I did not use a stabilizer, nor a hoop. Just be cognizant of the tension of your stitches.

Thank you Dena, I will check out your blog. I also prefer to watch videos that have been professionally done, as opposed to someone using a cheap webcam etc. Although if it is just a quick tip about something, those can be helpful also.
I have enrolled in a number of Craftsy classes, and I do enjoy those, as I can always go back and watch it again, if I need a refresher, which you can't do with a workshop. So yes, there are good things about both watching videos and attending workshops.
I haven't been able to attend many workshops in the past, because of my work schedule, by the time I heard about a workshop, it was too late for me to try and schedule time off from work to attend. But I recently retired, so my schedule is more open now, so I am considering finding some workshops or even retreats to attend. I just need to decide what types of workshops I'm interested in, and how far I'm willing to travel for one.

Kathy, your quilting sounds like great fun! I love it when I see people step out and away from what is familiar and customary, stretching themselves as the opportunities to do so arise.
Good luck with this current project. Will you come back here to tell us when you post the photo?
Thanks, and hope you had a good night's rest. For me, it's been a long day, and I'm ready to put my feet up and enjoy a nice dinner!
Cheers!
Dena

You're welcome, and thanks!
This feedback is all very interesting. It seems we all go to classes to learn something new, not merely for the social side of quilting. If we want to pick up a technique, we'll try online videos first, disliking the non-professional ones that waste everyone's time, yes?
Live classes give the advantage of direct and immediate response from a teacher. Even with hand-outs, though, it's hard to go back and "do it again."
Online classes reach those for whom travel is difficult or even impossible. There is teacher feedback but with a delay, and it's not the same as being in the same room with the teacher. With continuous enrollment, you can go back repeatedly. With video or text lessons, you may be able to download and even print out the materials.
Seems to me there's a market for all of these learning methods. Thanks to everyone for sharing thoughts and experiences that help inform me in what I'm trying to do with QuiltEd Online. I think I'm on the right track . . .
;-)
