Good News! We are pleased to announce that we have been able to add space in each of Anne Hanson’s classes during Fiber Fest. At the same time, an additional spot has opened up in the Tunisian Crochet Basics class. If you were unable to get into a class that was sold out, we have a very limited number of spaces available. For the time being, each of these additional class spaces must be registered and paid for through our PayPal registration system. First come, first served!

Extra Spots Available in Sold Out Classes!
Saturday, February 26th, 2011Early Registration update and Wait List policy
Wednesday, November 17th, 2010Based on the registration numbers so far, the 2011 will be a banner year for DFW Fiber Fest!
To give you some idea of the numbers for early class registrations for the 2011 event, we are already at class capacity for Anne Hanson’s Advanced Lace Knitting class and two of her other classes are close to filling. If you are thinking about taking one of Anne’s classes, be sure to register soon!
As the classes do sell out, we will maintain a Wait List for the filled classes. If you would like to be placed on the Wait List for any class, please email your request to our Registrations Chairperson, Liz Grigorian, at registrations@dfwfiberfest.org . If we receive a cancellation for any of the classes, Liz will contact individuals on the Wait List in the order that they are placed on the List. If you are contacted as a part of the Wait List, youwill have a five (5) day grace period to respond to the offer to be placed on the class roster for that class before the class spot is offered to the next person on the List. (This grace period will be reduced to 48 hours beginning
March 1, 2011.)
We are also happy to say we have over 200 Fans on the DFW Fiber Fest Facebook page. If you are not a fan, go to Facebook and Like us! Once we have 300 fans, we will conduct a random drawing for one of our logo bags.
Registration starts tomorrow!
Friday, October 29th, 2010Online Registration for DFW Fiber Fest 2011 opens Saturday at 10am CST. Please mark your calendars and share with your fiber friends, guilds, and groups!
Your Paypal confirmation will be your class confirmation unless you are taking a full weekend of classes. Liz, our registration chair, will follow up with a personal confirmation within a week. As a bonus, the first 20 people to register will receive a 1 inch DFW Fiber Fest logo label pin for free in their goody bags. Folks - these are gorgeous, and will sell for $5 at the event.
Here are the costs and a Paypal FAQ:
EARLY BIRD DISCOUNT:
Payment:
$36 for each two-hour class
$52 for each three-hour class
$94 for each six-hour class
$250 for the entire weekend (18/19 hours of classes) including Friday Night

Payment:
$41 for each two-hour class
$62 for each three-hour class
$114 for each six-hour class
$300 for the entire weekend (18/19 hours of classes) including Friday Night
How to Use the PayPal Cart:
- Click Add to Cart next to your class selections. This will open a separate view cart window that will then continue to be updated as you add more selections to your cart.
- When you are finished, click either the “Checkout” or “Checkout with PayPal” button in the view cart window to complete your registration. The “Checkout” option is for using a Credit Card through PayPal while the “Checkout with PayPal” option is for payment of funds from your PayPal account. (If you are not logged in to PayPal, you may not see the latter button.)
- You may also stop and return later by clicking the View Cart button (at the bottom) to resume your session. Note that holding a class in your cart does not guarantee registration; your space will not be reserved until the purchase is complete. Once a class is full, the “Add to Cart” option will no longer be active and will be replaced with a “Sold Out” indicator.
- If signing up for more than one person, be sure to indicate the names of all students along with their email addresses in the PayPal “Instructions to Seller” field.
- If choosing the “Entire Weekend” option, do not forget to indicate your class choices in PayPal’s Text field. Please be certain that none of the classes you are signing up for are Sold Out.
- We will use your Paypal email address to communicate with you, and your shipping address if we need to mail you anything. Please ensure they are correct. If you would prefer a different email address is used, please note it in the “Add special instructions to the seller” box.
If you have any questions at all, please email us at info@dfwfiberfest.org, or call (214) 799-1347.
We’re very excited about the line-up for 2011 and are looking forward to seeing everybody there!
