I'm so excited. As an extreme introvert I love that this is virtual. This will be my first stitching "convention" ever. I'm really excited about the classes. Thank you for doing this.
I attended the Jingle Ball last year for the first time. It was by far the best virtual event that I attended all year. And $10??? That is just crazy! I have a goal of finishing 2 of the projects from last year before this year’s ball. I love them all. 😻😻😻
You are the bomb. If I’m feeling down, I just watch/rewatch your videos LOL. My 2nd Jingle Ball and actually taking a class and speed dating. Totally out of my introverted comfort zone. 🤯
@@susanmccoy1992believe me I’ve attended the last two balls and it is so fun meeting with people who are just stitching. It’s great to see what others are stitching. Camera off or on its all up to you. I hope you try it.
Thank you so much for all the clarifications!! For myself last year, I didn’t realize one has to enter the mailing address information for buying a kit for EACH different designer. And now this year, also, knowing that you will add “sold out” to the particular title of a class is good to know as well. I too hope to have more time this year to check out the other things like time with the designer and the stitching tables, etc. ❤
This was so helpful Steph. Now I understand what happened to me last year. I was trying to get into the HOD's class for a kit and couldn't so at 15 minutes past the hour, I gave us as I thought it was sold out. Great tips, good information. 🥰
Very helpful! Last year was my first jingle Ball and I enjoyed it. Trying to work up the courage for more interaction like speed dating. 😀 I ordered my mug and T-shirt yesterday!! Yay!❤🪿
I'm excited for my first Ball. I like one of the classes, but I also want to buy some exclusive designs. Right now, I'm not sure where to put my money. And then there's merch!
Thank you for this. I remember things seemed sold out last year and then they would become available later. It did get confusing. 😂 Also thanks for doing the live feed during the Friday night ticket buying frenzy!
Last year I was a bit confused about the order in which classes were listed for purchase. Will it be in alphabetical order or chronological order? Either would be fine, but it would be helpful to know now, so it’s less confusing on Friday night. Thanks SO much and I can hardly wait for all the fun to come 🥰
Thank you! First time jingle baller. Now i just have to figure out if my 5 year old laptop can work wirh the platform. I think it's windows 10. No apple tech here. I saw on your website tech page. so ill see if i can figure that out 😮
Hello😊 I am going to test that out. I've never used it for zoom type conversing. I've used my phone for zoom. I have an android Samsung 10 phone. If laptop doesn't work well, only other device is my phone.
@@BellaSparkles1I used my android last year at the Ball and everything was fine. However, I did not speed date so I couldn't tell you how my phone did. It's a blast though and it'll be a good time!
I just purchased my general admission tix. I received your email. So to join the event on Dec 6th, I join the event on the email I received.? I hope that’s not a stupid question. First timer here. 😂
I am a rookie Jingle Baller! If I purchase JB GA Ticket on Friday can I come back at a later time and purchase a class, if I so wish? So excited to attend!
Joining for the first time this year. Just trying to do the time conversion. Question, if i sign up to the newsletter , should i have had an email by now or are those still to come out ?
So, is this correct... Does the kitted choice include both the class cost and the kit? So I don't pay for the PDF class and then pay for the kit... Is that correct? Just one cost?
Hi this will be my first. I am international and so excited. Do I need to buy the general ticket plus the classes or if I buy the classes, I will.automatically have access to the general?
This was very helpful Steph! Thanks for doing it!. One of my friends has poor internet connection so I will be buying her tickets & kits as well as a friend in CA. How should I proceed? I don't mind having all kits sent to me and then I can forward to each of them. Would it be possible to buy 3 class tickets and 3 kits at the same time, or do I have to make 3 separate purchases? I hope this makes sense. Thanks again! I'm really looking forward the Jingle Ball again this year as I will be recovering from 2 back surgeries and I feel this will help me heal.
So, if I'm understanding this correctly, if i want a kit, i should check out with the $10 ticket and the most wanted class kit and then i can go back in and check out say with merch at a later time?
In order to participate this year I have to make a whole other email because my email address of 15 or more years has been hotmail and I can’t use that!? At 67 yrs old I may end up missing this year sadly because I’m not good at finding and setting up a different email platform ☹
Creating a gmail address is very user friendly and I think you would find it pretty easy. If we allowed hotmail, you would most likely have problems so we are trying to help people have a seamless experience.
Last year I was trying to get into a stitching table but it was full. I had the option to “kick someone out “ not sure about the wording but it was something along those lines. I didn’t want to be rude so I didn’t get into any of the things. Can you explain please?
That won't happen this year. We changed the format of the tables. The only "issue" might be that they could get too full and noisy. If that happens, just move to another table. :)
Question: Do you need to check out with the $10 ticket before you can add classes? Last year I tried checking out with the $10 ticket and 3 classes, but it wouldn’t let me until i first paid the $10.
You didn't mention, OR I missed it even though I watched this video 3X, you can only use "1" device per ticket. For example, I have a computer without a camera, the only camera I have is on my phone. I do not own a tablet to be able to do everything from it. I need and want 2 devices, so I'd need to buy 2 tickets IF that's possible - maybe one ticket from the computer and one ticket from my phone? Does the one email address screw that up? I was upset because I was not able to participate in the Midsummer's event except on my teeny tiny little phone. I found out too late I needed 2 tickets because itt's only 1 ticket per device. I was told you didn't want us to share our ticket with others which is why you limit one ticket to one device. There are some things I'd rather use the large screen computer for and other things I'd need to use the phone for for the camera since my computer has no camera. Is this still the same?
Your email can be logged in on one device at a time. You can switch back and forth from device to device (like phone to computer or back and forth), but the new device will log the other one off. If you want two devices to be logged in at the same time, you would need two tickets assigned to two different email addresses.
Will there be a way to pay for classes and items in the designer's booths, other than Paypal? My Paypal is linked to a Hotmail email address, of course! lol
So if you don’t want a kit, just the PDF, it will not ever be sold out? Is that what I am understanding. Only if you want a kit, will it show sold out? Thanks Chris
I'm so excited. As an extreme introvert I love that this is virtual. This will be my first stitching "convention" ever. I'm really excited about the classes. Thank you for doing this.
My husband bought me jingle ball tix and a class for my birthday!! I’m so excited! And those PJ pants are really tempting me to be bought!!!

