I’m a little late posting this and it’s really because I’ve been taking advantage of Craftsy’s sales.  I remembered last week’s purchase but totally forgot about the three I bought earlier in the month. /sigh.  Well, I’ve got a total of 8 classes added for the month.  This will have to stop!  Here are the classes I’ve added:

• Sew Sturdy Travel Organizers with Annie Unrein
• Machine-Finished Hand Applique with Beth Ferrier
• Designing Elegant Edible Gardens with Ellen Ogden
• Sew Better Bags: The Weekend Duffel with Betz White
• Finishing School: Edges & Bindings with Mimi Dietrich
• Machine Quilting with Templates: Creating Design Perfection with Kimmy Brunner
• Vegetable Gardening: Smart Techniques for Plentiful Results
• Vegetable Gardening: Innovative Small-Space Solutions

I finished watching Free Motion Fillers Volume 1 with Leah Day.  This is one of those classes that are great to take while I’m quilting or knitting and can just watch or listen as I craft.  Leah is a wealth of information and ideas.  I’m not sure I’m at the point to actually learn how to do any of the designs she shared.  But I may be one day.  I bought this class originally so I can FMQ on my little Bernina but I make big quilts and I hate quilting them on her.  So now that I’ve got my Bailey I like the class for the information and maybe one day I’ll want to do some of these designs.  If that day comes, I’ll have this Craftsy class to refer to.  I mentioned in a previous post her interesting basting method.  It’s the last lesson of the class and was apparently taken out of her Free Motion Quilting a Sampler class.
