she was very clear with instructions but her crochet needle view could be less fast.

This is such a beautiful purse, I just had to try making it. I'm so glad the video was available as a guide because I stumbled several times trying to understand certain steps and concepts. Edie is a wonderful instructor and amazingly I was able to complete this project. I want to start making another one because I have a better understanding of how to connect the dots... so to speak.

I really enjoyed this class. Ms. Eckman is a great instructor. I had trouble with the ripple stitch section but I stuck with the pattern and am happy with the outcome.
