Cupcake

I made this cute and jummie cupcake to thank Anne P for taking me around in Antwerp to find the perfect dress for my sister's wedding.

Prince Charming

Do you think that if I kiss him, Prince Charming will appear? This one is for Fabulous Fab, one of my friends.

Cherries

I made these delicious cherries to cheer my sister up before going to the hospital.

Spring Carrots

Aren't these little spring carrots just adorable? This a birthday present for my godmother, who's a amateur gardner and a great cook. They just fit in perfectly in her vegetable and herb garden.

Super Dry Dude

Meet the Super Dry Dude.
When my brother first found out that I was knitting and crocheting, he made fun of me and said I was just a big geek. But when he saw my Mr Moustache puppets, he quickly changed his mind and asked me if I could make one for him. But not any amigurumi, I had to think really hard and create a special one for him...
So this is the Super Dry Dude, with the colors of Super Dry, the brand he represents, and with a motor helmet, his big passion.

Clara

This is Clara, a colorfull variation on my Miss Kitty Cat. My friend Marie Gabrielle just gave birth to a little girl, Clara, and I'm going over to meet her this week. The photo below are my try-outs to find the perfect little flower to top her head.

Emiko

This smiling little dude is Emiko, my japanese recto-verso amigurumi animal.

He just makes me smile :-)

Victor

This handsome young gentleman is Victor, named after Isabelle's and Frank's first born. I finally decided to make his hat out of felt instead of crochet because it looked fancier that way.

Benjamin

This cute little hippo is called Benjamin, named after Celine's first born. It took me a while to finish him because I just couldn't find the right proportions. But here he is.

Naughty Kitty

It took me a long time to make this new amigurumi simply because I had to find exactly the right design. I had promised my friend Siska on her birthday (July 24th!) that I would make her a Hello Kitty, but a naughty one. Well, it's not that easy to find out how you can "sex" up a "sweet little kitty". I finaly decided I would make it a black kitty instead of white, and with a lot of bling. Then I found on some japanese sites this half demon half angel kitty and that was it. As you can see she has little horns and a demon tail and is wearing a red, naughty dress. But she also has cute white little wings, underpants with lace and a big white heart with some bling. Needless to say Siska LOVED it! I think it's one of my masterpieces so far.

Christmas decorations part 3

I've made those 2 cute little Christmas mice for Julie & Sarah so they can each hang their decorations in their christmas tree. What makes them extra special is the little bells on their head so they make noise when you shake them... hihi.

And I've finally finished my first cupcake. Thanks to the pattern I ordered from Crochet Alley. I've also made a second, bigger one for Morgane's birthday, but I'm still waiting on the pictures. Scrumptuous isn't it?

Christmas decorations part 2

Since the doctor diagnosed that I had a viral infection and that I had to stay home for the rest of the week, I've had more time to do some crafting.

I made 2 new amigurumi decorations: Santa & a little Angel.

And here are my two favourite decorations that I bought in the States when I was a foreign exchange student in 1995-1996.

Christmas Spirit

It might not be snowing in Belgium, but how cute it this little snowman I made for my christmas tree? I've decided to try to make some of my own decorations this year.
Wait untill you see the cookies I'll make during Christmasbreak!

Hello Mathilde

Hello Mathilde! Welcome to this world.

I made this cute little Hello Kitty angle for her and tomorrow I will send it by mail to Paris. I hope she will like it.

From the heart

This weekend the weather was so bad (tons of rain pouring and pouring and pouring), so I had a lot of time to do my crafts. As I needed to make a heart for my Hello Kitty, I tried out the pattern from MyGurumi. That's how I got this big red asymetrical heart. Pretty cool isn't it?

Of course, this one was to big for my small Kitty, so I tried to make a smaller pink one.

craft basket

Little Mathilde is born, the daughter of my friends An & Thierry. I'm making her a little Hello Kitty amigurumi doll. To be continued...

Monsieur Moustache

On September 13th, the famous fashiondesigner Monsieur Moustache turned 30. As I am a VIP, of course I was invited to his big party in Antwerp. On this special occasion, I made 3 little monsieurs moustaches, one with a tie, one with a bowtie and one with a bowler hat. This gift was very much appreciated by MM.

Birthdaygirls

This Sunday I went over to Tinneke's to celebrate 3 birthdays: mine, Tinneke's and Sarah's. I bought loads of party stuff and arrived with a party hat, a party wissle, was dressed in pink, had apetizers and made a birthdaycake. Sarah was a little bit overwelmed at first, but she loved it.

Sarah's birthday gifts were handmade amigurumi mushrooms. The stem is shaped with an Actimel bottle so it can stand straight. Right now I've made only two mushrooms, but Julie's birthday is in a couple of days and I will make some more for her too. They're supposed to be a set of bowling pins. You will see the total result after Julie's b-day.

I also made a delicious mouelleux au chocolat (heavy chocolate cake) with chocolate glazing. Sarah helped with the decoration. Boy, did she love to put those sprinkels on there!

The party was a big succes. The girls loved it. And it turns out that Ninie is also too hard to remember for the little ones, so it's Winie...

Meeko

This is Meeko, my little squirrel. I made this for Gilles, Aline's son, which I was supposed to visit tonight. But since I have the flue, I won't be able to go. Fortunately, that gives me a lot of time to crochet and knit in my bed. I have made this amigurumi from scratch, without any pattern.

Arizona

Meet Arizona.
You might remember the little chick I made for Arthur, Sofie's son. A couple of weeks ago we met again and Arthur was all dressed up like he was going to ride a horse (with the boots, and the pants, and all the other little details ...) When I asked him if he wanted me to make him a horse, he imediately shouted out Yes. And when I asked him about the colors he wanted, he didn't even have to think: a dark brown horse, with a white spot on the nose and blond manes. Boy, he sure loves horses. I hope he's going to like this one. It's a little bit smaller than I had hoped, but it'll do. I found the pattern on http://www.crochetville.org .
