The Devil is in the Details...

It’s almost time to scream with laughter as we join together to meet new friends, catch up with those familiar, talk about our love of all things Disney, and stitch the afternoon away.

We will start our gathering at 1:00 PM on Saturday, January 25^th.  Plan to hang out until around 4:30 PM or until we can’t stitch anymore.  This year’s location is at Disney’s Coronado Springs – Old Lobby.  Where is the old lobby?  It’s on the left side of the tower, just past the bus stops, but not as far as the Convention Center entrance.  Attached is a map showing you our approximate location.

What to bring:
In addition to your lovely selves, feel free to bring your Stitch the Magic WIPs, or any other projects you may be working on. 
We do have a few items left of this year’s exclusive merchandise.  If you haven’t already, please support our dyers and crafters and order some cool stuff HERE.  We aren’t allowed to sell on property, so you’ll have to order before you go.  There’s still some yarn, T-shirts, and notions left.

We have a completely full registration this year.  If you are unable to attend, please email:  alicia@beachbunnyyarns.com to let us know.

If you have a park ticket and would like to join us for our park excursion on Sunday, we are playing the day away at the Magic Kingdom.  Don’t worry; you don’t have to spend the whole day with us.  We hope to all get in on the Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor and scream with laughter, all the while wearing our 2025 themed T-shirts (so wear ‘em if ya got ‘em).  Please fill out the attached Google form below with your info so we can keep you up to date on where we are.

We are so looking forward to hanging out with you at the Stitch the Magic 2025 event.  See you real soon!

How do I get to Disney’s Coronado Springs?

The first, and coolest, option is to book a room at Coronado Springs Resort.  Then, you’ve got access to all of Disney World’s amenities and the theme parks are just a quick bus ride away.

The second option is to drive to the Coronado Springs Resort.  At the guard gate, tell the guard you are there to dine at Rix Café or the El Mercado food court.  Once you go through the guard gate, take an immediate left into the convention center parking lot.  Head towards the blue-roofed overhang just left of the Disney bus stop.  This option may be limited due to a full parking lot or other events.

Or the third option, park at one of the garages at Disney Springs and catch the bus to Coronado Springs Resort.  Know that the bus ride itself is ~18+ minutes.  Please allow an extra half hour to wait at the bus station in addition to the bus ride so you won’t be late.

Laughter is the Best Medicine

 

Time to reveal our second pattern created just for us this year.  Our knitting pattern comes from another popularly-talented Florida designer: Paula King of KraziKnitz Designs, and is quite stunning worked up using both "That Darn Paperwork" and "Always Watching".  If you wish, you could substitute "Googly Bear" for one of the other colors, and really make a statement!

The Power of Laughter

From the Designer:

The ending of Monsters, Inc helped me decide on the inspiration for The Power of Laughter Wrap. The stitch patterns is directly inspired by things in the film such as the closet doors that the monsters use to enter the human world. The other stitch patterns showing the generation of energy in the monster world. This wrap pattern is a rectangle worked on the bias, which adds to the tilted world view of this film. They say laughter is the best medicine and the power of it can change worlds.

Paula is offering The Power of Laughter Wrap to our Magic Stitchers at a discounted price, but only for a limited time.  Currently, the pattern is only available for pre-order as a digital pattern here, or you can receive this pattern for free when you pre-order the 23-19 Combo.  Patterns will be distributed once the pre-orders are ready to ship.
