Recently I decided to give every of my dolls a name, it's like to give them a soul.... :)

This is Louis, a bear that do arts, he is a painter. Louis likes to use paint brush to paint, sometimes he use his paws to paint.

This is Bernice the bee, for my friend Bernice :) and her nick is Bee.

So this is a bee that represent herself.

I think everybody use some kind of object or animal, or character, or even superhero to represent themselves. Like my nickname is mushroom and I use mushroom to represent myself. I cannot explain why, but people start calling me mushroom and I think it's interesting and it fits me well (haha!) so I start using mushroom as my icon.

My friends are everything: Bunny, Tiger, Muffin, Fish, Doraemon, Teddy, Barbie, Snake, Puppy, Hello Kitty....you name it. :)

What's representing you?

I'm backkkkkk!!

Sorry for the long wait....I'm backkkk!!!

Have been stressed for so long....about to give up crocheting....but I knew I can't.

So finally I have made some important decisions and gather up times for amigurumis again :)

Hello.

I'm still working hard on the orders....=__="

Now I'm having a break and upload some photos :) Enjoy!

Little white fluffy! The new owner called it "Lobie" :)

This size is just like a real puppy, and it can keep you warm in the winter :)

Duckie with shiny scarf :) pretty!

I'm going to make something big...stay tuned!

Buddy for my lonely Christmas...

Last Christmas wasn't that great...I got a cold, I lost my voice for a week!! >_<

I was stayed home...no party!!! how sad.

For the "social responsibility" reason (I don't want to spread out virus), I paused all my orders, however I made this little baby with my lonely Christmas...

After the new year...

Right now I'm 95% recovered and working hard on delayed orders...

sorry if you're waiting... :(

more picture to be uploaded.

Happy 2010!!!!!

wish you all the best!!

Answer from last post:

Sackboy in Chinese Dragon Costume!

I never thought that I can actually make it...:)

very challenging but I enjoyed making it soooo much!

I love it so much, I even wanted to make one for myself....hahaa

Side view

Back view

I'm not sure if the back's like that because it's hard to find a picture that show its back...

and I didn't get the costume myself in the game either.....sorry :P

The costume is removable :)

before I'm off to another project...

Happy Holiday Everyone!!! <3

ahhhh...

Christmas is coming sooner and sooner....

Recent Project!
"Potato" the puppy! :D


I love it! It really does look alike my puppy that I had when I was in elementry school... :)

Project #2:
This one is really one of the Highlight out of all my custom orders!
Guess what is it? hahaha...
It's kind of hard to guess for now... :P


Got any clues? :)

busy busy busy

Pom Pom Christmas Tree

Recent Project...

cutie twins :)

other orders...

worked ALL day everyday (I really mean it...from 7am in the morning to 12am at night!) for these orders...whew!

----------

I always wanted to have my own brand's tag on my amigurumis....

I found a online store called Namemaker.com, which selling customized clothing tags, gift wrapping papers, stickers, etc. A pretty nice little store.

So I ordered these woven clothing tags....

I think the price is reasonable as it is all customized.

Ahhhh...how nice....loved it so much :D

--------------

One more thing I would like to mention to those who were misunderstood me.

I heard people saying that I'm having attitude about not willing to make more than one doll of each style (?).

I make almost everything I can to satisfy my customers.I'm happy to make as many dolls as my customer wants.
I don't understand why people were saying that.... :(

The only thing up to my mind is cartoon characters amigurumis. That is the only thing I will not make ahead of time and display at my cubic box. It is because I really have a concern about the copyright issue for registered cartoon characters/registered icons/anything that is not originally created by me.

All these registered cartoon characters are made to order, that means I make them if customer request it, even though the patterns are created by me, however I will not make one or two more and advertise them at my cubic box.

Thank you very much for your understanding!
