Yup... It left my mail box this morning - happily on it's way to Tenn. :woohoo:

I'm thrilled you are posting your auction things here, you know I don't do FB so its nice to see more of your talent :goodvibes
 
Here is a picture of Sam that DH took yesterday, sorry if you already saw it but I know someone asked for pictures.

Loving all the bags. Your trip is getting so close. That dismeet sounds like fun. Can't wait to see the bag that is headed for Tennessee. Good luck getting your stuff finished and with the listing process. I really like how your lanyards have the printt fabrics, they go so well with the themed wallets.

Chiara - Sam is so cute. She looks like a real sweetheart.
 
PLEASE tell me I have heard this all my life and never quite understood the use
of this term/analogy :confused3 what am I missing I mean they are both fruits...I don't get it so I ask here in my "safe place" :goodvibes

Well someone has probably already explained but yes they are both fruits but 2 totally different fruits. You can compare different kinds of apples easier than you can compare apples and oranges...

Edit:D did a much better job explaining than I did.

Love the bags and gac,s d! They are just amazing monsters inc one is my fave.
 
First I have to tell you what Dan said when I told him you said you don't think you're that creative, you just sew. He said "That's like Michaelangelo saying he just paints ceilings!" I kid you not. And he's right, you modest young lady. Love all the bags. Really love them!!

Chaira, Sam is beautiful! And she looks so alert. Thanks for sharing.
 
Chiara! She's gorgeous!!! She looks exactly like you, well what I can tell of from a teeny pic on disboards.
Congratulations!
 
More amazing bags!!! Love how Woody is looking through Buzz!! Also love how it looks like waves at the top of the Crush bag!! May have found another favorite!! :rotfl2:
 
Can you get any more talented?!?!?!
Honest to Goodness D~ you amaze me every time with your creations..
'
Going back to catch up now...

Awww... Shucks - you're making me blush. :rolleyes1

I love Woody's expression. You caught it perfectly! the LGM are so cute, aren't they?!

Amazing, just amazing. (Or as we say here in Orioles country O-mazing!!!!!)

LOL THanks Tess!

D you are making it very hard for me to choose just one bag to bid on.

I think C and I are going to have to figure that out.

popcorn::

Sitting here highly anticipating the rest of the bags. Will they be Cars? Wall-E? Ratatouille? Up? Finding Nemo? Brave? Incredibles? Hmmmm, I think that covers them all. Yes I am way too obsessed with this.

I have a feeling this is going to be a bit disappointing to you... As I did not have the time to do them all - no matter how badly I wanted to.

I feel the same way. Good thing Dh's bday is Weds. not Thursday, because I am NOT leaving my computer Thursday. Don't want to miss bidding on what could be my dream bag.

I hope you all have fun watching my auctions - seeing as I will be at at work all day... :confused3

Chiming in with thoughts all over the place because its MONDAY and thats typical for me:

1-Wall-E now THAT Ariana would be a GREAT idea, that poor little fellow gets so lost he almost doesn't exist How adorable is he ?? If there is any truth to the wild rumors spreading, and I'm not sure I believe them,when DHS gets a major over haul the internet ..NOT Disney..is speculating that there will be a pixar land, a star wars land, and a cars land... wouldn't that be awesome..of course all speculation and probably won't happen & if so not until like 2018 BUT Wall-E could then come out of the shadows

I love PIxar - so I would be all for this!

2-D-BB of COURSE I wouldn't mind sitting out you going on slides and would you mind me sitting on a lounge chair with a book while you do ? What do I say a lot "no worries...It's ALL good" and I truly mean it

Awesome - now if my girls will go on the little slides with me... popcorn:: I still need to get Alli's swimsuit bottom for our trip, I've been procrastinating.

3- D mentioned I am trying to coordinate a larger DisMeet for August TRUE
and I am thinking DHS Sun Aug 25th for THIS: from 6 pm to 10 pm

http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/bl...-studios-is-next-limited-time-magic-surprise/

This looks like the perfect place to have alot of fun together, all ages, and IMHO except for the Long Lost Friends week (which was awesome) this is FINALLY what Limited Time Magic should be


my PTR link is in my signature line if you're interested please post over there and I'll get a centrally located list going would like to meet so many of you if possible

Ruthie

Well - Our DHS day works perfectly for this... We have a 4:25 dinner ADR at Sci-Fi - so we will likely be there promptly at 6... However - I cannot guarantee how long we will be staying, as we are going to for sure try to do Fantasmic this night. And don't forget the following morning we have Blizzard Beach...

Glad I'm not the only one!

I do love Wall-E but I'm actually hoping for Ratatouille. I know the chances are slim, it's definitely not Pixar's most popular movie. Why that one? My costume for Oct for the MNSSHP - Colette.

