Amigurumi toys

I saw these lovely free patterns and I had to make them. The dog is not small but he is a cute dog. I like how it turned out. I made his overalls myself not from a patterns but the lady has overalls too. She has another type of dog and a cat. I simple loved this dog so I just made him for now. I might make them later. It is from amigurumi today If I'm not mistaken. I also made this teddy, he is tiny but the colour I've used is not as nice. They use different yarn to make this small teddy but I think it is not strong enough. I thought it was cute. I am very selective in what I make I have to like them. It is also a free pattern but I'm afraid this one is in different language. I don't put wires and safety eyes in my toys lately. I don't know what I touched to make it in italics. Here are the pictures of them.

Amigurumi owl

Hello this is the last toy this week. I don't work on Sundays, I normally research what I will do in the next week. I made this owl it is fairly big. It could be a door stopper if you fill it with pebbles or pellets. The pattern is in different language and I misunderstood a verse I think. I google translate it because I had to make one. I made it with closed eyes for a change. It is easy to make otherwise. I like to try new things. The embroidery on the chest of the owl I have never done. I want to start selling my toys most likely I will open a shop on etsy.

Animal magnets for my grandson

These animal magnets I made for my grandson together with my daughter who is a graphic designer. How I made them is I asked my daughter to save some animal pictures on her computer. I then chose the ones I wanted and she tried to fix some up like the lighter grey darken it a little and so with the white ones she will make an black outline to it. I then cut it out leaving a white outline so they are strong enough. I bought a cheap laminator and pockets about $22 and works fine for this project. I glue gun with magnets but some are not working so I am trying different glue and see which one works best so far it is all good. Warning whatever toys or crafts you make for little kids you should always supervise. I am like a hawk with my grandson and am always thinking of activities I can do for him. I am still crocheting by the way and it is not finished. I will post a photo with details.

Two cute rabbits

I've made these rabbits from this pattern. It is easy to follow and they are very cute. I like making new toys but I made two of these rabbits. I gave one away already for Christmas.
