Eeveelutions

 CAT!!! This is my cat Sissy, cuddling my recently made Espeon, the physic eeveelution
 I'm surprised I got her to look at the camera for 2 pictures.
 So yeah!! Espeon, my personal favorite eeveelution.  I first saw it in the pokemon game "Pokemon Colosseum", odly one of my favorite Pokemon games besides Mystery Dungeon.
 I actually made up this pattern by myself as well, including all the parts
 Remember the GenerikB post with the Hamster and the Bee?  Those bodies became these bodies for these eeveelutions.
 This one is Vaporeon, the water eeveelution
 I'm so happy with how the tail came out ^-^
 All the eeveelutions are a bit top heavy, so they like to headesk (slam their heads into the desk)

 This is Jolteon, the electric eeveelution.  I'm glad with how the necka nd tail spikes came out ^-^



 This was to show on my facebook my progress through the eeveelutions
 This is Umbreon, the dark eeveelution.


 And we have Flareon, the fire eeveelution
 I actually weighed down the body, and it doesn't make it top heavy any more!!!
 Also, I'm not sure how I like the head fluff, but I don't know what to do to make it better.... If you have an idea, post int eh comments ^-^
 and here's all the eeveelutions I've done
They so cute!!!!!   I haven'u done the other four because I don't have the colors, and yes, I am planning on doing Sylveon

Am I not Turtlely enough for the Turtle Club... Turtle Turtle

If you get the reference in the title, awesome!!!
 Anyways, in Febuary, it was my friend's birthday.  She volunteers at the ASPCA, and they had a tortoise  named Boris.  She always imagined it having a Russian accent.
 And so I made her a tortoise, even if i may call it a turtle
Not that you'll see, but every time I try to spell tortoise, I get a red line under the word, because I can't spell....

My Little Pony: Bracelets are Magic

GenerikB gift, soon to be sent

I know these two don't seem related, but they are!
 So there's a guy I regularly watch on Youtube, called GenerikB (channel here: http://www.youtube.com/user/Generikb )  He does video game lets plays, usually Minecraft, but he's been playing other games recently, like Viva Pinata, Don't Starve, and The Cave.  When he was playing the Cave, he talked about how he lost his hamster in college.  Up to this point, he also has a segment where he opens fan mail, and he has quite a bit of crocheting fans (if you did click the link, at the top there's a pic of him wearing a beanie that someone made that comes with a beard!) so I knew I wanted to make him something, but I didn't know what.  Then I hear his Hamster story, and I knew I had to make him one.
 and so I did.  Also making my own pattern in the process ^-^

It kinda looks like it has a pig nose.....  Anyways!  This also spawned be to realized I can make cute small things.  And part of GenerikB's thing is his fascination for bees in his games (the buzzlegum in Viva Pinata and the bees from the Feed the Beast mod for Minecraft).  So....


 I made him a bee!!!!
 Iz soooo cutes!!!!
 Ahem, sorry, slipped into lolspeak for a second there.  Anyways, this pattern also helped with a project I'm working on currently, and soon shall be uploading on to this blog.
IZ SOO CUTEZ!!! XD

Happy Single's Awareness Da- er.... Valentines Day (ahem... vain day...)

....Yeah, don't much like this holiday, even though I have a boyfriend...  But I love my boyfriend, and I know he's going to get me those super special awesome candy hearts and say stuff on them (the only good thing about V-Day)  But I can't get him nothing, so here's what I made ^-^
 This I actually made myself, didn't look for a pattern... well I did, but I didn't like them, so I made my own ^-^
 Each flower petal and green leaf is a heart, idividually made and sown together, and glued on the stem.
 I couldn't sew the leaves because I wrapped the pipe cleaners (or chenille stems, as I've also heard them called) around the wooded rod tightly.  But my hot glow gun made quick work of them.

See? They're hearts!!!


Here comes the bride, all dressed in white

 In October 2012, my aunt got remarried.  Since she didn't have a job, and nor did her fiance, she heavily relied on family and sales for her wedding.  I was to help with the decorations, and her colors were teal blue and white.
I added the red for the... redness that roses have.  These are the same pattern I use for the rose in the head bands (which I am also selling on my etsy here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/106337932/large-headband-with-a-rose? )  and the pattern for the rose can be found here: http://www.freepatternsdonnascrochetdesigns.com/rose-bench-decoration-free-crochet-pattern.html

FOR THE LAND OF THE FFRRREEEEEEE!!!! AND THE HOME OF THEAAAAA *breath* BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVE!!!!

Hey!!! Sorry about the hiatus! I kind of forgot about the blog ^_^;  Any ways, on with the blog!!
 These are some Easter peeps I found a pattern for, and changed the coloring so I could sell them for 4th of July.  For those not in the know (I do have quite a bit of foreign people checking out my blog ^-^), July Fourth is the day we Americans celebrate our independence from the UK.  Though now days its a reason to drink beer and shoot fireworks
 This was the "first draft" I made, though I didn't like how you couldn't see the red, since the shell was meant to be red, white and blue, but with the bald eagle's head also being white, it was doublely the white, and I didn't think it looked good.
 So I changed it!
 Fuzzy side view!!
Daww!!! its little feeties!!!!

I do have this on sale at my etsy here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/100134506/bald-eagle-chicks?

and the pattern I use can be found here: http://loopsoflavender.blogspot.com/2012/03/hatching-easter-chicks-crochet-pattern.html
