My Favorite Pixie Faire course is difficult to say because I have yet to take them all. I am registered for a few right now and can’t wait to start the Pattern Academy. I will probably continue to buy patterns but I thought it would be fun to put a few together for the designs that I can’t find. ~(:-)
