When will the retreat package arrive?
Packages will arrive at your home at least 1 week before the retreat starts.
How is a retreat different from a class?
A retreat is more informal than a class. Even though the retreat has a theme and instructional videos, attendees will choose their own project and stitch at their own pace. Everyone chats while stitching, and those who want to collaborate or help each other can do so.
Do I need to do any prep work before the retreat begins?
We recommend scanning through the book before the weekend starts, so you can think through what you might like to work on. If you want to do even more prework, you can watch the demo videos as soon as you get the retreat link (but this is not required!)
I already own the book, can I still sign up?
Yes! Please choose the "Mystery Bundle" option instead of the "book" option
I don't have the book, but I want the mystery bundle too. Can I get both?
Yes! Choose the "Book & Mystery Bundle" option.
