Project: Crochet Sanji (One Piece)

Hi everyone!

I've been meaning to update this. About a week or so ago, I finished Sanji from One Piece! It has been about a year since I made Luffy, but he finally has a companion now! :)

     

If you noticed, I've been having some issues with the lighting. Now that I live with at a new place, the lighting isn't as abundant as my previous house. Sooo.. taking pictures is much harder to do. :( And yes, Luffy's head is bigger than Sanji's. I never wrote down any of my patterns, so I forgot... Whoops!! Guess I should start writing them down... or maybe I should remake Luffy?

Anyway, since I'm stuck at home because of Hurricane Irene, I have time to get some crafting (and updating) done this weekend. Considering the MTA suspended all trains and buses, maybe we won't have work this Monday if we're lucky! Just kidding. I have a million things to do at work.. Looks like I'll have to work from home if anything. :(

I hope everyone stays safe and dry this weekend!

Project: Crochet King Panda

Hi everyone!

I know it has been a while, but I have finally finished up a project that I have been working on for the past, uh... say 6 months or so?? Yes, I know. I am the biggest procrastinator ever.

Anyways! This was originally requested (with crown and all) by my sister Janet. For some reason or another, I was having a tough time with his appendages. Either it was too big, too small, or too round - I just couldn't get it right! I pretty much just gave up and kept him around for a while until one day I decided to give it another go.

And what do you know.... Success!!

Here's a side view of him.

So... whenever you get stumped with one of your projects, just keep trying!!! Eventually you'll get it. Don't be afraid to put it down. Just make sure you return to it! :)

I hope you like him!

Project: Crochet Jiggly puff!!

Waaaay overdue on an update!!

So the last time I tried to update, Blogger was being uncooperative. For a whole week. I gave up. That was back in the beginning of January. Yikes! Where has time gone??

Anyway, to not disappoint, I have been working on a few projects since I've been done with my semester. (In case you were wondering, I was done late December and got A's on both of my classes!!) So, during break, one of my friends asked me to make Jigglypuff and of course, I said yes.

Here's how Jigglypuff came out!

Perfect, if I dare say so myself!

Love it? Hate it? Let me know! I rarely ever get comments, so my blog is feeling mighty lonely. Show it some love and leave me some comments! Thanks!

Project: Crochet Champeroni!

Soo juggling school, going to work, playing on my free time and crafting whenever possible is really tough! It took me a whole month to finish this guy, which is way longer than I had hoped. I'm not sure how I feel about amigurumis with a lot of attachments. It takes a really long time to make the appendages and even longer to sew them to the body. I don't know if it's really worth the time. For example, this dog probably took me around 4 hours to make.

Really cute huh? Sure, but if you had to make 8 pieces for his legs, 2 pieces for his ears and one more piece to his tail, I don't know how you would feel.

Yeah..... He's still cute, but a realllll pain to make.

He's cute in real life too! This little guy was made for my boss, whose birthday is this Wednesday. Here's Champ!!

Keep crafting! :)

I wish there were more hours in a day

I had two back-to-back exams last Wednesday so I was really drained last week. Fortunately, I didn't have any school this Monday (Christopher Columbus Day). Being able to have a few days off from school without having to catch up on reading/homework/exams is so relaxing! On top of that, I got a 93 and a 102.5 Everything is looking good! :)

I even had time to get started on a project that I'm making for my boss's birthday. It's another dog, but a different version. Now that I think about it though, I don't even remember if I ever posted up the first one? Oh well. If I didn't it looks just like the white kitty I made, but as a dog.

Hopefully, by the end of this week, I will have finished it.

Already the end of September

Is it just me, or did the month go by really fast?

I was able to get off work early today which was great because I am reminded of how GREAT it is to have free time. I really wish it would stop raining though. It's such a drag and makes me feel gloomy. Anyway, for those of you who do not know, I work full time and I'm taking two classes per semester right now (just started this semester). I actually have two tests coming up on the 6th, but it has been a really long time since I've been able to settle down, relax and write in my blog. One entry won't hurt right?? So much for blogging every once in a while

It's amazing how fast life passes by as you get older. I remember thinking how long I thought summer was when I was younger. Boy, I was such a silly kid. I'd take those summers back any day.

Anyway, that's my rant for the day. Keep on crafting!

Project: Crochet Bunny

Bunny bun bun,

I know it has been a while since I last updated. I've been super busy with work and on top of that, class started so I won't have too much spare time to craft. Since I won't have a whole lot of time to update, I will do my best in writing a little something here and there whether it is a daily rant, a helpful hint, or a mini project?

That being said, please feel free to post comments and I will do my best to answer them! :)

Anyway, I just noticed that I haven't posted up this cute little bunny that I made a few weeks (or months?) ago. I don't exactly know what was holding me up, but here it is now!

Cute? I hope you liked it!

♥ Debbie