Strategy! This is my third Jingle Ball 🎉 🎉🎉
Thank you for the information. I am thinking about going for the first time and I was feeling scared about what to do.
Don’t be scared! It’s a blast! You can participate as little or as much as you want ❤
I am going for the first time too sugarplum
I’m thinking about it too…but still scared😣

Thanks so much Steph. Looking forward to the Ball.....yippee!!
So excited for The Jingle Ball! This video was so helpful - thank you for all you're doing to make Year Three a success! 🎄🤩
Thank you, Stephanie. Last year was my first time attending, and I loved it. I am looking forward to this year's event.
Thank you for all you do to bring this great event to us! I can't wait!

Great explanation!! I like your orange sweater also. :)
Jingle Ball Headquarters!!😂❤🎉
Seriously good Steph - thanks.
I am soooo excited about this! I just can’t wait!!
I'm excited for my first Ball. I like one of the classes, but I also want to buy some exclusive designs. Right now, I'm not sure where to put my money. And then there's merch!
Thanks, Stephanie!!👏👏👏
You are such a trooper holding the hands of we technophobes!
Very helpful, thank you
So excited! 🎉
Very helpful! Thanks

Thanks for this information!
I met Cathy Haberman during last year's speed dating!
Thank you

Will there be a jingle ball book for sale this year? Thank you for all your efforts.

Does it handle things like Zoom or other livestreams well?

@@shellycampis6226 thank you! Makes me feel better . 😌
❤❤❤
Thanks for the info. Can you buy classes/kits before you have the $10 event ticket?
You need to have your general admission ticket first.
@@lindystitches Thanks!
I just purchased my general admission tix. I received your email. So to join the event on Dec 6th, I join the event on the email I received.? I hope that’s not a stupid question. First timer here. 😂
If we miss the actual class time, how fast will it be available to view? Same weekend or later? Thanks.
immediately after the class and then for 30 days afterward
I am a rookie Jingle Baller! If I purchase JB GA Ticket on Friday can I come back at a later time and purchase a class, if I so wish? So excited to attend!
Yes absolutely!
Just keep using one email and it will all be added to your profile. :)
Joining for the first time this year. Just trying to do the time conversion. Question, if i sign up to the newsletter , should i have had an email by now or are those still to come out ?
If you just signed up you'll get the next issue tomorrow :)
So, is this correct... Does the kitted choice include both the class cost and the kit? So I don't pay for the PDF class and then pay for the kit... Is that correct? Just one cost?
Yes one or the other
Hi this will be my first. I am international and so excited. Do I need to buy the general ticket plus the classes or if I buy the classes, I will.automatically have access to the general?
You have to buy a general ticket
Stephanie, will there be any Hanukkah items this year?
I am not sure because I haven’t seen the exclusive designs 🤞

Great question! I would check out for one person at a time. You can put your info in the ticket buyer fields and theirs in the ticket holder fields!
So, if I'm understanding this correctly, if i want a kit, i should check out with the $10 ticket and the most wanted class kit and then i can go back in and check out say with merch at a later time?
The merch is just for sale on www.thejingleball.net. The tickets are on a different website.
In order to participate this year I have to make a whole other email because my email address of 15 or more years has been hotmail and I can’t use that!? At 67 yrs old I may end up missing this year sadly because I’m not good at finding and setting up a different email platform ☹

I know it’s a virtual event, but can I attend in my boxers? 🎉😅

That won't happen this year. We changed the format of the tables. The only "issue" might be that they could get too full and noisy. If that happens, just move to another table. :)
How will i be able to view the class? Is it on UA-cam or do I need Facebook?
It is all on our event platform! You can look back at my "navigating the ball" video from last year to see how it looks.
Question: Do you need to check out with the $10 ticket before you can add classes? Last year I tried checking out with the $10 ticket and 3 classes, but it wouldn’t let me until i first paid the $10.
Yes :)
So yes checkout with GA ticket first or can add GA and class to cart? @lindystitches also, pdf class has no limit? Only kits?
Are the shopping hall all pdf or hard copies of things?
A mix of both!
If I buy a kit class ticket, do I need to purchase a class ticket as well?
The kitted ticket is all you need!
You didn't mention, OR I missed it even though I watched this video 3X, you can only use "1" device per ticket. For example, I have a computer without a camera, the only camera I have is on my phone.

Yes you can use a credit card. You can check out with your hotmail, just not buy a ticket with it. I hope that makes sense!
@@lindystitches makes sense; thank you for the quick response!

So if you don’t want a kit, just the PDF, it will not ever be sold out? Is that what I am understanding. Only if you want a kit, will it show sold out? Thanks Chris
The PDF ticket won’t sell out.
