I feel this class was worth the price!
This class gives very specific instructions on how to cut, interface and assemble this bag!
I have read some reviews on the class before purchasing. Most of the reviews were 4+ stars so I thought I would give it a try, not sure what to expect, I went in with an open mind.
I was taught sewing when they still had home economics in schools which means I have been sewing for 40+ years. Times, interfacing, notions and fabric has changed over that time. In some places I thought the class did run a little slow but I think if I was a beginning sewer I would like and need these extra tips and instructions. With that said, I have not used hardware such as D wings and swivel hooks in my sewing before so the was very useful information to have.
You can always learn something if you keep an open mind, just because it is how you do it doesn't mean you can't try a new maybe improved way of doing things. Such as installing zippers - my instruction on zippered was baste seam closed lay down zipper and sew on each side to form a centered zipper or a lapped zipper. definitely old school.
I am wanting to get into more bag making projects so I will be watching for additional classes from Annie's.

I wasn't sure if I would get a lot of benefit from this video since I'm an experienced sewer but it's been very helpful. There are tips and things I never knew or learned. As an experienced sewer, I did find that some of the video was not needed so I would just move forward a bit. I've been buying pocketbook patterns and making them on my own but have gotten confused on steps here and there so having someone take you step by step on this beautiful crossbody bag, has been a blessing.
I would love to have more videos like this and perhaps some that show you how to sew different wallets.

Great pattern, boring instructor. If you're and an absolute beginner you will appreciate. However if you have any sewing experience this course is painfully sloooooow.

Nancy Green is an excellent instructor. Her directions are crystal clear, and I sincerely appreciate her perfectionist approach to every cut and stitch. She inspires me to keep striving for that high level of skill.

I just want to take this time to thank The Sewing Academy, no just kidding but I do want to say thank you for Nancy and to all those who were involved and putting this class together great job I bought this pattern at a quilt shop couldn't figure it out so I looked online found it thank you everybody I made the purse turned out perfect. This class was the best one ever took online. It is important to me that I can make this purse and I did . things are a little harder to me because I had MS. but the class was taught very well thank you again everyone great job.

This class really helped me to understand how to make the bag I got. It is the Barbados bag which is similar. What helped was the clear concise instruction and the tips were invaluable. I was stuck on the zipper part and couldn't visualize how to put them in or how to do the lining. I highly recommend this class.

Thank you so much Nancy! I have looked at many sewing classes and this one is definitely the best one I've seen. You are excellent when explaining everything we need to do. I can't wait to start making this bag!

Really nice course. Clearly explained step by step. I am planning to buy the second bag course. I would welcome other bag courses or course how to make a purse.

I enjoyed the class. I made the bag using a floral print for the center motif and it turned out well. Nancy is a great instructor and shows you how to do things each step of the way.
