*What is "Stitch the Magic"?

 Read all about it here

It's scary just how quickly this year has gone by!  Can you believe that we are just 3 months out from our next Stitch the Magic event?  What better time to get this party started by revealing this year's theme!

Because we have so much exciting news and information to share with you, we are going to forego our usual tease of the theme, and dive right in.  So, without further ado, this year's Stitch the Magic event is inspired by... 

Disney's & Pixar's 2001 full-length animated feature:  Monsters, Inc!

We are extremely excited about this year's exclusive collection, and will be revealing each and every item over the next few days/weeks, along with meet-up and park excursion details.  You definitely won't want to miss out!  So, if you haven't done so already, follow us on Facebook and Instagram.  Who knows, we might even post a TikTok or two, if we're feeling especially adventurous!

Here we go again

Happy first week of Autumn!  We hope your summer was a blast.  Now that the days are getting shorter, we're realizing that it's almost time to get the ball rolling and get excited for the Stitch the Magic 2025 event.  It's scary how fast the year goes by, but we're ready for it.

So.....mark your calendars for Saturday, January 25, 2025 (& Sunday, January 26th if you want to join us in the Magic Kingdom park).  We've pick a new meeting location at Disney's Coronado Springs Resort.  The resort is gorgeous with plenty of common areas inside and out, as well as lots of options for food and drinks.

Explore the resort HERE and maybe book a room for the weekend 😁.  

More info to come soon.  Keep watching for this event's theme movie....

Save the Date!

 Mark your calendars for the 2025 Stitch the Magic event.

January 25-26, 2025

Keep following us for more details.  We can't wait to see you there!

Ni karibu wakati

The time is almost here!

Meeting Time:  Saturday, January 20th, 12:00 pm

Meeting Location:  Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge - Jambo House

We're so excited to see you all at the 2024 Stitch the Magic event this Saturday!  We've been watching the weather and it seems to change hour by hour.  We have 2 options and we'll just have to wing it that morning.  We will post Mr. Bunny at the lobby entrance to direct you where we'll be.

(click on map to enlarge)

Option 1:  The Uzima Pool area (down the elevator/stairs and follow the signs), behind The Mara quick service restaurant.

Option 2:  The Sunset Overlook on the left side of the lobby behind the check-in desks.

We've got some fun activities in store for you all, including ways to earn more chances to win one of the door prizes!  We highly encourage everyone to bring their knit or crochet project for some show & tell and social stitching.

The Mara is a quick-service restaurant offering a variety of snacks and meals.  And the pool bar opens at 11:00 in case you enjoy a little adult beverage during social gatherings (I know I do!)  Everyone is welcome to purchase food and beverages to be consumed during the meet-up.

For those who have not already picked up their pre-ordered Pride Rock Packs, we will have them at the event for you to collect.  For those who have ordered T-shirts prior to the first deadline, we'll be distributing those there as well.  There are public restrooms close to each of our possible locations for a quick change, if you so desire.

If you'll be joining us on Sunday, January 21, 2024 in the Animal Kingdom Theme Park, please fill out the Theme Park Excursion Registration form with your contact information so we can let keep you up to date on all the details:  When and where to meet us, etc.

And finally, where to park for free to get to Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge?

1. If you are a annual pass-holder, you can park at any of the theme parks and catch the resort bus to AKL - Jambo House.
2. You can park at one of the Disney Springs' garages and catch the bus to AKL - Jambo House.  The bus ride itself is 30+ minutes and can be standing room only at times.  Please allow an extra half hour or more to wait at the bus station in addition to the us ride so you won't be late and miss out on some of the fun.
3. You can try your luck at Animal Kingdom Lodge itself.  Drive to the AKL main gate and kindly ask the gate guard for entrance.  If there is no other big event, or if they are feeling generous, they may let you park as a day guest.  You can tell them that you are going to the Mara restaurant, or going to the gift shop.  Since Stitch the Magic isn't an official event, they will not recognize it as such, so any mention might get you a blank stare.  If that doesn't work, parking at Disney Springs is your best option, however, please allow yourself plenty of time, just in case.

Looking forward to seeing everyone very soon!

Asante sana!

 

Wow!  Thank you all so much.  We've actually reached our registration goal.  The website is closed for future registrations, but all that means is that all the goody/swag bags have been claimed.  If you didn't register and still would like to join us, PLEASE DO!  We will still have a little something for your effort.  Just email us at:  info@beachbunnyyarns.com  to get the info you need to find us.

And there's still time to order yarn, bags, stitch markers, and the whole Pride Rock Pack.  Visit Stitch the Magic to order, and thank you for supporting our small businesses.  We love sharing our love of fiber arts and Disney with all of you.

It's also not too late to order our 2024 themed T-shirts.  Check those out here:  Awesome T-shirts

Thank you again, and see you real soon!

The Circle of Life...Choosing Conservation

The Beach Bunnies and the Dizzy Blonde all feel strongly about giving back to our communities through conservation.  And towards that end we are both donating a portion of our proceeds to this year's chosen non-profit, Delilah's 2nd Chance Rescue.  But we want to do more.  So, this year, we are trying to raise more funds by selling event T-shirts.  100% of the proceeds will be donated to Delilah's 2nd chance.

The t-shirts are 4.2 oz, 52% airlume combed and ringspun cotton/48% polyester.  They are pre-shrunk, lightweight and oh-so-very soft.  The shirts are relaxed fit (unisex) and feature tapered shoulders, a comfortable crew neck with a tear-away tag, side seams and short sleeves.  In staying with the theme of this year's gathering, Disney's Lion King, we chose a heathered brick shirt with a Stitch the Magic emblem done in goldenrod screen printing.

Arrive at the event and/or park excursion in style!  

T-shirts will only be available through pre-order here.  

In order to have the shirts produced and then shipped in time for you to wear to the event, the last day to order will be December 28, 2023.  So don't miss out.  Order your shirt today!

The Pride Rock Pack

 And without further ado, we bring you The Stitch The Magic 2024 Collection (aka the Pride Rock Pack) in its entirety!

(Click picture to embiggen in order to see the fine print)

Prices are posted with each item of the collection. 

As an incentive, when you purchase the Pride Rock Pack in its entirety, not only will your Pack ship for free, but it will also include this beautiful custom-embroidered commemorative patch, a $12 value.

Did you know that a portion of each bundle and $3 of each individual skein purchase will be donated to Delilah's 2nd Chance Rescue of Port St. Lucie, FL?  Delilah's 2nd Chance Rescue is a non-profit (501(c)(3)) animal rescue organization that specializes saving, rehabilitating and placing animals in forever homes.  

Every item in this year's collection has been carefully crafted by local artists throughout Florida.  So, not only will you be receiving well-crafted, high quality products, you will be supporting small businesses in our communities.  It's a win-WIN!

Pre-orders are open now, but will close on January 12, 2024. After which, you may be able to purchase items individually, but The Pack...errr...pact (the incentives) will no longer be available.  Quantities are limited, so order early to ensure availability.

Place your order HERE

While you're at it, registration for the meet-up event is still open, but the event is filling up fast!  Register here
