Both she and I prefer to read instructions vs. watching a video. Having said that, we've never tried a Craftsy class. That might change our minds.Angelanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2132533809320962451.post-38105335942144000162012-12-29T13:48:36.728-05:002012-12-29T13:48:36.728-05:00My mom made me a crochet giraffe and I love it.

I love your giraffe bum, and if I could knit, I'd be making an entire herd of giraffes! And I love your elephants and hippos trampling. Yes! As for Craftsy, I love the Bombshell course. I learned a lot and put into practice more of what I've read about. It was well worth it. And I have signed up for the Couture Dress, but haven't done it yet because, well... do I really have to hand baste all those damn lines? UGH.

People who have taken them seem to be quite pleased, so it is definitely something I am willing to try.T.

I got myself the Couture Dress class, and I watch a lot of it at my mom's house (moved there to help out with step-dad and hospice for a while). I've found it is a great way to be engaging my sewing-brain when I can't be sewing. I don't have the patience for knitting, and in a way I'm glad- because there's a whole nother stash-problem I don't have to face. I spent part of the afternoon today in WEBS. (yarn.com) just fondling. but that was before I read about giraffe bum! I want to see a finished portrait of said giraffe cuteness.
