Posting Patterns...

Hi again all,

I was just thinking that if people saw my plushies and wanted to try them out themselves they should have a pattern to start. So I was wondering if you guys would like me to post the patterns I made to help you guys out. Comment and let me know. Also since I finished posting the plushies that I made on christmas be out on the look out for my future ideas because I have some currently that I want to try and if you guys have any ideas that you want me to do let me know in the comments.

Anyways, thanks again for being here and see you guys later.

God Bless!!

Totoro Plushie

Hi everyone,

I haven't posted in a while so sorry about that. I'm posting today about my last christmas plushie. It was made for my sister and like always I'll first tell the story of how it came to be.
Oh and out of all the plushies I made so far this was the cutest and most time consuming ever.

On to story...
When I was looking for ideas in the beginning my sister was helping me figure out what to make for who. While we were browsing we came across a pick of a Totoro plushie someone had made. First let me say that me and my sister when we were younger were obsessed with Totoro stuff and became real huge fans of the maker so we love all the movies he's made. Anyways, she went crazy with awwwww I want one of those, it's soooo cute, I wish I had one...

Ewok Plushie

Hi again even though I'll be posting in the same day, haha

My next plushie that I will post is for my Mom. She I have to say was the most difficult when it came to what to make. When I shared the idea about making plushies with her she really liked the idea. I had planned at first to make everyone some kind of version of the felt yeti I had made for my grandmother. As you guys know that was impossible because I didn't have the right fabric and not enough of it. That yeti was a fabric monster. Haha

When I told her I would be making something else for everyone she was a little disappointed. So I had to think of something that would rival the yeti. Haha

My mom at one point kept telling me to make her a pikachu if I was going to make something other than the yeti for her. I thought that would be a good idea because when we were little and into pokemon her favorite was pikachu.

Felt Ninja....

Hi everyone,

I don't know about you guys but its been cold here in Flo. da for two days now and I'm loving it. The rest of my family isn't, but I can't help it I'm a december baby. Haha

Anyways, the next three plushies I will be posting are in my opinion my favorites. I had a lot of trouble making them because they were for my mom, sister, and brother. It was hard because they kept coming into my room asking "hows it going, how much do you have left, which one are you making..." I stayed up until the wee hours of the mornìng fighting the attack of being crosseyed to make these guys. So without further ado here's the story that inspired me to make my brother a ninja....

Okay while I was making the plushies for my grandma and aunts my brother really liked the Takoyaki from Aiko. If you guys remember that's the only one he thought was cute. Well he told me that if I was going to make him one I should make the Takoyaki for him too. I said okay at first, but then I eventually changed my mind. I really liked making my own plushies and also thought the Takoyaki was a little girly for him so I had to think for a long time what to make.

Unfortunately....

Hello everyone,

Unfortunately I don't have pics for my other two aunts plushies. It sucks because I really want to share them with you guys. I guess I'll post them whenever I get the chance to take pics myself. It's funny because my mom was telling me I should take pictures of all the plushies I make and I kept saying what for. Now I know why haha.

Anyway, I can give an idea of what I made for them. 

For my aunt Tanya I knew she was always interested in anything asian especially japanese so I looked again on Aiko's blog (savior haha) and found a cute Takoyaki plushie. I immediately thought it was perfect for her.

Pusheen Cat Plushie

Hello once again,

I feel like I have to post all my plushies from christmas fast, because I have a lot of new plushie ideas that I want to begin but can't until I post all my finished plushies.

Also I want to give a quick shoutout to Aiko Miyoko for being so awesome and posting patterns for free on her blogspot. I had such a hard time starting out and looking for some kind of guideline so my plushies can come out looking like a plushie. So many people were asking for payment for patterns and I had no money so when I found Aiko's blog I seriously cried. Thank you for being such a kind person and sharing your fluffies like you call them with the world. Creativity should be shared so again thank you.

Okay onto the plushie. Haha

My Shappo Plushie

Hello everyone!

Today I'll be posting the plushie I made for my Aunt Eli.
Now when it came to making a plushie for my aunt I had no idea what to make. I knew very little of the things that she liked. If I remember for my uncle's wedding we wore like a pastel yellow for the dresses because that was the color my aunt chose. Unfortunatley I only had this highlighter color yellow and that wasn't going to work. I did know what she didn't like though, frogs, dogs or any animal really, and the color pink.

Pikachu Bunny

I'm back again with more of my plushies. All the plushies that I will be posting are the ones I made as gifts for christmas. There are a total of 8 I think.

Anyways, the next plushie was for my baby cousin. She's 7 turning 8 this year so huge age difference between me and her but that didn't matter because we get along really well. So for her I had a tough time because I didn't know what to make for her. I had gone through a lot of videos for ideas. Had found one of how to make a Lalaloopsy from socks and thought...Wow! Awesome just the thing for her. Then you know how your brain becomes your enemy because it's like, but wait does she still like Lalaloopsy, would she even want a handmade plush...sigh...yeah cruel brain.

First Plushie Ever....

Hello again all,

Before I post the pic I want to share the story on how all this craft magic started.

My sister and I were trying to think of gifts we could buy for the family with the little to nothing money we had. I brought up the idea of making homemade gifts. My sister agreed that it would be a good idea because gifts made with love were priceless.
So even though we decided on homemade gifts we didn't know what to make. With inspiration from my sister with all these cute pics she found online I had an idea.
I had tried hand sewing a doll before and thought why not.

Hello...

and welcome,

I have some news....I've finally found a reason to use this thing. I've had a blog I think for 4 years now with nothing to really post.
For me having a blog is like having a virtual diary, which is hard to keep because I've tried having a real diary when I was little and totally sucked at it...anyways, that's the reason why my blog has been either with one or two posts or completely blank...sigh..so sad. TT-TT

Anyways, I recently got caught in this crafting faze in my life that I'm not sure all women or girls go through and have made some, what I hope are, cute plushies for my family.
So now I will be using my blog to post pics of my plushies.
I decided to do this because I have seen some other blogs with their amazing creations and found a lot of people commenting with ideas and giving critic which I thought was nice. So feel free to give ideas and comment about my little creations and tell me what you guys think.

Thanks for taking the time to visit and reading my blog. God Bless! :)
