Today, I am so excited to share with you lovely readers about the new Craftsy Block of the Month, taught by the very delightful, Amy Gibson.
Have you heard of Craftsy? Craftsy is a new site online with courses in all kinds of craftsy fun – sewing, knitting, quilting, even making hand dipped chocolates! The classes are taught in video courses that you can access at your own pace and schedule. Other benefits include being able to ask your instructor questions and get personalized responses and bookmark your favorite moments in the video. You can even take notes right under the video to refer back to. You can sign up for a free account at Craftsy.com and poke around the site for any classes you might be interested in. Most of the classes have a class fee.
For all you visual learners, this is the place for you.
Today I’d like to share a little bit about the FREE Block of the Month video courses taught by Amy. (I met Amy at the Sewing Summit and she was absolutely lovely. I can think of few people I’d enjoy watching more than Amy.)
Each month Amy will teach how to make two different blocks in a 30 minute video. Each block teaches a very different quilting technique to add to your repertoire. Towards the end of the year she will teach techniques like adding borders, quilting and binding. Did I mention it’s all free? There are already over 53,000 people signed up from all over the world for this course. wow.
You can watch a preview video here, but you need to click Sign-Up to see the full video tutorials, access the message boards, etc. I think that this is such a brilliant idea. All of us learn techniques differently and for many a video tutorial is the most effective way to learn. I love that this option is now available and put together so well.
In honor of the Craftsy Block of the Month Blog Tour, The Fat Quarter Shop is giving away a $25 gift certificate to one of you readers. Oh the possibilities. Maybe some of that Flea Market Fancy that just came out?? To enter, leave a comment on this post.
And there are other opportunities to enter for additional gift certificates. Visit any of the stops on this Blog Tour (that are still open) and you can enter to win again!

March 12, 2012 at 12:53 pmThanks for the chance to win. I'm eagerly looking at a few fabric lines right now, so it would come in handy!
foodmathquilts
March 12, 2012 at 12:55 pmI've watched the first couple of videos, but haven't made any blocks yet. I love the efficiency of chain piecing and cutting strips, so sampler style doesn't appeal to me most of the time. However, I may eat my words and join in at some point anyway!
Susan
March 12, 2012 at 12:56 pmI'm going to have to check out that free BOM class! I didn't even know Craftsy existed. What rock have I been hiding under?! LOL Thanks for the info and for the giveaway!
Kim's Crafty Apple
March 12, 2012 at 12:58 pmYEAH! I'm super excited about this giveaway! I'm about to go down and work on my March blocks right now. I have so much from the FQS that I want that a GC would be super helpful!

March 12, 2012 at 1:02 pmI'd love to have some spending money at the Fat Quarter Shop. Thanks for participating in the tour.

Susan
March 12, 2012 at 1:29 pmI need to get going on my Craftsy BOM quilt now that I have scrounged up all the fabric I want to use (Central Park by Kate Spain). I am so behind!

LilyKGonzales
March 12, 2012 at 1:41 pmGood to know about craftsy! I'm doing a block swap with my local guild right now and learning a ton!
Aligoggle
March 12, 2012 at 1:42 pmI'm still pacing myself. I've done the first BOM for March, and I'll do the second one in the next few days. I decided not to rush and do them both on the 1st, since March is a long month! Lol.
Lisa Cox
March 12, 2012 at 1:48 pmOh, I could find so many things at FQS to spend a gift certificate on!<br />I am enrolled in this class, but haven't made any of the blocks yet. Life keeps getting in the way (migraines, storms, cleaning, etc.)

March 12, 2012 at 1:50 pmI was floored to see the number of people signed up for the video course. I love the thought that people all over, in different countries, and on different continents are participating.

Kim
March 12, 2012 at 2:21 pmI signed up for this course! Of course, I am behind—-I am new to finding all of the QALs and such–and as a result, have joined too many! LOL<br /><br />I was hoping to get some of that Flea Market Fancy, but my favorite prints are gone already! Not to worry, my wishlist is still very long!

J-Nessa
March 12, 2012 at 3:10 pmI am curious what these blocks would look like in a full quilt. I'm having a hard time liking the zig-zag one, but am with-holding final opinion till I try it. I am interested to see how these all look in different fabric choices and layouts. I hope craftsy has a plan for a "show and tell" area (:

March 14, 2012 at 7:16 amThanks for the chance to win a little spending money! I need more fabric like I need a hole in the head but oh well! We quilters can never truly have enough fabric now can we? I have been dying to get my fingers on some Flea Market Fancy fabric! I just love her fabrics.<br /><br />The craftsy site sounds like a great idea. I'll have to check it out, being a visual learner myself.

March 14, 2012 at 10:32 pmI just have to say, Amy, that you are great. I love your pins (on pinterest) 🙂 You probably don't remember but I "met" you a way back….I am Sarah Jane's cousin (I love all the work you've done for her) and you gave me some advice about fabric a while back! I still want to make it to your quilt shop. And now I love that you know this Amy bcse we went to high school

March 16, 2012 at 5:11 amI signed up for the Craftsy BOM, and I've been following along, watching the vids, etc. Although I love the concept and plan to do the quilt, I can't get into it without seeing what the final quilt is supposed to look like. How can you plan a quilt color scheme without having the final picture in mind so you can coordinate your colors appropriately for the blocks?
