Memphis

I made this silhouette of Memphis for Dawn. Memphis likes the colors green, yellow and blue. She also likes squirrels, rabbits, deer, flowers, and trees. I hope I was able to incorporate a lot of the elements that she loves :)

If you haven't seen Dawn's work- it's absolutely awesome, check it out on her blog Plush-a-holic!!!

Maggie the Mushroom & Robin sitting on a ledge together

a new mushroom :)

so i was going to put this one in my shop, but i showed it to my little sister over our weekly webcam conversation and she fell in love with it, so... i can't say no :) plus, she hasn't gotten a mushroom of mine yet. and it matched the shirt she was wearing that day, so i think it was meant to be.

so hopefully, next time around...

Eloise the Elephant

I crocheted up this little elephant for my sister. She has been wanting one for quite some time now and finally I had the time to make it for her.

I ever so slightly modified the elephant pattern out of the "Amigurumi World: Seriously Cute Crochet" book by Ana Paula Rimoli. This was the first pattern I decided to crochet up out of her book and it was really easy to follow and a lot of fun!!!

I Love Etsy

Here are some things that I would own if I had the money to get them. I love all of them and there are more that I've left out. If I had a windfall of money, I'd get them ;-) For now, I will have to admire from afar. And have I said, I love Etsy?

Dandelion & Felix

Here's my counterpart for the swap I did with Nichol from Pillow Monsters. I had a ton of fun making this one for Nichol :)

Dandelion is a sweet little mushroom- she's 5 yrs old and her best friend is Felix the Frog. He likes to stair up at the sky and loves to hear the leaves rustling in the wind while lying down on Dandelions head. They both make each other feel safe :) Dandelion likes it when she sees people camping, especially when they make camp fires. She just loves the smell of smores! Who can blame her?! Together they are just about the cutest thing you'll ever see on the forest floor ;-)

Plush Swap with Nichol from Pillow Monsters

Annie was made for me by Nichol of Pillow Monsters. Isn't she wonderful?!

Her description says: "Annie is the youngest of a very large family. She never quite developed her voice because growing up her brothers and sisters always spoke for her. Anna's passions are banjo-playing, the kind of chocolate that is shaped like and flavored like oranges and drawing different bird species with really sharp colored pencils. Because Anna never really developed her own voice, her sense of hearing seemed to develop double-time. She knows all sorts of birds by their chirps. In order to study them, Anna dresses like a tree and stands completely still in the middle of the forest. The only ones she hasn't fooled into thinking she is actually a tree are the mosquitos, who often nibble on her nose. While standing very still, Anna does bird calls. It is the only time that her voice goes over a whisper. Then, the birds come very close and she looks at them and memorizes all of their colors so that she can record them in her sketchbook."
