Some more plushies to sate your cute crafting hunger

As I haven't been feeding anyone's crafty cuteness needs recently, I figured I'd post some pictures on here to do so. The pictures I'm going to post are mine. They are inspired by pictures I've found on the internet, but I worked hard on making each a reality.
Alphonse Elric from Full Metal Alchmist and FMA Brotherhood

Calcifer from Howl's Moving Castle

Inspired by Tammy Hallam's Duck Plush tutorial on Youtube




A satchel that I learned how to make at a Boy Scouts Order of the Arrow Fall Ordeal

Naruto Maki, a fish cake that is generally used in ramen dishes in Japan. You might have gotten to see one on Naruto.

On a side note...I'm working on making a Ponyo plushie. Here's the beginnings of it.
The pattern I have used from someone else's plush version of Ponyo. It was made using googly eyes though, while I'm planning on handstitching the whole thing and making it into a keychain. If you recognize this picture, please tell me who it is, because I can't remember for the life of me who made it.


Thanks much and De Colores,
Kay

Just a small note to my readers

I know I haven't posted much in the new year, or the whole past year for that matter. I've just got a lot of stuff on my plate at this point in my life. I'm an education major and am working part time as a cashier and taking care of children for my parents when I'm home. I just don't have a whole lot of time on my hands to write on here like I would prefer. It's easier for me to vlog because I can keep doing what I love when I have the time. I don't have to sit in front of a computer typing, which takes me forever and a day to finish before I am satisfied with the grammar and such. So if you want to keep in touch with me and what I'm doing, you can look me up on youtube, which my channel is named Craft Yori Dango. But until further notice, my blog is on a bit of a hiatus.

Des Colores,
Kay

Plushies? Yes please!

  All the time I've had to craft recently has been sparse and sporadic at best. So in order for me to kill my urge to craft 24/7, I have been making mini plushies here and there. Here are the ones that I have finished:

Pink tofu:


Potsticker:

 Onigiri:

 Mini cuppycake:

 Gameboy lookalike:

  Since that is all I have for you right now, comment and show me some of your creations as well.


De Colores!

Have you ever...

Have you ever spent the longest time trying to find out some minute detail about a show and once you found it you just said, "Jeeze, I knew that all along!" I did that tonight.

I spent probably around 5 hours tonight trying to figure out what that buzzing walkie talkie was called that Sana used on Kodocha during most of the first season. And if you wanna know what it is called, it's a burucha. Good luck trying to find a picture of the stupid thing, though. I searched and searched and came up empty handed. Insert exasperated sigh here.

Well, at least now I can remember what the stupid thing is called so that I can do things without being distracted by that thought. And if you can find a picture of the babbit barucha, can you please link it or something? It's driving me nuts.

Yours in fellow insanity,
Kay


UPDATE!:

(I've just found a picture of it!!!)

I will be posting another couple of installments to my "Crafting accessories" series. Also, I will be posting, pictures, links, and maybe a tutorial for the felt plushies I've been making. Thanks for staying faithful and patient everyone.

Toodles!

And the answer is...

On my last post, told you that I made something that I was excited about. Here are the hints again:
  • It is made of felt.
  • It is white, yellow, black, and red.

And the answer is this...
















I hope someone likes Angry Birds so that I can give this little bird a nest to call home!
