Let’s Answer Those Lingering Questions

WHO IS THIS RETREAT FOR?

Whether you're a newbie or a seasoned quilter, this get-away retreat is for you! Everyone is welcome here. All the little details of the retreat will be taken care of for you... down to the detailed packing list that will be included in your retreat packet!

WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THE REGISTRATION?

Everything — You simply arrive via your own transportation, and we take care of the rest! Your room, food and drinks and all content, events and experiences... are included. Quite simply, the only thing not included is your airfare, transportation to/from our retreat location, materials for sewing/classes and if you’d like to plan for some additional shopping or sight seeing.

I’M BOOKING MY FLIGHT, WHEN SHOULD I ARRIVE/DEPART?

Our Retreat runs from checking in Thursday, April 10, 2025 after 4PM to Checkout on Sunday, April 13, 2024 at 11am. If you are flying in, you'll want to fly into Dallas. When making travel arrangements, it is best to plan to attend the full Retreat so you don't miss any of the special planned experiences.

HOW BIG IS THE GROUP?

Refresh Retreat allows a max of 24 women to allow for the perfect mix of skill levels, personalities and connections to be made. 🥳 This is so you can get 1:1 time with Christen and create close bonds with the other quilters. You will never feel lost or out of place like you would at a much larger event.

WHAT DO I NEED TO BRING OR WEAR?

There is no pressure to buy anything new for this in-person experience. You will need to bring the projects you want to work on and materials to work on the class project. Wear whatever feels comfortable to you!

WHAT ELSE SHOULD I BRING TO WORK ON?

You are welcome to bring any project you'd like to sew on! We encourage you to bring your unfinished projects from home, or drop in at the largest quilt store in Texas to purchase something new! The shared sewing/activity and kitchen areas are available for you to use 24 hrs. a day!

WHO WILL I ROOM WITH?

All bedrooms are shared rooms with 2 twin beds and 1 full bathroom each. Bring a friend and you can room together! Just be sure and include each other’s names on your registration and we’ll match you up. Coming alone? Don’t fret, about 95% of attendees who come, don’t know anyone either. This is an opportunity to come together with some of your soon to be best quilting friends! We’ll match roommates for you and let you know in advance so you can introduce yourselves.

CAN I CHECK IN EARLY?

This option will be discussed with the retreat facility and will be an option if schedules allow... however, at the moment, check-in begins at 4PM on April 10th.

WHAT SEWING SUPPLIES DO I NEED TO PACK?

You will receive a comprehensive retreat packet with EVERYTHING you need to know (including a detailed packing list) early March. StitchinHeaven will provide: Unlimited access to a spacious and well-lit sewing space, Tables for cutting, Ironing boards and irons, Sewing tables and electrical outlets, a full kitchen, drinks, super comfy & cozy bed, linens and towels. Sewing machines available to rent during retreat - Please make this request ahead of time so we know how many to rent.

DO PEOPLE REALLY TRAVEL WITH THEIR SEWING MACHINE?

Yes! They absolutely do! I have an article that will help you with the process of traveling with your favorite little machine. Click here to check it out & read the suggested tips! StitchinHeaven also has machines available to rent while on retreat. If you would like to borrow a machine, please let Christen know ASAP so we know how many machines to rent.

CAN I BRING MY SPOUSE, CHILDREN, OR FAMILY?

We believe that you are deserving of spending 4 days focused completely on you and your love of quilting! Because of this (and insurance policy reasons), only participating attendees are allowed on retreat property during our event.

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR, PACK, BRING?

You will receive a comprehensive retreat packet with EVERYTHING you need to know (including a detailed clothing packing list) in early March.

WHAT IF I HAVE PHYSICAL LIMITATIONS?

Our retreat facility has a few rooms that are ADA compliant with their own restrooms. We want you to feel at home and at ease throughout your stay. Rooms are first come, first served. Please contact Christen to make this reservation note asap.

WILL THERE BE OTHER SPECIAL GUESTS?

Yes! Lucky you! Christen will be bringing her most trusted and favorite wing woman! Attendees will have the pleasure of meeting Ms. Carol. She is Christen's #1 supporter, assistant and also... her momma 🤩 You will love her!

WILL WE GET TO KNOW THE OTHER ATTENDEES PRIOR TO THE EVENT?

Yes! There is an exclusive online community group where you can introduce yourself and make any shared travel arrangements prior to the retreat. It'll be a great way to share excitement and ideas as the retreat grows closer!

WHAT IF I WANT TO STAY IN MY OWN ROOM?

There are a few ways to accomplish this. Purchase 2 tickets for guaranteed solo occupancy, send a request to Christen and we will try to accommodate if possible. The last option is renting a small cottage during our retreat time for an added cost. Cottages are on property and adorable. They sleep 2-3 per room and have their own bathroom. Contact Christen for availability and pricing. There are a lot of fun activities that we have planned once the sun goes down in the evenings! You don't want to miss them! *There is a limited number available and are sold first come, first served.

WILL I GET TO SEW WITH CHRISTEN?

YES! There are so many quilting events out there promising expert guidance and input, but then the sheer number of attendees or limited class hours make you feel like you're kept at arm’s length without personal connections. That’s just not how Refresh Retreat works! This is one of the only places you can get 1:1 connections with Christen to answer questions and offer advice. PLUS - we will have many exclusive opportunities to bond and have girl chat time!

WHY IS IT JUST FOR WOMEN?

In short... the shared bedrooms of the retreat facility do not allow for men and women to co-share the space. If you are interested in coming to a retreat hosted by ISeeStarsQuilting, please email christen@iseestarsquilting and let her know! She is happy to accommodate and make plans for the next retreat facility to be all inclusive.

THIS IS A LARGE INVESTMENT FOR A TRIP FOR JUST ME...

If you're new to taking a quilt retreat weekend for yourself or traveling by yourself, this can feel like a big investment. We firmly believe the experience will more than meet—and will exceed—your Refresh Retreat investment. Past experience proves you can count on all your needs being taken care of, a warm welcoming hug and a well-managed and memorable experience for yourself as an attendee (and soon to be a new quilting best friend)!

ARE FABRIC & PROJECT MATERIALS INCLUDED IN MY TICKET?

No. Any fabric purchases or cost of materials for projects are not included. Each ticket holder will be provided with a detailed list of materials needed prior to the trip, but if you do need anything, Stitchin' Heaven... the largest quilt shop is right next door!

WHAT IS YOUR REFUND POLICY?

Due to the nature of this intimate event, details are planned and personalized far in advance for each of and every guest. All deposits and payments are 100% non-refundable.

I CAN'T GO! CAN I TRANSFER MY TICKET TO SOMEONE ELSE?

If your travel plans have changed and you have paid for a ticket but can no longer attend Refresh Retreat, you may transfer/sell your ticket to another person. Please contact Christen to arrange to be connected with someone on the waiting list. All sales outside of ISeeStarsQuilting are the responsibility of the ticket holder.
