Little Batman

Since my son in law introduce batman to my grandson, I had to make him one. I found this free pattern from Pinterest .com. It is fairly easy for those who are used to read patterns. The hardest I found embroider the bat. I had to find a logo of batman and hand free draw it. I had to do it a few times as mine was a bit big. I used yellow, skin colour, grey and dark blue because it is for a child. Dark colours is hard to work with in my opinion. It measures 23 centimeters good size for a child to hold. Actually a child should be supervised because of the eye buttons. I could have embroidered the eyes but I liked the way it was made with similar buttons. Anyway for you out there who would like to give this little batman a go good luck. I made him a cape easy to make.

Russian designer doll

I have been wanted to make one of this Russian designer lady. The problem was her patterns are written in Russian language. After asking and commenting many times if I could get her pattern in English to no success, I decided to buy her pattern anyway. It looked like Greek writing to me, I tried google translation each paragraph and voila there was something written in English. I decided to give it a go. I got a bit of problem along the way but I did what I thought was right. They must have lots of variations that means the same sometimes. I still wish the patterns were in English. I did brown hair instead of purple because I didn't have the colour yarn then and I wanted to start on it, it is like me being impatient to start on it. I enjoyed making it. It is a fairly large doll. I added straps to her shoes because it wouldn't stay on. I also added Velcro on the jacket instead of buttons. I would prefer buttons next time it is neater. The rest is like the pattern. A young girl would be very happy with a doll like this one.

Lala-Oopsie doll

I started this few months ago and I wanted to finish what I started, this is also one of them. I stopped making it after I joined her up. I started different colour of hair and I wasn't sure of it so that is why I stopped. I didn't think it was going to look good so I always have a reason why I stop finishing them. I started on a dress pattern from Amigurumi BB and I changed it a little. I think red looks good for a dress with black trimming. I wanted to making striking colour for hair so I went for strong yellow. I would have finished it differently if I kept going on it few months back even though I looked at so many dolls for inspirations. I kind of made her hair like a blonde doll with a red ribbon but her dress is completely different than that doll. For the boots I also looked at another doll just to try it out. If you guys would like this doll it is from Amigurumi BB which I thank her so much for the patterns.

Elf doll

Trying to finish what I started here is my finished elf doll. When I am not satisfied up to my standard I usually not complete it. This is my weakness but I am trying to finish things so I can start on new project. I made two sets of ears as the patterns say but mine came too small so I made another set with two yarn and I stuck them on, not very happy that the ears came close to the face but I can never unpick my work I sew too good.  I also should have used a smaller crochet for the body. I am a harsh critic for my work. I think I could have done better. I got the pattern from amigurumi bb she has many free patterns. She is very generous to share all her patterns for free. Good luck in making the elf girl I don't know if I ever try the elf boy now.
