Good work
Thank you so much for putting this on. So many videos have been really helpful. Quilting is not so big in the UK so there no real community here. That’s why things like this are great. Thanks. Svetlana
You’re very welcome, Svetlana! We’re thrilled to hear that you’ve found the videos helpful and that they’ve provided you with a sense of community, especially since quilting isn’t as prominent in the UK. Your appreciation means a lot to us, and we’re here to support your quilting journey every step of the way. If you ever have more questions, feel free to reach out. Happy quilting!
i was wondering where the video’s of teachers that are available without the gold package. it looks like most all the classes i am interested in such as spinning worsted to woolen with Jacy Boggs?
Hello Fawn!
I am not seeing a paid membership under the email of fromfawn@gmail.com. Is it possible your account is under a different email address.
The paid Premium membership gives our members access to more than 2,000 classes at no additional cost. It’s just a matter of logging in and pressing ‘Play’ on the videos you wish to watch.
If you do not have a paid membership, you can find all of our FREE classes here: https://www.craftsy.com/free/freeclasses/ and FREE LIVE events here: https://www.craftsy.com/live/tutorials/.
Thanks!
Is there a reason why you don’t add brown to the legs on the gusset?
Hi Caroline,
It all depends on what color fabric you use, but you could use any color on the gusset to make your horse something special! Hope this helps!
I’ve popped in and out for the crochet classes during all three days. I enjoyed the whole festival- which is not a surprise as I’ve been a member of Craftsy since way back.
Hi Teresa,
It’s fantastic to hear that you’ve enjoyed the Makers Palooza Virtual Conference! Thank you for being a Craftsy member. Keep up the great work, and here’s to many more crafting adventures ahead!
What is the name of the brother machine they are using?
Hello! Colleen is using an older model Brother sewing machine in this session. It’s called the Brother Innovis QC 1000.
How do I get the cookie dough recipe
Hi Karen,
Maddie Gartmann sells a downloadable version of her sugar cookie recipe on her website (https://www.gartygoodies.com/shop/sugar-cookie-crash-course). You can also replay the video from this conference and watch again for the recipe. We hope this helps!
Hi Karen,
Thank you for your question.
The recipe is outlined in the video at the timestamp of -3:10:03.
For further information or assistance, please chat, email, or call Customer Service.
Sincerely,
Sarah
Craftsy
Are these recorded so I can rewatch them later
Hi Diane,
Yes – once the LIVE stream is complete today, all 3 days of the entire conference will be available to watch on demand.
I just learned that if I want to make something I just make it happen and try things, watch videos & ask friends until I get the hang of it.
Hi April,
That’s an excellent attitude to have! The willingness to dive in, experiment, and learn is a fantastic approach to acquiring new skills and achieving your creative goals. Remember that making mistakes along the way is all part of the learning process, and each one brings you closer to mastering your craft. Keep that enthusiasm alive, and you’ll continue to improve and create wonderful things. Happy crafting!
