Should I make little owlets in other colors?  Which colors would you like to see?

Who’s excited for my Baby Unicorn crochet pattern??? 

Here’s a sneak peek of the materials you’ll need to make Hugo the Unicorn (a.k.a. another excuse for you to go shopping for new yarn!).  My pattern will be ready to publish sometime this month (October), so stick around! :D

For those of who who are just joining us on A Morning Cup of Jo Creations, this unicorn was introduced as one of my designs over a year ago… and now I’m finally turning him into an amigurumi pattern so that he can come to life in your very own home! :) Check out my Facebook to stay updated.

Meet Charlie the Baby Panda. He is our unofficial groundskeeper here at Jo’s Home, and we’re mighty appreciative! Charlie has a gentle touch and loving nature. Sometimes you can even catch him singing to his pretty peonies or telling bedtime stories to his lotus flowers.

A while ago, Charlie tried to teach me how to garden, but his efforts were futile — there was no chance of saving plants under my care. The peonies began to wilt in fear as I approached, and the lotus flowers would close up quickly and submerge themselves under water! One day, just when I started to think that all plants hated me, Charlie surprised me with a gift! He and his purple panda friend, Suzie, crocheted a lucky bamboo plant for me!!! He told me that it will never require any watering, pruning, or fertilizing. That’s my kind of plant! Haha :) I can’t decide if the pandas crocheted this plant for me because they love me… or because they didn’t want me killing any more of their flowers. In any case, I love the gift, and it now sits proudly on my window sill!

Find my new crochet patterns on Craftsy, and come win FREE tiny pandas on Facebook!  See you there!

Here’s a closeup of my piggy’s accessories! Everything is handmade except for the silver cookie cutters. I did an okay job for my first time working with polymer clay, right? :P

The bowl, rolling pin, spoon, and measuring cup are made out of clay. After baking, I painted them with sealant and then with layers of acrylic paint. A nice coat of clear nail polish makes them all shiny and sleek! :) I had lots of fun, and I’m now back to working on my amigurumi panda pattern! See you soon.

It looks like Z-Stanley and Nibblez have new friends (omg zombie animals are taking over)! They must have bitten them before I could even finish painting my tiny pandas. D: 

WE MUST EVACUATE!!! Who will provide a safe house for these pandas?! 

Giveaways start tomorrow morning on Facebook (Sunday, July 8). :)

What do you think of this little baker?

Do I have any zombie fans out there???

These were soooo much fun to paint! :D I plan to start the panda giveaways this weekend, so come visit A Morning Cup of Jo Creations for some fun activities!

Also, what should we name our unlucky panda friend?

June 27, 2012.

This is just a quick snapshot of the new Baby Panda (top photo) I’ve been working on as a custom order. :) His ears are more sturdy/thick now (so they won’t fold down and hug his head!), and the proportions are a little different than Mumbles (bottom photo). He’s just shy of 4” tall! ^__^
