Guess what I'm working on?

I *loved* your responses to my Online Sewing Class Confessional.  I want to respond to your comments individually this week.

But I wanted to show you what I am currently working on.
What is that?
Perhaps it's the most unwieldy thing I've ever sewn.
Looks like a toaster cover, ha ha.


Unwieldy, I tell you.

Any guesses???

Be well!

Online Sewing Class Confessional

Gratuitous cranberry sauce picture--it is fun to watch the berries pop open

With so many online classes on sale today/this weekend for Black Friday, now is a great time to write this post that has been brewing in my head for a while.

The Online Class Confessional Booth Is Now Open.

You have a fabric stash, a notions stash, a button stash....now it's time to talk about that other stash in your lives, one that isn't taking space on your shelves or in your house: online sewing classes.

How many online sewing classes have you purchased in your lifetime?

Um...

• 16 Craftsy 
• 12 Pattern Review  
• 1 BurdaStyle

And how many of those classes did you actually do the featured project, practiced the technique and/or did the homework?

• 1 Craftsy  (altering RTW)
• 5 Pattern Review (jeans, serger, knits, more knits, altering pants)
• 0 BurdaStyle

Well, if you didn't do the project/technique/homework, did you actually watch the full class, possibly maybe even taking extensive notes?

• 4 Craftsy
• 0 Pattern Review
• 1 Burda Style

How about partially watched the class?

• 3 Craftsy
• 1 Pattern Review
• 0 Burda Style

Oh no, so that means you haven't started watching how many classes?

• 8 Craftsy
• 6 Pattern Review
• 0 Burda Style

And armed with that information, how many on-sale classes are you tempted to buy today/this weekend?

• 5 Craftsy
• 2 Pattern Review
• 0 Burda Style
• Interested in the CreativeBug subscription....

And how many will you actually buy?

• That remains to be seen.

Fess up--how many online classes have you purchased and never watched???  No judgments here!

p.s. Thanks for your comments on my Thanksgiving food post.  I wound up going to the gym and then the grocery store (tip: there is hardly anyone at the supermarket at 9:45am on TG morning).  I then made the soup again with less onions and remade the yams again too just in case it was a butter issue.  The soup was really good but it still gave me some indigestion;  Dad said it was fine for him.   I did not eat the cranberry sauce at lunch so it's not the cranberries, I didn't put butter in the yams the second time so it's not the yams; I had asparagus too but I doubt it's that; I think it's the onion in the soup.  Next time I'll make it without onions and see what happens!

Be well!
