Burgundy and Mint

Hi all! I've been working my hiney off trying to get projects done(or at least that's what it feels like..) In the end I decided to take one color and make multiple projects out of it. I started with burgundy, and then I used mint green yarn. Here are the plushies I've made so far:

Lisa's Minako

Lisa ( Iesadora ) Won my Minako pattern a while back, and a few days ago she sent me pictures of her finished bunny! Here they are!!

                                                Isn't it just a cutie!!?? I love the bow-tie! >v<

                                                     Thanks for sharing your pics Lisa!! :D


                       I made some plushies too! Some cute lil teddies!  Classy Teddy and Lemon Pie teddy!

I made some more custom ninjas too, but I don't have pics of those(besides, ninjas are getting a little boring aren't they?)

                                                                  Until next time then!!

Hanging With The Horses

Hi all! I haven't posted in soooo looooong. Sorry! I've just gotten a bit off track! I have a different sort a post today! A few days ago, my cousin came over to my house to hang out. My cousin, Little brother, and I went walking down the little country road that leads to the gas-station(we were going to buy soda and snacks)When we came across a pasture with three horses in it. I've walked past that field a hundred times, but I never really stopped to look at the horses. They walked right up to the fence and stared at us. We were transfixed, they were so pretty! The friendliest was a dark brown horse with completely black eyes. It (I don't know if it was a he or she) ate right out of our hands.

                                                               I got lots of pictures!

                                                                     Isn't it pretty!? :)

              Their was also this lovely horsy, with the bright blue eyes! They were so pretty.

                                         Maybe it's blind??? I know nothing about horses XD

                             I also took pictures of my peeps posing on the cutest tiny bridge.

 My cousin ended up staying the night, and we had a great time drinking sonic shakes, making up stories, and playing games on my tablet! My cousin also watched Sweeney Todd for the first time, which was ultra fun! It was a great night! :)


Alrighty! Here are the little ninjas I made for my lil cousins b-days on the $th of July (Yeah, I haven't blogged in a while LOL) I've been commissioned by another little friend to make some ninjas, so I've got my hands full!

                                          I've also been drawing a lot lately ^_^ I've been busy!!

I drew this one for a contest!

 I hope to blog more soon. I've been working on some cute new plushies, and can't wait to show them off! :D                                                                        Until then!

                           

New Cattitude Kitty!

 I have a new cattitude kitty out (hence the title)! Her name is Naughty Little Child, and she has some CRAZY hair!!  I liked making her mouth, pretty much anything with really large, pointy, fangs is cool.

I tried twice, but I just couldn't sew her an outfit...so she ended up having a t-shirt needle felted into her (boy that's gotta hurt) and a heart applique added afterwards.

I also made this giant owl baby. I haven't really had much time for my normal projects, because I  worked like crazy getting birthday presents finished by the 4th(my lil twin cousin's b-day). I'll show you those in a different post. Speaking of the fourth, we didn't get to see fireworks this year, because of a burn ban. Luckily, yesterday we got some much needed rain. I still feel like I missed out though. :( How was YOUR Independence Day? Did you get to see fireworks?

Experimenting With Jointing

I love making dolls, but my biggest problem is that the legs are always really stiff, and I can't get the doll to sit down! Well, that problem is no more! I found a blog with a tutorial on how to thread joint legs, and it worked! You can find a link to that blog HERE. Another thing I wanted to try was jointing heads. I've used safety eyes to joint ami heads before, but that always seemed a little flimsy to me, and I had to make the hole in the neck really small. I found an easier way to do it! There is another helpful tutorial, HERE! Honestly I don't know what I would do without the internet....
Anyway! I made a doll with jointed legs and head! Her name is Sasha and I absolutely LOVE her!!

I'm getting better at styling doll hair too! I just used plain black yarn for Sasha's hair, hooking it into the scalp every two rows until I reached the crown, then hooking in long bangs, and cutting them to the desired length.

I made a few other toys with jointed necks as well, Beep the robot kitty, and Nicolo the bear.



Nicolo is sort of like Pirate Bears stalker (LOL) I figured since he was an angry looking bear he should join the crew of the Sunshiney (Pirate Bear's ship, if you don't remember) He's a stow-away!
I want to make a newer, cooler version of pirate bear, maybe I will change his color scheme to something more masculine....I could also make him a hat, now that I know how to do it!

 Beep is a robot kitty, I've had these buttons for quite a while, and they make perfect robot eyes! The Caron simply soft looked really shiny too, kind of like metal.

I also figured I should try and make something else with my abundance of felt, so I drew out a cheezy little 2D sewing pattern on some graph paper. I love the way plush food looks (so cute!!) so I drew an ice cream cone and a cupcake, and cut them out.

I wasn't entirely sure these were good enough, but I used the cupcake template, and cut out some felt. Here's what I made!

 I love him, and now I can make as many cupcakes as I want!! The ice cream should be next.


Oh yeah, I drew on the graph paper too...I have lots of sketchbooks, but I hate ruining the completely white pages by DRAWING on them(ironic I know)! Aaaaanyways, I keep saying I will post up more of my pictures, and I never do....So here is something I sketched onto said graph paper.

         This guy keeps popping up all over my sketch books...He's kinda creepy looking, but I like him.I haven't thought of his story yet though....

                          I'm starting to ramble, so I will take my leave. Until next time! *waves*
