More Online Classes - Craftsy
I'm also a big fan of websites that offer 24/7 online classes that never expire. I have been buying Craftsy's online classes when they go on sale for quite some time. They have so many wonderful classes to choose from.
However, I have a problem with them. My problem has always been lack of time and incentive. For Artful Gathering you are given a specific time period to take their class which, as a result, forces me to take them during that specific period of time. For Craftsy you can take them 24/7 without any expiration date. As a result I keep putting them off.
Despite this when I see a wonderful Craftsy class that I might be interested in that is on sale I tend to purchase it. Since I never do anything in moderation you know I've bought a lot of them. I'm hoping over the spring and summer I can start some of the classes I've purchased.
Here's what I chose:
Class Description - Work with fancy fabrics like velvet and silk and play with hand-embroidered seam treatments to create richly textured, sumptuous blocks.

Class Description - Don't lug your luggage; love your luggage! Make a beautiful travel bag with durable structure, designer touches and professional construction details.
I'm hoping that this week I can start watching the video's for some of these classes. The problem is which to pick first. I'll let you know what I think so stay tuned.
As a pattern designer I'm always on the look out for great websites to sell my e-patterns and have been a big fan of Craftsy since January 2012. In fact, I sell some of my e-patterns there. If you'd like to see my e-patterns shop at Craftsy please click here.
DST returns to C2E2; plans to celebrate two 15th anniversaries
Diamond Select Toys will once again be at C2E2 this year, but this year is a little more special than most since it marks the 15th anniversary for two of DST's biggest lines: the always-impressive Select figures and Minimates.
Feel free to join the historic celebration at Booth #817 during C2E2 (April 21-23) where you'll be able to meet members of the DST staff, check out upcoming items, and buy some collectibles you may have missed.
And, if you have the time, you may consider joining DST's Zach Oats for a panel (“Diamond Select Toys: 15 Years of Minimates and Select Figures”) on Friday evening, April 21, from 6:45 PM to 7:45 PM in Room S402.
Can't make it to Chicago? Then be sure to check out Zach's Twitch stream on Friday afternoon at 3:30.
Personally, I'd like to with the Select line a happy 15th birthday. Here's hoping to 15 more years!
