Still moving my old posts from A Morning Cup of Jo to A Morning Cup of Jo Creations! Please excuse the currently jumbled timeline! You can think of it as having flashbacks… or time traveling! :P
June 12, 2011: This little guy was fun to make! After adding the black stripes, he definitely looked more like a tiger than a bear! (Some of you may remember how worried and unsatisfied I was during the work-in-progress post.) I’m loving the look of the stitching now that I’ve applied new techniques that I’ve learned. :) Also, switching to a smaller hook feels like it creates more work because it takes longer to build up to the same sized animal, but I think it’s worth it! The stitching is much tighter, which means that less stuffing shows through. Yay!
This tiger took about 9 hours to make (counting the time that it took to take apart and remake some body parts). If I make a tiger again, I’d like to change up his proportions a bit to enhance the cuteness factor.

After the initial shock of seeing the crocheted catastrophe, Millie and Mumbles decided to take action.
It looks like they borrowed my crochet hook and yarn to help fix Nibbles! How sweet of them. <3 That frees up my schedule to work on new amigurumi projects. :)
Will they be able to sew him up properly?
January 14, 2012. Work-in-progress pt. 1:
Starring: Z-Stanley (the zombie giraffe), Nibbles (blue panda), Millie (pink panda), and Mumbles (original panda).
Z-Stanley (the zombie giraffe) must have been very hungry while I was gone!! I knew I should have crocheted some brains to feed him before I left for work…
I came home to the sight of Z-Stanley munching on Nibbles! THE HORRORRRRRR!! D: I shooed him off and found some leftover brains to keep him occupied. Because I was busy feeding Z-Stanley, I forgot to tell Mumbles and Millie about the crocheted catastrophe and brace them for bad news… the poor things had to find out the hard way.
Can our friend Nibbles be saved?!

MASS UPLOADS!
I created this spin-off blog because I was getting tired of the “My Creations” page on my main Tumblr. The endless scrolling, lack of interactive capabilities (it wasn’t possible to like, reblog, or comment on anything), and lack of separation between posts was becoming a bit too much of a hassle! So here I am, uploading everything from that one page to this new Tumblr, “A Morning Cup of Jo Creations.” Yay for upgrading! Took me long enough. :P
