| Banana or Cylinder |
[Jul. 15th, 2009|03:05 pm] |
So I've been experimenting... I'm not sure which one is better (in terms of shape, not looks)banana bag or cylinder bag ...maybe both??...btw, just as a heads up, the quality of the image for the banana bag sucks. Flash ruins a lot of things for me... *SIGH* v___v ( ....I don't like you flash! No I don't!! No no no.... :( )
...fyi, this is a fake cut to my lj. I figured if I'm posting to multiple communities, it's easier to link everything to one post. ^--^

| Goomba! |
[Jul. 15th, 2009|10:26 am] |
My boyfriend's cousin has a birthday coming up, so I decided to make his present because we never know what to give him.

And before it was a Goomba, it was a cute little hat for my sleepy Chester.

| Elfie Girl |
[Jul. 13th, 2009|06:19 pm] |
I'm not sure why I got into making Elves but I had to make another this time a little girl. I made her using my Elfie Babies pattern found here http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=27375249 Her hair is made with some yarn I've had in my stash forever I think it worked great for her hair.

| More FF7 sackboys |
[Jul. 11th, 2009|09:16 pm] |
Remember Sackiroth?
I've been making lots more of 'em since then. (It helps that, for example, now I actually know how to do a crochet stitch correctly. *headdesk!*) I haven't had time to turn the various photos I've taken into more "Adventures of Sackiroth" entries, but I've got a ton of photos with them with cosplayers from several cons (including an incredibly adorable picture of a chocobo cosplayer snuggling SackZack, and a Sackboy cosplayer with all of 'em) and I have to dig up the time to code that up one of these days. Probably not until my annual summer work-swampage is done with, though. But since this month's theme is characters, I figure I should at least post a couple of the group shots here...

( More photos )
( Oh yeah, one other thing... ) |

New Disney Movie is coming,"G-Force" the release date is July 24th....very cute!! Please consider all the little animals that will be purchased by the release of the movie and later become unwanted little pets, sad, but it happens.
Lady's get those hooks a moving, I have a Guinea pig pattern right here, can be made in any color and if you want the long hair version , just crochet with alpaca, then using a stiff brush, hand brush the item when finished. (Very Cute Technique!)


See the pattern here: www.chiwaluv.etsy.com

| Sackboy |
[Jul. 10th, 2009|01:13 pm] |

I am totally obsessed with making little Sackboys, from Little big Planet, I'm still not quite satisfied with sewing on the legs this way, so I'm going to make another and sew the legs on as I make the body.
Any hoooooo, suggestions welcome. |

| Panda bear! |
[Jul. 10th, 2009|12:58 pm] |
I got this pattern off of the Lion Brand website, and made it for a friend of mine who just found out that she's preggers! It's a congratulations gift, and she just loves pandas. :D I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out.

( Look out! He's coming to get you! )

Inspired by a friend's interpretation of my photo:

... I made this:


It could be much better made, with respects to the body and legs, but I really like the silly mouth. :) I wished that I had better copied it as it had been drawn though. :(
Edit: Changed the photos. :) |

I'm very sorry if this isn't allowed, but recently I had my Live Journal hacked. The horrible culprit did nothing directly to my journal, but posted several mean and hurtful comments in several community posts. I'm trying to track them all down and apologize directly to those hurt. I'm very sorry for this and intensely embarrassed. Please believe that I would never say such things. |

| My lovely lovely bear <3 |
[Jul. 9th, 2009|02:14 pm] |
:) Hello! I haven't posted anything in this community in a while! I've been inactive for several months... Anyway! It's a pink bear purse!...with bows, frills, and rose colored cheeks! I'm hoping to make a big batch of them and sell them on etsy. Being a poor college student, I'm hoping if these sell I'll have some extra cash so I can afford my own groceries instead of my parents helping out all the time :( T___T I'm so thankful for them... What do you guys think? <3 I'm very excited about how it turned out :) ( Can't go wrong with too much pink! ) |

| Finished a monkey |
[Jul. 8th, 2009|08:24 am] |

This monkey is from Amigurumi World. I did make one modification: I crocheted the face pieces as I find felt is prone to pilling after too many hugs. Monkey is shown with my handy-dandy stitch ripper for scale. The monkey is for my daughter's 9th birthday, and I will confess that not being able to work on it at home because she is on summer break made it a very long project for me. x-posted to my journal as well
