~Aug 2013~ Sew what~We've gotta find a way back-Part II- TR link posted - 8/31

Hmmm....I think I like the theme of your sneak pictures, I know it will be cute!

I'm good, I went back to work yesterday to start setting up my classroom, only to find out I had to move rooms....again, for the third time in a year :scared1: But it's moved and mostly set up! I'm beat! :faint: But it's going to be a good year!

Looking forward to seeing your next bag!

What a pain. When is your first day? My kids start next Thursday but we have open house on Monday and Tuesday. I am not looking forward to the early mornings.

D~ your sneak peek has me excited. Wish I could type a yodeling noise. :-)

Our first "official" day is Wed, August 7th! Our kids start Aug. 12th. The next county over teachers go back TOMORROW!!!! The kids start Aug. 6th.

We have always been told to have our rooms together before our first day! :confused3
 

V's bag is SUPER SUPER SPECTACULAR!!! I absolutely love it! I love the way Sully is crammed into the car and the words and Roz under the flap are so cute too. I bet V is excited to carry this in the parks...I know I would be!

Looking forward to seeing your bag next...you're such a tease with those pics! :stir:
 
Oh no - I hate it when I do that! We love Roz too!

I ended up going to bed around 1 am and then woke up every couple of hours until the kids got up at 8 am. So not a good night. I ended up not napping today because I want to be able to sleep tonight!!

If you love Roz then you really need to make a trip to California and ride the Monster's Inc ride at DCA. She interacts with the guests and will ask you different questions. The kids always get a kick out of it when she talks to them.
 
Whew, I'm finally caught up! I had a wonderful trip to visit Mom but then ended up coming back to a piled up desk at work. I kept trying to catch up but ended up 25 pages behind! I kind of cheated and just read the daily updates, skipping over most of the comments.

I can't believe your trip is so close! I'm getting excited for you guys.

I think you made at least 5 or 6 bags while I was gone. Of course I loved the Mickey and Pluto one. ::yes:: And both of the girls bags are beautiful.

So funny story for you. I always send pictures of your bags to my Mom. She's not on Facebook much and would never be able to figure out the DIS so I e-mail them to her so she can see. She is strange in her love for Disney, she loves WDW but rarely sees Disney movies so she doesn't always know the characters. When I sent her pictures of the Ursula bag, she e-mailed me back and asked me why you made a bag with Phyllis Diller on it. :rotfl:

I'm hoping to finalize my October trip this week as free dining rumors are flying around right now. If FD is offered, I will be able to upgrade us from POP to POR!

Rofl... Age telling . Most "young" adults wouldn't know Phyllis Diller. Too funny!
 
I'm a few days behind but I have to say that I love the Mickey messenger bag. I can't believe you quilted that whole bag. Wow!! I love Mickey. Such a perfect Disney bag.

Thanks! I love the quilted messenger - it looks so nice and clean when it is done. The only thing I don't like about it being quilted is that it's a little more "floppy" than I like my bags to be - not bad, but a little.

Victoria's bag is awesome. I love Sully all packed in there And Roz, is the perfect touch. My mom was making fun of me because I was laughing so loud in Monster's University. The outline of the letters really makes it pop, I'm glad you did not re-do the fabric piece but I assume that took a VERY long time. It looks great.

Thanks Liz!!! I know, I kn ow, we need to go see that movie soon.

Yeah for getting so much accomplished lately. You do really need a bag to carry around when you are not at Disney (make sure it is filled with business cards)

Hahaha!

Love the flashback and the wedding pictures. How fun that your friends got married (and Lois's too)

Yah - it's pretty cool! We love them!

On your advice I bought some more pins for our upcoming trip. I'm going to keep them out of sight until our trip and just pull the out as needed. Of course I know Casey will want to keep all the "cute ones".

Yay for more pins... We do the same thing. LOL


I can't wait to see the finished bag. It is going to rock.


I seriously need to figure Js clothing situation for our trip. I think he has grown so much he needs more new things.

I know - I am super excited about it!!!

LOL - Poor J, it always seems like he goes through a growth spurt right before your trips. :rotfl:

AWESOME! Did the car seat have that umbilical thing coming out of it too?!?!

You are all so stinking adorable.. your girls SURE look like you d~!!!
i cannot believe your trip is almost here.. Feels like you and Suzi have been waiting FOREVER for this to get here!

LOL - Thanks Mo... Alli was telling me last night how cute I am... Then a short time later, she was telling me about these shoes she wanted... Is there a connection there? :confused3

Hi Ariana!!! I have missed you! Hey now... I don't require that people read my PTR... I am just happy you signed on to say hello. :lovestruc

I can't believe your trip is so close! I'm getting excited for you guys.

Thanks! I am a total disaster!

I think you made at least 5 or 6 bags while I was gone. Of course I loved the Mickey and Pluto one. And both of the girls bags are beautiful.

Thank you! I was thinking of you and Ruthie the entire time I was making that one. :lovestruc

Hahaha... I love your mom - she cracks me up!

Yay!!! I hope you get FD... I love FD! LOL

Great pictures at Epcot/Test Track. I really wish they had left TT alone...not happy about the new version at all.

I have heard that too... We are planning to try it out - but I have a feeling we will feel the same way... The only ride left at Epcot that we love is Soarin'... The girls like MS, but not I.

