I found this very good. I do have one thing to add. In the Trace image and iron section. When you are ironing on the tracing paper, you may want to tell people to use a dry iron. When I first starting using iron on transfers, I used steam, not thinking that the water from the iron would mess up the paper and the transfer. But other than that, it was a very good video. Thank you.

This was a great class. Rebecca is very clear and easy to follow along with. I have done a lot of preprinted embroidery, but have never used Solvy. It was great to see that in action.
