RESORTS SWAP *CLOSED* Thanks

[bigsis1970]

Hi Everyone , seems we have covered most everything else I thought I would host my 1st swap and do a resort swap.. All Disney Resorts are included as well as the Swan, Dolphin and Shades of Green. I hope this isn't too confusing - if so maybe a swap hosting Vet can help us out. Michelle

* Due Date is July 24th (All packages will be mailed by Aug 9th as that is when I am leaving for my Summer Camping Vacation) *

***~~~~The Rules and Instructions~~~~***

1. Choose a RESORT
2. Select 1 element to make for your Resort in your group
3. PM me with your DIS name, name and address - so I can pre-address the return envelopes.
4. Post your weekly status on this thread - I will update all info such as sent and received here.
5. Packing Instructions - use a Ziploc for each person and put everything for that person into their bag. Please label each bag with your name so we know who made each element. You‘ll have up to 12 bags to enclose in the larger (gallon size) Ziploc bag. - be sure to include your name, your DIS name. Include $4.05 (for 3 resorts or less) or $ 8.10 (for 4 or more) for postage or stamps if you don't want to send cash to return your items.
7. PM me if you have problems and need to drop out or if an emergency happens (we all know things happen beyond our control sometimes), let me know so we can make arrangements for an angel or other help if needed.
8. All Resorts are listed with a Group of 12 people max
9. HAVE FUN!!

Thanks for hosting!

[havencruiser]

As a swapping Vet, I have a question.....

Once a resort is chosen (example: Old Key West - slide mounts and bookmark), does that mean that nobody else can do it? If so, we will end up with only two pieces for each resport and I think there will be multiple people who would like to do a resort. Perhaps, several folks could choose a resort until all the elements are chosen for a particular resort.

[MazdaUK]

Will you accept overseas swappers?

If so I'd like to put down for 2 photo mats for Coronado Springs please.

Oooh I'm excited!

[bigsis1970]

Hi MazdaUK sure why not - If you can get your package out to me a little sooner then the deadline for the US to ensure I get those out on time that would be great. Thanks Michelle

[mickeyfan2]

I would take Beach Club (group 1) and I will do 2 Frames.

ETA: Also Pop Century (group 2) and I will do 1 Topper.

[bigsis1970]

Ok All updated :wizard:

[New England Eeyore]

I've been thinking about this all night. Could you put me down for :

[bigsis1970]

[bigsis1970]

[bigsis1970]

[Downrivermama]

[jedi_librarian]

Could I do group 1 Coronado Springs - 4 embellished squares?

Thanks!

[kaddjr]

Put me down for Resorts 1 ASMu 2 tags. :)

[bigsis1970]

Ok welcome aboard girls.. all updated.. Michelle

[jennyL]

I've had some ideas so please add me to the additional groups below.

Group 1:
Port Orleans Riverside - 2 photo mats
Animal Kingdom lodge - 2 tags

[MazdaUK]

Thanks Bigsis1970 - I've got the kids home next week for half term, but once they're back I'll get moving double-quick and I'll aim to mail by end June. I'll send a bit extra for postage as mine will probably be more expensive - will a cheque be OK?

[New England Eeyore]

Okay, I've got some more ideas
(All Group 1)
Wilderness Lodge - Box and Tag
Coronado Springs - Mini file folder
Pop Century - Paper Piecing
Animal Kingdom Lodge - Slide mounts.

I've been racking my brain - I also have pictures of POR and GF, but I'm stumped for ideas for those 2. Any suggestions?

[PixieDust32]

Add me to the Beach Club please!

1 Library Pocket and Tag

[PixieDust32]

Please Add me to Beach Club.

1 Library Pocket and Tag

[PixieDust32]

Also GRAND FLORIDIAN.

1 Topper

[YodasMom]

I've been racking my brain - I also have pictures of POR and GF, but I'm stumped for ideas for those 2. Any suggestions?

I don't know if this is any help at all.........but, the Grand Floridian seems to have a tropical, turn-of-the century, Victorian theme so I would think any element with this theming would work well. Hope you decide to join this one, too! :goodvibes

[New England Eeyore]

Okay... a sale on paper and a few more ideas means I'm signing up for a few more. Can you tell I love the resorts?