Love the MI bag. The only problem I would have with it....I would be walking around constantly flipping the flap up so everyone could see Roz

Hahaha... OMG - I could totally see you doing that too!

Now after that, you better be showing us the rest later. You are such a tease.

I've only been told that a few times this week... :rolleyes1

I had not even noticed it until you mentioned it, so I had to go back and look again... That is EXACTLY what it looks like!!!!!!!!!

YES! Roz is our fave MI character, and was my favorite part of the bag! Our whole family loves to randomly quote the "I'm watching you, Wazowski" line and were so excited they threw her in the MU movie!!!!

I am thinking your new bag is Jessie!!!

I love Roz too!!! She is so funny! You might be close on your guess for my bag...


Oooh. I love the tease. The bag looks cute and we love Toy Story.

I am super excited about it!

Hmmm....I think I like the theme of your sneak pictures, I know it will be cute!

I'm good, I went back to work yesterday to start setting up my classroom, only to find out I had to move rooms....again, for the third time in a year But it's moved and mostly set up! I'm beat! But it's going to be a good year!

Yay Jennifer - I am so happy you are all set up and ready to go for the year - it's hard to believe that summer is almost over.

What a pain. When is your first day? My kids start next Thursday but we have open house on Monday and Tuesday. I am not looking forward to the early mornings.

D~ your sneak peek has me excited. Wish I could type a yodeling noise

LOL - I love ya Liz!

Hmmm... just a guess...but maybe Jessie?


Nini

Maybe... :confused3

I hope you were able to sleep last night.

That sounds like fun - some day we will make it there.

Rofl... Age telling . Most "young" adults wouldn't know Phyllis Diller. Too funny!

I do... Barely... I never liked her much though.

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

Are you all ready for the most boring update ever???

Are you sure????

OK - here it is....

Yesterday....

I sewed.

That's all.

Nothing else.

Just sewed.

From sun up.

To sun down.

And afte dark.

But do you know what I did with all that sewing?

I finished my bag!

Yes, you heard me right...

I finished my bag!

And I love it!!

And it's magnificant!!

And now I know what it's like when everyone else gets one of my bags!!!

And I can't wait to show you all!!

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

Have a wonderful day everyone - and I will be back later with some photos of my bag!!! I am so excited for you all to see!

D~
 
GOOD MORNING!

YAY for the bag being done!!!! it is the greatest feeling ever to finally get the ever popular Serendipi D~ pixi dust!!!
Your art is amazing! :thumbsup2

I just love your hat by the way!!! MUCH better then the i spy water bottle fanny pack... :sad2:
 
Yay!!! I am so happy to have this bag done! It turned out wonderful - IMHO... This is the bag I really wanted to have for our last trip - but time just didn't allow it... I told myself, last year, that if we are to go again, it will be the first bag I make for myself.

I just love the whole "cowboy" theme of Toy Story... and I love all of the fabrics associated with it - there is just so much you can do with them.

Anyways... Here's my bag...

Love it! Jessie is my oldest dd's favorite character. She will want me to make her one like it!

Can't wait to see what your 2nd bag looks like!
 
:love: Love, love, love the Jessie and Bullseye bag! You will have so much fun carrying it at WDW. I couldn't tell you the number of wonderful comments I got about my Pluto bags.

Looks like FD will be out tomorrow! I will be on the phone bright and early with Disney. From what I've been reading it seems like there may be only Royal Rooms left at POR. I'm probably going to go for it since that is where DH requested we stay and it will still cost less that what I was going to pay at POP without FD. Do you think he'll notice all of the princess stuff in the room? :confused3 :rotfl:
 
Love the Jesse bag! I'm so glad you got it finished and can move on to the next project. You have waited so long for this cute little bag, now you won't have to wait much longer to put it in use. And I guarantee it will get lots of attention...as will ALL the bags you girls will be carrying. Adding the new head gear it will be Epic!!
 
I love you trip bag. The Toy Story movies are among my favorites. My day was bring, too. We're getting ready for our semi annual inseption from Fugi, so I cleaned all day. I wish my house looked as good as the photo lab does, now. Today I get to take my mom grocery shopping.

:love: Your Jessie and Bullseye bag!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously cute!

Yes, you should be able to get napoleons to go. I always get a schoolbread to go so that I can eat is for breakfast the next morning with a hot cup of coffee. :cloud9:

Good to know! :thumbsup2 :thumbsup2 :thumbsup2
 
Ok. You know I love the bag. But I want to tell you how much I love those pictures of you guys eating the napoleons. I don't know why...I don't even like those darn things very much, but that picture of the 3 of you.....it just made this whole thing real to me! I can't wait...this trip is going to be great! It really is the little things I love about Disney.
*sigh* is it time to go yet??
 
Love, love, love the bag. It is impossible to have a favorite. Each time you show one, I think, "Now that is my favorite." Then you do another one and I change my mind. Jessie is Marissa's most favorite character. We still have the Jessie doll. I am already on her worst mother of the year list due to the lack of sewing skills. If I show her the Jessie one, I am not sure what she would do. Although, there isn't much room to go after worst. ;)
 
WOW AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! I love them, I agree, each one you do I love a little more than the last..........till I go back and look at them :lmao::lmao::lmao::lmao:

No way I'd ever be able to pick a favorite!
