Picture Updates!

Hi all! Looking through my store, I noticed some of my pictures weren't up to par, so I decided to have a photo shoot! I re-took pictures of my anime pocket head girls, and got a good photo of pirate bear. :) My mom got this photo studio thingy for her birthday,I tried it out with her. It's pretty much a big cube, with ultra blindingly bright lights that shine inside. The pics of my plushies in it looked pretty good!

Pirate bear looking absolutely fabulous!

New pic of sunny side up....

Compared to old. It looks dark doesn't it?

New island girl

 old island girl.

 New under the sea

 and old.

I also made a new capsule pet ! His name is Vincent the bat baby! I love bats, they are one of my favorite animals! I can't stop myself from wanting to make lots and lots of them!!

cozy in his capsule home.

His wings and ears are felt, I needle felted them on. I also chained across his tummy, and let a tiny bit of fringe hang off for feet . :)

I've come up with a way to revolutionize the way I make capsule pets!! But more on that another time. ;)

For now, a moment of silence for the little mermaid Veera, who was recently sold and shipped off to her new home by the beach! (no joke!) Bye-Bye Veera! I'll miss you!




                                                   For now, I bid you all sayonara!

Custom Amigurumi + Pattern Trade Results

Ok, after the huge fuss I put up in my last post, I FOUND MY FLASHDRIVE!!! So I'm pretty happy about that! So Here are some pics of the Just Plush Team Pattern trade. This is a design by Stephanie of the Etsy shop cvonslittleangel . She designed the head, body legs,and tail, and I added the ears, muzzle and facial detail. He is a little puppy :)

A wip pic :)

I gave him a little bag, and I teeny tiny owl friend. This is also the first time I've ever made crocheted (as opposed to embroidered) eyelids on an amigurumi. I slip stitched into the puppy dog's face, over the eyes, and then worked into my slip stitches with single crochets. Also, instead of safety eyes, I used large black buttons. I think they look nice. :)

Here are the pics of Veera's tail that I lost. You can see, using this new technique, She can actually Sit down!!

I was asked to make some custom amigurumi toys the other day! One custom Girl Mini Bat, and A custom made Toki Mini Capsule Pet.This customer also wants to buy the original Toki, So I will be saying goodbye to her soon. Here is the custom mini bat:

 And here is the custom Toki Capsule pet. (I have yet to receive conformation on this little one yet, so think of it as a first draft in, case I have to make any changes.)

And here they are together!

 Here is a girl bearling, pixie! I have to make her a best friend before she gets put into the store, however.

About a year ago, I was given a large stack (by large I mean about one-hundred) of old crafting magazines, by a very kind woman(she also gave me three or four garbage bags full of yarn!!) Amongst those magazines I found this. I believe it is a 1986 Annie's Crochet Newsletter.

In that newsletter I found this pattern, for teeny tiny pixie people! I'll admit, their eyes weird me out a bit, but I think with a few alterations, these could be super adorable, mini capsule people!!

I have so many ideas! I can't wait to get to work!!

Sweet Battie

Here is a pic of Katie's (contest winner) sweet sweet battie! Isn't it adorable!! I'm so glad other people are able to enjoy my patterns! :D

 

 I'm thinking of making a pirate bear pattern......So I've been brainstorming ideas!

Ideas from the random depths of my brain.

Hopefully this little guy(and maybe his minions) will be available in pattern form soon!

Congrats!

Congrats to Katie for winning the baby bat pattern! I should get back to regular posting again so stay tuned! happy new year everyone! :D

Don't you want a friend that's a little....batty..?

It's been a year!!?

I was scanning through my old posts(wow my pictures have gotten better ) and I realized I've been in the blogging world for an entire year!! Yes my blogging has been few and far between in the past, but as the new year approaches I have been posting more and more! Just wanted to say thanks to my readers! 

On to my projects....Still haven't gotten around to making that pirate bear....But I did make a pirate goblin! Does that count..?

I like my goblins :) I think they're cute! Maybe This little guy will get a crew soon.....

 

 

 

 

I made a black mini bat too! I've been making an awful lot of mini things lately.....But small things are quick, easy, and cute! I love little Batty...He's in my Etsy. I didn't write down the pattern (again...) But I'm sure I could make him a second time! (and that time I would write it down!!)

Oh! good news! My dad is going to give me a program I can use to make my patterns! I think I might actually be able to make some to sell(and give away!) I said I would probably make Carter the fox first, but I might start with something smaller....like a little bat.....

I made his ears with this ultra soft fuzzy yarn...

 Here is an anime looking koala I made the other day.....I have yet to post it.....

 This was actually a cat, if you can believe that however, it didn't really work out the way I wanted.

You know, I don't think I've ever made a koala before! I guess this is a first :)

she is realllllly soft XD
