Love is an Open Door

Wait, what? 

"More doors?"  

"I thought doors were a major part of last year's theme."  


Just bear with me, because, once you see this year's collection, you will fall instantly in love!  First things first.  Let's talk about the gorgeousness of this year's project bag.




Once again, Amanda from 
YBSquare has created a stunning project bag for this year's collection.  Fully reversible, this project bag is ready for any adventure, allowing you to decide which side you wish to show the world on any given day. Measuring 3 3/4 x 6 1/2 boxed bottom; 11 1/2 inches tall and 20 3/4" around, they are just the right size to pop into your backpack or satchel while you brave an icy force both foul and fair, and it is loaded with amazing features.  

From the Artist:
There is so much to work with in this movie; castles, seasons, ice monsters, snowmen, reindeer, ice blocks, boats, fabric motifs, sleighs, rock trolls, funny themes, serious themes...After thinking on our overall theme for this year, I went more subtle.  It's always fun to find fabrics that are on-theme, but don't give away the theme at first glance.

The clothing designs in Frozen were full of detail and warmth.  To highlight that, I was able to find a fabric design that was inspired by one of Ana's dresses, so that side of the project bag is for her.  Ela's ice is the major player in the story, so for her side, we have a variety of sharp but soft ice diamonds with motifs in them that echo motifs from hers and Anna's clothing.  ~~Amanda 




Use the cotton webbing wrist handle to dangle it from your wrist, or the carabiner to attach it to your beltloop while you're making your way to a forest trading post to lay in provisions.  The silk locking-toggled drawstring will ensure that nothing escapes while careening down icy roads and outrunning packs of hungry wolves, or climbing up the icy side of the North Mountain.  And when you reach the top and just want to take a moment to rest and soak in the view, the rectangular base allows you to keep on stitching without worry that the bag will topple over.

These project bags will be produced in a limited number and will be available for pre-order once the entire collection has been introduced.  Don't venture too far, there' more to come!

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!

See you real soon!

Can't wait for this weekend with my fellow Disney friends and stitchers. If you didn't get the email with this Saturday's infor...
