How to Get the Most Out of a Virtual Quilting Summit?
You have a busy schedule.
But you’ve also already signed up for Quilted! The Virtual Summit, and you want to make the most bang for your buck… or in this case, the most bang for your free ticket.
And we got you covered!
It’s not easy to get ready ahead of schedule, and we completely understand how frustrating it is to be lost, and maybe even a little anxious about what to do at the summit. And as promised, this time around, we’re focusing on zero spending and using ALL of the resources you already have at your disposal.
If you’re looking at your quilting room right now, scanning your eyes over the pile of fabrics left to collect dust somewhere in the corner, and you’re… absolutely overwhelmed on what to do and where to start, then… really, there’s nothing to worry about.
Because for one, your scraps are already there.
And two, we’ve got some tips that you can easily follow to make attending Quilted! feel like a breeze. Read this if this is your first time attending our summit, or any online quilting events!
Preparation Tips for Quilted! The Virtual Summit:
Setting aside time
Let’s be real. Life gets in the way at the most inconvenient times that it sometimes feels like the universe is doing it on purpose. If you want to soak in the full Quilted! experience, block off your calendar like it’s a doctor’s appointment you actually want to keep. Treat is a sacred “me time” so that there are no interruptions when you finally put your pen down to work.
You have to intentionally put in the effort to make room for it in your schedule! Otherwise, you can’t proceed to the next step and you’ll stay stuck where you are.
2. Prepping scraps/fabric
This is your chance to finally do something with those baskets, bins, and bags of scraps that you swore you’d “use one day.” (Yes, I see you.) Go through your stash and pull out all the fabrics you’ve completely forgotten to use after buying them impulsively. Trust me, it’s always a fun surprise to check how many resources you actually have in your quilting room.
Quilted! The Virtual Summit is all about inspiration and experimentation, so having your materials ready means you can jump right in without the dreaded “where did I put that fabric?” hunt. ALSO, major bonus: tidying your scraps pile totally counts as “organization” for the week.
3. Joining live
This might actually be the most fun part. There’s something exciting about being there in real-time… the energy, the chat buzzing with fellow quilters, the inside jokes that happen in the moment. If you can, show up live and let yourself be part of it.
Don’t worry about showing up perfectly! You can literally just sit in your PJs, sip your cup of tea/coffee, and immerse yourself in the joy of being part of something meaningful.
4. Catching replays
Of course, circumstances may happen and we can’t control what comes next. If you eventually find yourself unable to attend the live virtual quilting event, there’s really no need to panic. The great thing about Quilted! is that you can rewatch sessions at your own pace, pause when you need to try something, or rewind when you’re thinking, “wait, what did she just do with that block?!”
Replays mean you don’t miss out! There’s absolutely no need to frantically pace around your room and think about how you just wasted your free ticket away. We’ve thought about that possibility way ahead, quilter!
Speaking of, we’ve also come up with the All Access Pass if such instances happen!
Let’s say you weren’t able to attend the quilting event and you feel as if you’ve missed out on so many opportunities to connect with all these amazing quilters. Not to worry, the All Access Pass grants you:
Lifetime access to every workshop & presentation from Quilted! The Virtual Summit!
Re-watch every video from the summit as many times as you want!
Access to a VIP goodie bag with $1,200 worth of exclusive bonuses (all provided by the speakers themselves!)
You could say we’re too… prepared, right?
5. Connecting with other attendees
One of the best parts of a quilting summit? Realizing you’re not the only one obsessed with fabric scraps and sewing memes. Quilting can feel like a solo sport sometimes, but connecting with others turns it into a team event. It’s actually a community of quilters from all walks of life, from different backgrounds and a unified love for the art of quilting.
It’s the one experience you’ll take with you for the rest of your life. And it’s completely FREE!
