I signed up for a class at QuiltUniversity.com, which hosts online quilting classes. There is no face-to-face instruction or video; it's all written. (I do well with written instructions.) Although there is no live contact, you can post questions at the class Discussion site. The instructor answers questions within a day. The lessons are viewable 24/7, so you can work when it's convenient for you. The format allows quilters in any time zone to participate, and it's normal to see students from around the globe in a class.
I've taken several classes at QuiltU, mainly about design, and I've enjoyed them. Right now I'm taking Multiple Magic, yet another design class. From the description, you choose blocks that work together well with each other, and use different sizes to create an interesting pattern. I love to design my own quilts, and I'm hoping to pick up some new ideas.
Here's a link to QuiltU, where you can check out the many classes available:

Thanks for visiting my blog. I hope you'll enjoy reading about my quilts and travels. I make lots of quilts, many as gifts, some for charity, and a few on commission. I love to travel and I own a car, but I am afraid to drive in heavy traffic. So I often use public transportation to visit big cities. I don't just go on trips--I have adventures!
