Amigurumi Bing
I made Bing for my grandsons because they watch him on tv. Lucky for my someone posted the patterns for free. I owe my gratitude to her. My grandsons will love him they sleep with may of the toys I made for them. It is a fairly easy pattern. It doesn't take too long to make. those brown lines I thought they will take me forever. I listen to stuff while I am doing crochet. While doing this I listened to George Muller a german man who opened orphanages in Bristol without asking people for money Only praying to God. what an inspirational man. The guy who reads his narratives is so soothing to listen to. So It is kind of relaxing for me. Look him up on pinterest for the free pattern.


Christmas amigurumi wreath
I Made this beautiful amigurumi wreath with Christmas colours. I made one for my daughter that I was giving her on Christmas day but I ended up giving it to her early. I since made two other ones for my sister. I saw one on pinterest which I liked then I watched on youtube to see how they are done. I used a foam ring and I made large santa big enough to fit in the middle. I never learn I should have wrote the pattern down the first time. I also did the hat as I go and the balls at the buttom. You will never know if you have enough or if you need smaller or larger ones. I did few sizes and then I stuck them with glue cheating lol but I sewed Santa. I also did a cord at the back so you can hang it from but it you might need a bigger hook you can always add a ribbon to it. I used Christmas colours yarn. You will need about two white, one red and one green plus the foam and stuffing if you like to try this out.

Amigurumi toy
I just love this toy. It is cute but I don't think it is safe for kids. I wouldn't give one to a kid I feel the hands are not strongly attached but still cute. I have been wanting to make one of these and postponed. i followed a pattern which was in a different language and then when I couldn't understand I continued on my own like the feet and part of the hat. I often tend to do that but at least I get to finish it. It was suppose to have wings but I couldn't be bothered.
Men boutonnieres
I had to make a few for the fathers and all the grooms men. It was their wish to make so many. You can see a smaller one for the Paige boy who was not even three years old.


Wedding pomander
Kissing ball or pomander I found that these are called. I made two for the flower girls and since the ages were different I made one slightly smaller as she was only three years old. I never made these before so I searched on you tube how. I love you tube the things I learn from there, but I did a course for making fresh and artificial flowers. I think it is better to know how they are made though I was very, very challenged doing the bride bouquet and no one had a video about large one. I tried many Technics and errors before I came with the ONE. The pearl ribbon I love it so much for these kissing balls. I used smaller roses for these.


Artificial bridesmaid flowers
I made four bouquet for the bridesmaids. They were all artificial with the choice of flowers that the bride to be then, picked.The bride's mother was pleased with them that when they were done she wanted to keep them all. Here are the pictures of them.

Mother of the bride flowers
I made these four corsages for the mothers and grand mothers. They wanted them on a pearl bracelet. I might make a video on how to make corsages. It is not hard you just need a good eye for details.
