January 15, 2012. Work-in-progress pt. 2:
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?
April 2011: These are a couple of work-in-progress photos of two customized amigurumi bunnies I was making for a former high school teacher of mine. She wanted twin Easter bunnies with long legs and arms, but I thought I’d play around with the idea of limbless bunnies before I finished crocheting them. :P
From my December 2011 perspective: If I made these bunnies again, I’d definitely try this design (limbless, with ears leaning toward one side). It might have trouble standing, but at least it would be really cute. :)
April 2011: This amigurumi baby bear may only be 6” tall, but he is jam-packed with love! I worked on him for hours and hours, making and remaking his limbs to fit the cute design in my head. :)
From my December 2011 perspective: I used felt and buttons for eyes when I was learning how to crochet animals because I had not yet heard about the magic of SAFETY EYES! Once I learned of those, I never went back to felt and buttons again (unless I chose to do so intentionally for a design). Safety eyes changed my life. Hahaha. :P
MY 2010 CREATIONS!
Pokeball! I made this as part of a Christmas present for my little cousin. :P
Birthday Cake! Mailed this sweet amigurumi to a friend in Palo Alto. :)
Chef Raton. I wish I took a picture of Chef Raton and his twin brother, but I forgot. These two guys are being loved by my manager’s two sons. He said that they sleep with these amigurumis every night!! That makes me so happy. <3
Little Raffie, the first.
Baby Yoda, Chef Raton, and Baby Giraffe (made for my managers/mentors as a thank you gift for the three years they’ve supported me in college.)
LOL Peelable Banana. (+sunglasses and mustache)
Double Happiness Wood Project! This was my first wood project made using a jigsaw power tool, sander, and paint. After all that hard work, this piece was featured at a Chinese wedding!! :D
