A Book For My Niece

The title says it all! This was a gift for my niece’s first birthday. I knew I wanted to make a book for her, and she was at the stage where she looooved to put things in her mouth. Thus the first page.

It goes on to say:

The entire thing was written and made by me. Now she has something else ot chew on!

Happy Friday, Everyone!

Gildr (Magic Card)

This is one of my favorite types of orders: the obscure type. A little while ago, I got an order from someone that I made a sylveon for. His showed me his favorite magic card as a kid, and asked me if I could make it for him. This was the card:

Of course, me and my big ego responded “I can make anything.” (Sometimes I really dig myself into a hole doing that. Please don’t ask for examples.)

So this is what I came up with!

I was especially proud of the idea to put a tealight into his basket, so it really lights up!

I was also pleased when I gave it to him and he loved it.

Happy Friday, Everyone!

Sylveon!

So the store I work at is going through a remodel. One of the people doing the construction was a tough-looking strong guy that listened to a lot of death metal and had some pokemon tattoos. He came through my line a lot, so one day I asked what his favorite pokemon was. Want to know what this burly, sausagefest of a man said his favorite pokemon was?

Sylveon.

Like, the pink, cute, fairy type.

I know it isn’t very 2019 of me to get such a kick out of this obvious breach in gender types, but I did. But it’s ok, because I got such a kick out of it that I offered to make him one for free! So really, he profits. Anyway, here it is!

I’ve made a few of the other eeveeloutions, so it was really a pleasure to make this one, even though those ribbon color changes were a pain. 

So now the only ones I haven’t made are Glaceon and Leafeon!

Happy Friday, Everyone!

Ballerina

This one was an order placed by an expectant mom who wanted a little ballerina for her baby. It was a nice order to get, because I was just crocheting in the shop when she showed me a picture and asked “Hey, can you make this?” And I said yes!

I really liked the long-arm long-leg style of amigurumi dolls, and I think it’s definitely something I’ll be coming back to again.

Happy Friday, Everyone!

Giant Elephant!

One of my favorite customers placed another order!

I was super pleased with how this one came out; I don’t often make things for myself, but I fell in love with this elephant. I might make one for my own kids someday when I have them!

Also, tea time!

Happy Friday, Everyone!

Wooloo!

So the new pokemon games recently(ish) showed off some pictures of the next generation of pokemon! Among them, I think the most popular is this little sheep pokemon, Wooloo!

This was one I didn’t have any orders for, but I couldn’t resist. The super puffy stitch was difficult to pull off (and it killed my hands!) but I think it came out super cute.

Happy Friday, Everyone!

Puppy Dog Pals

Another one that was impossible to make without the theme running through my head!

I got an order for just one of the puppies, but decided to make them both so I could write a pattern for them (and have them for a picture.)

But then I got another order for the other one, so it all worked out!

You can check out the pattern here. 
Happy Friday, Everyone!

Christmas in July!

I’ve been waiting since January to make this post! After Christmas, I had so many Christmas-themed things that I could finally post on media without spoiling gifts…. but they were now out-of-date. So I decided to wait until July and do a Christmas in July post!

First off, here’s one of my favorite dolls that I’ve ever made!

I don’t make a lot of things for myself. I’m more into giving and sharing, but I have to say that I love this little decoration! Especially her style in clothes.

Speaking of which…

My nieces get a sweater every Christmas, and this was this year’s! I’m wondering if I’m getting myself in over my head with this tradition, but tradition is tradition. And look how happy they look!

Speaking of happy:

Ugly sweaters in general are just my thing. This cozy was a gift, but this year I might make one for myself. It almost hurt to give away.

Merry Christmas, Everyone!
