As the list is so quiet.  We have had discussions on cost and time against the content 
offered, that is not what I would like to raise here.. 

Taking a workshop class or course we expect to learn, but what does the different 
names suggest .  Does it influence your choice?  Should the name reflect the content?

Tamara's mention of finishing her first piece of wire lace in Lenka's  workshop got me 
thinking on this.  I were privileged to attend her wire workshop in Spain and we also 
finished our Spanish flowers in class.  What a tremendous feeling of achievement that 
you can show what you have learned.

So should one expect to finish a project in a workshop?

If you take a course should you expect some preparation and homework  to achieve the 
goals of the course?  How up-front should the students and teachers expectation be?

That leaves the classes.  I often think a class is there to frustrate the teacher. You 
come unprepared, do no homework before the next class and expect the teacher to work 
miracles towards your finished project.  I am a bit surprised that I have not been 
kicked out of my once a month Saturday classes as added to the above I often keep the 
other students from their work.  This is do whatever you want lace classes, where the 
teacher must really be on her toes to cover all the different levels and techniques.  
Why do I go?  To get inspiration from some fellow lacemakers and dream about what I 
will be able to do one day.
