Thank you all so much for the tips & suggestions! My name is Kyla & DH is Dennis. I would love to do the FE, can you send me the link of instructions to make one? I'm not very crafty but maybe I can have a go at it!
Def going to check out tips for Nassau, was thinking of staying on the boat but need to say I've been there! And very good point about the bracelets, I get sick on everything that moves so I'll add that to my packing list!
Howdy Kyla,
You will need to post your room number for the FE if you have it. If not please post it as soon as you get it.
Keith is the keeper of the list.

NO SEW FE
Supplies:
2 yards of fabric (two colors one yard each)
Double fold bias tape
Dowell Rod
Iron-On Patches
1 Package of Iron-On Interfacing
1 Package of Heat-n-Bond No Sew Ultra Hold 7/8 in. hem
1 Package of Heat-n-Bond No Sew 1 Yard
Various Colors of Ribbon
1. Cut fabric to be used as the body of the FE to be 8 in. wide by 58 in. in length. When folded the FE will be 29 in. in length.
2. Cut fabric for the three pockets, cut each pocket 11 in. wide by 12 in. in length. When folded each pocked will be 6 in. in length.
3. On the inside of the FE body piece and each pocket iron on the interfacing. Once cooled completely I ironed on the sheet of Heat-n-Bond cut 8 in. by 29 in. to the inside of the body of the FE.
4. On each of the 3 folded pockets I made pleats so that the pockets were 2 in.-pleat-4 in.-pleat 2 in. To secure the pleats I used the Heat-n-Bond Ultrahold hem. This was done on the cut side so that the top edge would be folded and clean.
5. Next I used the heat-n-bond hem to add 8 in. strips of the double fold bias tape to the bottom of each pocket.
6. Next I lined up the pockets on the body of the FE starting 8 in. from the top and then about 1 in. apart. I market the spots with a pencil and secured the bottom and sides of the pockets using the heat-n-bond hem.
7. Once all cooled. I used the double fold bias tape for the perimeter of the body of the FE which again was secured using the iron on hem.
8. Once cooled I ironed on the patches to each of the pockets.
9. I then folded down the top of the FE about 2 inches and secured to the back of the FE by the iron-on hem creating a little opening to insert the dowel rod.
10. Using the multicolored ribbon I made it long enough so that the FE would hang approximately 7-8 in. from a hanger.
11. For our names I bough iron-on computer paper and printed the names on the computer. Then I cut and surrounded the paper with double fold bias tape attached using the iron-on hem. Finally I ironed on the name piece.
I this doesnt work for you just go to the card department of the store. Most have Disney themed shopping bags. Get a small one and hang it up by your door instead of a regular FE. Many who didnt have time to make one have done that, or get a white shopping bag and decorate it with themed stickers or photos.
If you want apicture of a FE let me know and I will post one for you. Sometimes it helps to see a finished product.
