Could have included more information for a beginner, however the information on stabilizers was very helpful, also the the needle instruction. A little more division of segments would have been helpful. Overall this was very informative and worth the purchase.

I've been embroidering, on and off, for a while now. I enjoyed hearing about the different stabilizers, threads and needles and I felt the instructor gave us a lot of information on each. For a new embroiderer, I believe this class should be used on a lesson by lesson basis, where the student watches a section and then practices the technique, if at all possible. There was a lot to digest and someone new to embroidery could easily get confused. Good job and a great reference.

This is a terrific class. I'm using the designs on clothing, toweling, gifts, etc. I have learned a lot about machine embroidery. Thank you!!

It needed more info and explanation on how to do the embroidery. Did not tell what type of stabilizer to use with the redwork. Did not give enough information for the mylar. This class is not for a beginner.
