Ook-lay in the Ag-bay...

 

Sulley:  Mike, that's not her door.
Mike:  What are you talking about? Of course it's her door. It's her door.
Sulley:  No. Her door was white and it had flowers on it.
Mike:  No. It must've been dark last night because this is its door.

No Stitch the Magic collection is complete without an amazing project bag, and this year's does not disappoint!  Amanda from YBSquare has done it again with the Keep the Doors Coming Project Bag!

From the Artist:

Monsters Inc has been one of my favorites since its release. I did struggle a little with fabrics for this one. The doors were easy but the other fabric, not so much. There is so much to work with! Sushi, those awesome glasses, different monsters, kids toys, the CDA, … I went with a Code 23-19 reference. Do you recognize the monster George Sanderson coloring and the infamous sock?

About the bags: they are complete reversible, so you can pick which side to show each day. As these are handmade, the fabric placement will vary.  Each bag has a cotton webbing handle for wrist wearing, a carabiner for clipping to most anything and a cord lock on the drawstring.  It is also machine washable, just remove the carabiner and wash on delicate.

 ~~~Amanda

The measurements for this bag are 3 3/4 x 6 1/2 boxed bottom; 11 1/2 inches tall and 20 3/4" around.  Measurements may vary up to 1/4".  Whether your chosen fiber art expression is knitting, crochet, weaving drop-spindling, or hand embroidery, this bag Is the perfect size for the fiber artist on-the-go.  

Pre-sales will open once the entire collection has been revealed, and, as last year, there will be a bonus item for those who order the entire collection, but we'll cover that in another post.  

But wait there's more to come from Monstropolis!...in our next post.  Stay tuned!

Asante sana!

What Stitch The Magic collection would be complete without a truly amazing project bag?  This year we have teamed up with Amanda aka ybSquare in Tampa, FL, and just wait until you see what she has in store for you!  

This is a great bag for on-the-go fiber arts!  Whether your chosen fiber arts expression is knitting, crocheting, weaving, drop-spindling, or any form of embroidery, this bag is the perfect size for everyone!  The measurements for this bag are 3 3/4 x 6 1/2 boxed bottom; 11 1/2 inches tall and 20 3/4" around.  Measurements may vary up to 1/4".

Safari Project Bag

From the artist:

        "For this fun collection inspired by The Lion King, I went with first impressions.  When I first think of the movie, I think safari and then oasis.  I found both of these awesome prints on Spoonflower.  The first is a cool tribal pattern with safari animal silhouettes and the colors were perfect for what I was looking for.  The second represents the oasis that Simba spent his youth in and where Nala found him.  This print is full of lush vegetation and the silhouettes f young lions or lionesses jumping throughout.  Since these bags are complete reversible, you can pick which wild side to show each day."

        "A little bit more about the bags:  as these are handmade, the fabric placement will vary, for the oasis side, this will be less noticeable, however, for the safari side the animals will not be in the same place on every bag.  Each bag has a cotton webbing handle for wrist wearing, a carabiner for clipping to most anything and a cord lock on the drawstring.  It is also machine washable, just remove the carabiner and wash on delicate."           ~~Amanda

Yes you read that right...IT IS COMPLETELY REVERSIBLE!

Pre-sales will open once the entire collection has been revealed...which is to say, very soon!  And remember, there are bonus incentives for getting the entire collection!

Registration is now open at the Beach Bunny Yarns website. Space is limited, however, so make sure you register early, and save the date.

 

What is "Stitch the Magic" and how can I participate?

 

Stitch the Magic is an annual social event at Walt Disney World for Disney fans who happen to be fiber artists as well.  Dizzy Blonde Studios and Beach Bunny Yarns, are your hosts for this magical occasion.  Each dyer creates an event-exclusive custom colorway based on each year’s selected theme.  Once revealed, yarns are available for pre-order before the event, and purchase after event, while supplies last.  

The weekend begins with a Stitchers' meet-up at the designated resort area within the Walt Disney World property, where we provide goodies bags to registered attendees, ice-breaker and other fun activities, along with prizes of the yarny nature.  Then, on Sunday we venture into that year's selected park.  Space is limited, so keep watching this blog for updates!   

Now, you can chose to join us for the entire weekend, just the meet-up or whatever amount of time in both you choose.  We will always post directions and instructions for both.  Keep in mind that parking can get a little tricky for the meet-up, so we will provide you with different options as we get closer to the event.

Please follow us on our socials for all the juicy details!

Stitch the Magic 2022 Exclusive Collection

 

And without further ado, we bring you the Stitch the Magic 2022 Collection in its entirety

(Click on the pic to embiggen)

Prices are posted with each item.  Did you know that $3 of each skein purchase and $2 of each stitch marker set will be donated to The Marine Science Center of Ponce Inlet.  So, for every bundle purchased $8.00 will be donated.  The Marine Science Center suffered damage from hurricane Ian, so every dollar donated helps them rebuild so they can save even more sea turtles and other marine wildlife.

And don't forget, bundled purchases ship for free and receive the Heart of Te Fiti  reversible shawl fastener, an $18 value, free.  Bundles are extremely limited, as is the number of project bags.  Just select "Moana 2022 Bundle" from the dropdown menu

Place your order HERE

What's This "Bundle" Business?

 Just a quicky explanation of what we mean by bundle, and what sort of perks and extras you get when you purchase a bundle.

First, a bundle consists of one of each collection item:  One skein "The Journey Home" one skein "I Know the Way", one set of Moana-themed stitch markers, and one Voyagers' Project Bag.  

And when you purchase this bundle, your order not only ships for free, but there is an amazing bundle upgrade:  A "Heart of Te Fiti" reversable shawl fastener!

The shawl fastener is 3D printed and features the Heart of Te Fiti on one side, and a Mickey Mouse silhouette on the other.  The detail in the heart is amazing!  The shawl fastener is valued at $18, but is only available when purchasing the Stitch The Magic 2022 Collection Bundle, and then it's free, along with shipping!

Orders for this year's Stitch The Magic Moana collection will open a little later on today!

Last But Certainly Not Least...

Voyagers' Bag

Our final item of our exclusive Stitch the Magic 2022 Collection inspired by the Disney full-length feature Moana is this exquisite project bag from Not Knots.  These project bags are all hand-made by Silvia Mendoza in California.  

The exterior fabric is inspired by Polynesian tribal art, in lovely beachy colors.  The exterior also features a strong webbed wrist handle, a locking-toggle drawstring closure and parachute cord drawstrings which are decorated with beautiful coordinating pony beads  The lining fabric echos the Heart of Te Fiti, and the interior pockets, including Not Knots' signature "Needle Niche" feature Moana herself, as well as other characters of the story. 

These bags are truly beautiful and measure 9 inches tall, 10.5 inches wide with  4 inch gusset, which makes for a generous, self-standing rectangular base.  The shorter (but wider) size makes it the ideal grab-and-go bag for a communKNITy on the go.  It is the perfect size for those one-skein projects that we like to work on while traveling, waiting at an appointment, or spending time at your favorite theme park with your favorite people!  

There is an extremely limited quantity, so get them wile supplies last.  Quantities will be limited to one per customer, or one per bundle*.  Pre-orders for the entire collection will be opening soon until a week after our Stitch the Magic event on December 3, 2022.  But, to be quite honest, I think they will sell out way before pre-orders close.  Orders will be filled on a first come-first served basis.  But when they're gone, they're gone!  In the unlikely occurrence that there are any bags left over after pre-orders close, you can purchase them directly from the website.  (Link to be activated on 12/10/2022)

*Bundles will be defined in the next blog post.