I sense a big disappointment here Ariana... :guilty:

What date ??? another DisMeet there Sun Oct 6 MNSSHP How cute is that going to be... Colette great pick that movie I could watch 100 times...probably did D' -Didn't you already do a Ratatouille bag though ? I could swear I saw Remy ?

Yes, I did do one already...

It's either going to be 10/14 if we go the week of Oct 12th or 10/24 if we go the week of Oct 19th. Ratatouille is DHs favorite Disney movie so he picked the costumes. He will be Alfredo and will be carrying a stuffed Remy. Of course the movie is slowly becoming one of my favorites because we watch it a lot! Oh and D~ did make a Ratatouille bag, it was very cute.

Thanks! That sounds like an amazing Halloween costume idea!


Yup - there it is... Thanks for posting Mo!

Oh too bad not the same date Ariana BUT can NOT wait to see the pictures ! Wow and Mo' thanks for the link for D's Remy bag LOVED seeing it again

Thanks!

Your auction reveals are driving me CRAZY!!! So many brilliant and gorgeous bags...and I have to wait just a few more days to see what your custom from last week looks like!!!

Thanks Oopsi! Just a few more days...

I'm thrilled you are posting your auction things here, you know I don't do FB so its nice to see more of your talent

I will be posting more detailed pictures of the items next week - so I can update my table of contents page. :thumbsup2

Here is a picture of Sam that DH took yesterday, sorry if you already saw it but I know someone asked for pictures.


ACK!!! She is just so precious and cuddly...

Oh Chiara thank you she's beautiful

I agree!

Chiara - Sam is so cute. She looks like a real sweetheart.

Thanks Liz... I am getting really anxious to get started on our trip stuff... I should be able to do the first items tomorrow afternoon! :woohoo: I hope to have a nice dent in my first bag by the weekend!

Thanks about the lanyards - I really debated if I should use the exterior fabric or the interior - this time around, I decided to go with the interior, and I am glad I did - it worked out well.

Well someone has probably already explained but yes they are both fruits but 2 totally different fruits. You can compare different kinds of apples easier than you can compare apples and oranges...

Edit:D did a much better job explaining than I did.

Love the bags and gac,s d! They are just amazing monsters inc one is my fave.

Thanks Erin!

Chaira, Sam is beautiful! And she looks so alert. Thanks for sharing.

LOL @ Dan... :hug: Well - you are all welcome to come and watch me sew when ever you make it this direction - and then you will see... I just sew. :thumbsup2 Maybe it's all of you that are great? Maybe you are all just seeing things? ::yes:: LOL But tell Dan thanks!

More amazing bags!!! Love how Woody is looking through Buzz!! Also love how it looks like waves at the top of the Crush bag!! May have found another favorite!!

Thanks Sandra!!!

**********************************************************

Yesterday was super crazy... The next 2 weeks will be this way... Since V has Show Choir camp for the next 2 weeks, I have to drive to town every afternoon to pick her up - which really puts a damper on my sewing time. Thankfully we were able to ride share with another girl who lives out this way, so I only have to make one trip vs. two.

Despite the interruption in the middle of my day, I was able to cut out my next custom order and get it quilted. I also took the time at the end of the day to start a couple of camera straps.

This morning - I plan to finish the camera straps right away, so I can get the pictures posted and the auctions written. Then.... PHEW - I am DONE. Not a moment too soon - I was about to rip all of my hair out. I sometimes hate it when I have lofty ideas... :eek:

Then I will begin the applique for my custom order... I hope to make a dent in it today.

Out of the entire process of bag making - I have come to the conclusion that the applique process is my favorite part. :dance3:

Tomorrow afternoon, I will be closing my fanpage so I can take the time to upload and get everything ready for Thursday.... I still haven't figured out how I am going to get everything going - since I have to work. :confused3 I will probably have to open my page before I leave, and then begin the auctions later? I guess that will give everyone time to look around before it all starts.

**********************************************************

I am really starting to get nervous about our trip... It's closing in on me much quicker than I anticipated and I don't feel like I have enough time to get anything done... I know I've been worried about this for a while now -but it's really a genuine concern for me.

Could you imagine the utter craziness if the girls and I went do WDW with out bags? Seriously... :eek: So - I am just really looking forward to making a dent in some of this stuff!

Then - we have the online check in dillema... Do I? Don't I? I currently have a building request on my reservation (I hope) for building 6... I would LOVE our last room location or near it, because it was just wonderful! So, if I go on and do the online registration - then that may change our room location completely. Then we have the issue of the new magic bands and how all that works... I am just really hoping that it will all be a non-issue for our trip and nothing will be in place yet. As we were the first ones last year to be restricted by the Fast Pass time enforcement, so I am not sure we would be too happy with having to make ADRs for our rides too... There are only so many things I really want to plan. I also hope that with the Fast Pass + or whatever it's called that you are able to do a combo of ADRs and the original fast pass... :confused3 I just hope it's as great as Disney claims it will be - because we definatly get more than 3 fast passes per day, and that would be horrible to have to pick and choose which ones to get. :headache:

Finally - I will leave you with another 2003 photo... This was our first and only time ever riding the carousel... You have to squint a little to see little V in the background... (there is no water bottle to see here... move along...)

