When I took a beginners class, we were given a list at the time we signed up, of materials we needed to bring to class. This included all the different tools you would need (plus some I have still never used!) and all of your material. I made it thru the first four classes, and then signed up for the next four (both classes were quilts), but by the time I was finished w/the second series, I had had enough.

The main instructor was the owners daughter in law and she and her helper spent a lot of time joking around amongst themselves and sometimes you would have to wait several minutes to get a question answered or some help. By then, I was involved in the BOM and another club, so I quit signing up for the beginner classes.

This weekend, as my family enjoys a long weekend at the lake while I'm working, I'm finally going to quilt the top from the first class and get it done for my husband for his birthday next week. Hopefully Matilda will play nice.
