Old Projects

Once upon a time when I used my sewing machine, I made these......

The first (and ugliest) doll I made. I call him Octopoddy. I really liked the flower detail on the top, but the eyes... they're scary... and so is the mouth. I didn't know what I was doing. Originally he was supposed to be a cupcake, but I failed because he like a looked retarded white blob sitting on an upside-down hat-looking cup. Nope, no cupcake there.

 Next up....

Peapoddies!! These were made for Janet as she requested. I did add some more finishing touches, but I'm too lazy to go into her room to take pictures. ;)

Next is...

... my little mini bunny! He came out to be about 2 or 3 inches tall. Isn't he the cutest?? He was upcycled from an old vest that I used to have and I just love how he turned out. This was made for my oldest sister, Pauline.

I also attempted to make a bigger version...

Somewhere along the line, I messed up big time (probably cause I thought I could wing the pattern like I did for the other three). Big mistake. The body was a complete flop and un-proportionate to its head. Then... I ran out of fleece.. so I just gave up. This bunny is still lying around in my room. This was supposed to be a bunny part two for my oldest sister,  but I never gave it to her since I never finished it.

After that flop, I moved on to crochet. My first project came out very well..

A little kitty!! AHHH! The cuteness!!! It's on par as it is with the mini bunny wouldn't you say? Don't you wanna keep it all for yourself? I do, but I've given all my kitties away :( I want an army in the near future though. They take some time to make though cause they're just so tiny! Well worth the effort though!

Next up...

My trio of ninjas! These were made for my boyfriend. Some came out better than others..  I mean I've made them before, back when I made the kitty. I wanted to make some variations to it to see how it would look. First, for the blue ninja, I used another type of yarn. He turned out just fine, except that I didn't realize I was showing the wrong side of the work. Whoops. I'm sure he would have looked better if I had known. Oh well! Second, the white ninja. A bit creepy. I guess should have added another color. He just looks like a mummy. Again, I was making alterations to the pattern, which didn't go too well (hence, the messed up jaw). Finally, I remastered the pattern. The black ninja is how it's supposed to look. The pattern for this ninja was obtained from a book called Crobots by Nelly Pailloux if you're interested! You can't find it at your local bookstore, you find it at Amazon.

One of these days I'm gonna make some bombermen!

And yes, I have pink bedsheets. :)

Thanks for reading! Hope you enjoyed the pictures!!
