any trouble with the video working. I think they fixed something on their end.

I have taken several of their quilting classes. I love them all! I buy when they go on sale. I bought two today because they were on sale. I agree that it is like buying a quilt book. There are usually several patterns in one class. It is better than going to a class in person because you can watch it over and over when you need it. I work better when I am in the quiet of my own studio with no distractions. The added bonus is that you don't have to pack up all your "stuff" and take it to the quilt shop. I have learned a lot from the classes.

I know they have targeted advertising since I have taken their classes, but this is ridiculous. I will NEVER take another class or buy any fabric from them because their advertising is so intrusive.

Last year I did the free Craftsy.com BOM. The teacher, Amy, is so good that I bought her Sugar Block series. I m making blocks I would not have attempted. I am a very opinionated retired art teacher. Believe me, Amy is good!

Any recommendations?

You can go back to the classes anytime for review if you want to.
