New Rattle

I realized a couple of weeks ago that all of the baby toys I have made have been GIRL GIRL GIRL. It makes sense because all of the babies in my life have been girls. But I still need to design something for the rest of the population. So I did it. I thought about […]

I see a Goldfish looking at me

Gracie the Horse

I’ve always been in love with horses.  I have one of my own who, unfortunately, still lives back in Illinois with my parents.  Though I’m thoroughly enjoying the California version of winter (seriously it’s 70 Degrees and its FEBRUARY!), I totally miss riding.  And I really wish I could have Zachary around horses.  He loves […]

Hedwig

My new step-nephew had a birthday (he was the boy side of the giant cupcake) and he is crazy about Harry Potter! Well, we have something in common. Unfortunately I didn’t know about that until the morning of the party. So I had made his cake and the orange kitty for his sister, but had […]

My mother-in-law and step-father-in-law are football fan. So I’ve gotten into it a little. I would rather play than watch, but Zachary is lovin every moment. Mainly because everyone is yelling and stuff. Anyway, they have started getting out the football plates and other decorations for the big game this Sunday (who is playing again??? […]

Finished the lady-bug

Ya the lady bug is finished. I was going to add antennae, but it looked perfect without them and a little weird when I went to add them. So yay ladybug!! I’ve also put a pic in there of all the pieces before they were a lady-bug.  It was a bunch of little pieces and […]

Finished the kitty (he needs a name)

So the kitty is finished, but it needs a name. But I think I’m going to modify it slightly and make a chiwawa pattern. Yay for cute dogs. Also through making this I figured out how to make paws with claws! How awesome is that. I wanted a more cutesy kitty, but I’m gonna use […]

Things I’m working on now

So here is half a cat. He’s what I’m working on for my niece’s birthday. She’s 17, but she thinks my creatures are really cool. So I’m making her a kitty. He kinda looked like a chiwawa for a bit because I made the ears WAY too big. But now he’s back to being a […]
