Hello all,
I am so :x . Signed up for a 2-day BEGINNING basket making class (75.00/day). Instructor displayed many beautiful baskets she claimed to have made, said she had been a basket maker for 30 years. The project was a large egg basket (I've since learned this is not a beginner project). Nothing prepared for students, we were told to gather our own materials from a big table. Instruction consisted of the teacher referring to 3 books and reading the directions to the students. She was unable to help anyone do anything. First day was a disaster, down hill from there. Needless to say none of us finished the basket as we were supposed to. Several asked for a refund, instructor refused instead telling us to just take home whatever we needed to finish.
Am I wrong in thinking this was a rip off? I may never take another class again. Really upset about the $, could have ordered soap supplies with that!
