I was looking at Kitty Genius’ blog post about Lemmikkiapina’s etsy shop and I knew I had to post about her amazing little creatures. I love the proportions of their lovely bodies and the texture of their fur and how sweet their little poses are. These make my heart melt a little… no, wait, more than a little. I would love to buy one of her lovelies, set it on a shelf and covet it for the rest of my days.
As ya’ll know I’m going to be a vendor at Crafty Wonderland on May 10th (Mother’s day for you guys… don’t forget!). I’ve been sewing things and knitting other things and dreaming up still more things to haul out there with me. Here are some of the things I’m sure you’ll see if you go!
The lions.
The weird squiddies and aliens.
Chickens!
Oh, there’ll be some bunnies, leeches, finger puppets and more things there too. Just wait and see!
I made this little guy at mom’s request. One of her old students is having a boy baby and she wanted to give them something. Thus, Colin was born. Here’s the story that goes with him:
“Colin loves to make pudding. Chocolate, pistachio, lavender… he loves to experiment with all of those flavors. Sometimes they’re good, most times they’re better left as experiments. More often than naught you can find Colin cradling his big mixing bowl, licking off the last bits of pudding from his wooden spoon as he dreams of the next batch of utterly, fantastic and amazing pudding.”
