What Have Previous Students Had to Say?

Maria Frazier-Stern....“I am so grateful for the opportunity to take the online course by Bethanne Nemesh, Feather Fiesta. I am a person with disabilities and require the assistance of my medical service dog, Maverick. Traveling and attending quilt shows can be challenging for many reasons. Being able to learn quilting techniques remotely has become my means of strength if my skills. The online format used through Teachables and the private Facebook group really worked! Bethanne provides very clear instructions with amazing examples while using digital drawing methods and demonstrations on the longarm and sit-down stationary machines. She made the learning fun and memorable while also challenging students to find their own style. I love that the class is mine and I can go back and review a section whenever I wish. All class Q & A’s on Facebook are saved as well. So there is never a moment I can’t go back for a refresher. This course was the best investment I have ever made. The first two sections alone took my skills to a new level. The most important component of this course was the ability to communicate with Bethanne and receive valuable feedback and encouragement. I would highly recommend this course and would be happy to speak to anyone who might have questions. I’m so happy with how much I have learned that I have already signed up for Bethanne’s next course!

Kathy Witdouck..."Freehand Feather Fiesta is a wonderful class with an incredibly talented teacher, Bethanne Nemesh. The silver lining of Covid is being able to take a class of this caliber from the comfort of my own home with the time to practice between each lesson and get one-to-one feedback from Bethanne. Bethanne is a world renowned quilter and she has honed her craft to be award winning. Most times people with this skill level have trouble translating their art for others to learn from. But that is not the case for Bethanne. She has clear instructions, incredible technology to broadcast her classes and an integrity to ensure we as students have the best experience possible.
