Nuts & Bolts
Here’s how this online class works:
- As a self-study class, so you have access to all of the lessons right now and can work the lessons on your own timetable.
- You have indefinite access to this class.
- You can (optionally) share your work with Tracie via email or via the class Facebook page. Since this is now a self-study class, you will need to let Tracie know if you upload work, as she doesn’t check the Facebook page as regularly. Click this link and ask to join the group!
- Class fee is good for participants living in a single household.
