Reviews pending for Craftsy

I love to learn.

The Internet is just so fantastic as there is so many free things out there. There are moments when I go and purchase things for convince.

This is why I have Craftsy. 

I know there are other sites out there but I'm all about this one.

It's a one-stop shop for me.

I've {cough} purchased a few of these classes and was going to take advantage of the super sale going on now.  This usually happens this time of year. :)

I've purchased a few so-so classes so I'm a little gun shy even with a super sale going on.  Money is money people. :)

Being on the awesome Internet I started searching for reviews and was in awe!

I've super appreciated the candor of people and thought I would start reviewing some classes myself that may help some others along the way. 

I've started a new page of all the classes I own {hanging head in shame}!

But it's a reference when I complete reviews.  You can find my Craftsy Class Reviews here

I've noted the Shanna's must haves already.

*Yes these are affiliate links, but all opinions and recommendations are my own*

I hope to populate all of these by the end of 2014.  Whoop!

November: A Lovely Year of Finishes ~ Mid-month link-up

Being gone for a week has taken a lot out of me.  

I loved my trip.

I ate.
I learned about a whole new area.
I went to Sew Expo.
I visited and talked for 2 days straight with a high school girlfriend I haven't seen in 19 years.

I'm starting to catch up.

November: Lovely Year of Finishes ~ Goal Setting Party

How are we already in November?

Well 2 months in a row I've not met my goal.

I'm not giving up.  I've actually accomplished a lot - just not what I've set out to do.

Because I'm gone traveling for the first whole week, my goal will be small.

I want to finish up my Noodlehead Super Tote.

It's made from the home decor material 

I seriously love this bag already!