IMG12-1.jpg

Have a fantastic day everyone and prayers go out to all in need...

BTW... Has anyone seen our 3rd Ruth? I haven't seen her in ages, I hope everything is OK with her.

D~
 
Even if you do online check in you can request they change your room if you don't like the location :)
 
Today's first reveal... I just LOVE how this one turned out! Who doesn't LOVE Scrump? Seriously - your heart just breaks for the poor thing...

Yup - there it is... Thanks for posting Mo!

Someone need to stay on top of YOUR report.. Slacker... :sad2:

ACK!!! She is just so precious and cuddly...

HOW did I miss the Picture?!?!? Thank you fo posting Sammy(ie) She is so precious! Congrats!!!!

I also took the time at the end of the day to start a couple of camera straps.

:cheer2:

This morning - I plan to finish the camera straps right away, so I can get the pictures posted and the auctions written. Then.... PHEW - I am DONE. Not a moment too soon - I was about to rip all of my hair out. I sometimes hate it when I have lofty ideas... :eek:

:cheer2::yay::banana:

I LOVE YOUR IDEAS!!!!!!!!!! ugh i am going to go broke this week...

I guess that will give everyone time to look around before it all starts.

Yep Im going to go broke.
There goes my trip for 2014... Why? I have to have 20 new bags...

Then we have the issue of the new magic bands and how all that works...

I am SO glad i can read pther people's reports so when i DO go i MAY have a clue in how this all works.

There are only so many things I really want to plan. I also hope that with the Fast Pass + or whatever it's called that you are able to do a combo of ADRs and the original fast pass... :confused3 I just hope it's as great as Disney claims it will be - because we definatly get more than 3 fast passes per day, and that would be horrible to have to pick and choose which ones to get. :headache:

:faint:

I agree i am SO confused in how this all works.. so lost...

Finally - I will leave you with another 2003 photo... This was our first and only time ever riding the carousel... You have to squint a little to see little V in the background... (there is no water bottle to see here... move along...)

This is good to know. I have never done on-line check in. For my brother's first trip I think it worked out well not doing it. We were upgraded to a preferred room at ASSports (I think because it was noted as their first trip in the reservation so it was probably set before we got there). But the kids were given a VERY warm Disney welcome. At check in my brother requested a roll away bed which they comped. I'm always afraid to do on-line check in because I fear the line will be really long. We've never had to wait more then a few minutes to check in so I don't mind waiting in the regular line. But I always debate with myself.

Today's first reveal... I just LOVE how this one turned out! Who doesn't LOVE Scrump? Seriously - your heart just breaks for the poor thing...

Scrump came out perfect. I just went back and looked at all your bags again and the details are amazing, as usual. I can see why the appliques are your favorite part, your creativity really shows but you are so good at adding the little details that make your bags so unique and fabulous.

I think opening your fan page before you leave for work might be the best option. I have no idea how that works thou :confused:

The picture of you and the girls on the carousel is adorable. The perfect Disney memory, but you have only gone on one time? I make my kids ride it every year even if they balk. Ummm, what water bottle are you talking about? I do not see any water bottles.
 
First of all, please no worries about disappointing me! Your bags are gorgeous and I love every one you make. ::yes:: When I wrote the post about Ratatouille, I was 99.999999% sure that I knew what the last two bags were going to be. I've gotten one right, I guess I'll find out sometime today if I was right about the other.

The GAC with Scump is really cute! Funny thing though when I read the title I thought it said Scamp and was really confused for a minute because I was expecting a dog on it! Guess I haven't had enough caffeine yet this morning. :rotfl:

As for online check in, I've done it the last two trips. On my trip with Mom, we did not get our room request but that was because Pop Warner was checking in towards the end of the week and my request was the same building they were going to be staying in. But I asked nicely if the CM could get us in a different building close to the one I wanted and he was able to do that. It just took a few extra minutes. On my solo trip, I got the section I requested. I think the biggest advantage of online check in is that they know approximately what time you are going to get there. I believe this gives you a greater chance of having a room ready for you. Maybe you could do the online check in and then call and make sure your room request is still on the reservation?

Oh and I don't think I've commented on the retro pictures lately but I have really been enjoying them. Seeing them has given me an idea for my October PTR. I'm not going to start that one till I have concrete dates and know for sure that I can get off of work.
