Little Purple Angel Piggie

I would like to introduce the little angel piggie,

It was a challenge for me to make the wings, I was thinking to make a 3-D (stuffed) wings, however it wasn't come out good, so I ended up make them as a flat piece.

It has a natural curves so it actually turned out pretty nice :D

If anyone likes the wings I would like to share the instruction to you :)

Happy Holiday!!

October Bride

There are soooo many talented amigurumi makers around us!
I got an group invitation from flickr today...
Amigurumi Animal
pretty cool, I love to look at other people's creations, they all got different character even though they were from the same pattern. (Actually it is very difficult to see two very similar creations! Mostly everyone has their own "recipe") ^_^

love it love it love it~

ok, time to work... >_<
bye for now