Boardwalk Inn - topper
All Star Sports - 2 journaling boxes
Grand Floridian - Tag and 2 squares

[MazdaUK]

If the resort you've chosen is not full by 5/31, does that mean you just need to make enough for the people who've signed up?

[rlovew]

Put me down for shaker boxes at the Carribean Beach in Resort Group 2.

Thanks!

[PixieDust32]

I also want the Coronado Springs 1 TOPPER..

[kaddjr]

If the resort you've chosen is not full by 5/31, does that mean you just need to make enough for the people who've signed up?

I was wondering the same thing...I need to have these done before we leave on June 30. :confused3

[bigsis1970]

Ok girls -- sorry i have been away for the long glorious holiday weekend !!! I will update all the spaces tonight when i get home -- I do have a hand written copy that each of you are on. As for what should we do when tomorrow rolls around sign ups close. I will let you all chime in on it.. I think it might be good to combine the groups since most of them are 10 or under with both combined (POP is the only one at 12) and it really doesn't look like too many people picked the same things. Let me know what you think..

[bigsis1970]

Also -- just wanted to make sure i note that New England Eeyore - Had to move you from Pop 1 to Pop 2 for Paper Piecing ..
Fanofthemouse - In Pop 1 you have Paper Piecing and in Pop 2 you will have 4 Squares and also that Topper has been picked for the GF would you like something else?
ddavis - sure which ever pocket & tag template you have will be fine I am sure.
Michelle

[YodasMom]

I think it might be good to combine the groups since most of them are 10 or under with both combined (POP is the only one at 12) and it really doesn't look like too many people picked the same things. Let me know what you think..

If there are any groups with just me in them alone, you can cancel those groups ...LOL! I'll look forward to your update.

[fanofthemouse]

how about if I do a file folder for Grand Floridian

Now what will happen if you signed up for both Pop Century groups???

[bigsis1970]

Ok Yodasmom I will keep that in mind tonight when updating

fanofthemouse & others who have the same ? - If you are in both groups I will put you down for all that you signed up for at this point and if you choose to take out one that would be fine or you can choose to keep both slots.

I will start a new thread I think with the new list labeled "Resort Swap final list and details" so be on the look out it won't be up till after 9pm we have a soft ball game tonight ..

[hopemax]

Since the B groups didn't fill up as fast, and so I don't have to make as many I will also sign up for

Group A: Yacht & Beach Club - 2 Slide Mounts

[jennyL]

OK I'm tryung to catch up. I leave for WDW tomorrow so if I don't respond to questions don't worry. However I'm fine with combining the groups and I will go down to just one for the two that I'm in both groups if thats the decision. I can do either one so if we have duplicates just let me know which one to make and I'll go from there.

I would also like to add to:

Polynesian: 1 JB and 1 Tag

I'll check back in tonight and maybe in the morning and if I need to make any changes let me know and I will answer when I get back.

[fanofthemouse]

I think there are two of us signed up for paper piecing for pop century. I can do the squares only Just let me know.

[PixieDust32]

:thumbsup2

[bigsis1970]

Ok Ladies - I think I have everything transfered to the new thread - be sure to check each resort you signed up for and let me know of any mistakes or changes - I tried to add my name to all the ones that only had 2 other ladies in it to make it worth while . Michelle

[YodasMom]

I have a question. In my group for BC/YC/BCV I am doing two frames. I will make one for BC/BCV and the other for the YC. Is that ok?

I'm planning to do the same thing. I have a journaling box and two squares. I will make one BC and one YC square.

[hopemax]

I did that for my slide mounts too: one yachty, one beachy

[AlexWyattMommy]

I'm doing kinda the same thing with Port Orleans Riverside, the squares are Magnolia Bend and the journaling box is Alligator Bayou.

[MyLittlePiglet]

Can anyone you has stayed there give a quick highlight of the highlights LOL. Like OKW has the sand castle slide and the lighthouse sauna etc.... what sticks out for YC?
