But for simple design that does not involve expensive materials or labour hour, I will then post it for free.

I would pay for some tuts, however, but it would have to be pretty advanced!

I try to find free ones and I happen to be pretty good at figuring out how something was made by studying it. So, the tutorials I bought were for things I couldn't quite figure out on my own.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05033554741565921836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8949258232093294455.post-72016970954080790612010-03-08T12:23:38.649-08:002010-03-08T12:23:38.649-08:00I have enjoyed GlitterGlow's extensive resourc...I have enjoyed GlitterGlow's extensive resources myself. I have learned a lot from many of the free tutorials to be found on the internet. However, I did decide to invest in a couple of beading books that had more extensive information on stitch variations that I wanted to learn. I have never actually bought a tutorial online, but I can't say that I'm against it - I just have found so much free information that it hasn't seemed necessary at this point. I must admit that I am amazed at the fact that so many people do post free tutorials online and don't charge for all that hard work. I wrote one simple tutorial for my own blog and it took forever - so I can really understand why someone would want to charge a small fee for all their hard work.WindyRiverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01828847575785385224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8949258232093294455.post-33989277123352918562010-03-07T20:14:51.323-08:002010-03-07T20:14:51.323-08:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8949258232093294455.post-18771269681890688642010-03-07T10:15:14.488-08:002010-03-07T10:15:14.488-08:00Not usually, because for every tutorial you will f...Not usually, because for every tutorial you will find for sale, a careful search on google will give you the same type of tutorial for free:)<br />111Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8949258232093294455.post-37562809548689225222010-03-07T04:44:18.297-08:002010-03-07T04:44:18.297-08:00I think it is worth paying for a unique tutorial, ...I think it is worth paying for a unique tutorial, one that is hard to do on your own.
