Amigurumi Corn Plush

Posted in Crochet, Plush , on February 20, 2010

This is an ear of plush corn that I made to give my (Canadian) husband when we moved back to Indiana, as corn is a very iconic symbol of the Hoosier state. Crocheted from acrylic yarn and stuffed with polyfill and love.

Personal pattern not available.

Knitted Duck Plush

Posted in Knit, Plush , on February 20, 2010

This is a design for a knitted duck plush that I created in December 2007, loosely based on a Lion Brand pattern whose body shape was achieved by folding a knitted square corner to corner to create a triangle. This pattern is available for free on Ravelry.


Gribblies

Posted in Knit, Plush , on February 20, 2010

What in the world is a “gribbly” you ask?

from urbandictionary.com:
Gribbly/Gribblies:
“In gaming, an enemy/monster that is small and/or insignificant, and usually serves no purpose other than to irritate the gamer/opponent.”

and

“In tabletop gaming, a small annoying monster that does little more than irritate.”

So these are just tiny little insignificant creatures hiding in nooks and crannies that will do little more than just irritate you if they cross your path. They like to pester and annoy whomever they come in contact with, and I like to believe that gribblies are to blame for all of those little irritating setbacks in your typical day. Having a bad day? Blame it on the gribblies!

These are two creations I designed and knit in March 2008. They stand about an inch and a half tall, with the bunny a little taller than the frog due to its long ears.


The Scrabble Pillow

Posted in Plush , on February 20, 2010

My mother-in-law loves Scrabble, so one year for Mother’s Day, my husband and I created this fantastic Scrabble pillow with tiles that spelled out “Happy Mother’s Day” for her. Partially machine and hand sewn. Funky fur fabric lines the back, and the front is made from felt. Approximately 15″ x 15″.


Plush Stapler

A plush stapler may seem a bit odd, but as a gift it went over very well. Plush stapler pattern designed by me. Made from felt and hand sewed.


Zombies?!

Posted in Plush , on February 20, 2010

These are hand painted plush zombies that I made based on (with permission) the fantastic zombie plush design of the awesomely talented Dennis Hansbury in March 2007. The two larger zombies (Edgar Thomas and Velma June, pictured above) were created as a gift for a good friend who loves zombies. The smaller zombie was a test. The zombies were stuffed and both machine and hand sewn first, and features were painted on afterwards.


Bernard Moo Cow Plush

Personal pattern not available.


Stuffiepups

Posted in Plush , on February 20, 2010

Stuffiepups are an original design of mine from August 2007. They’ve gone through a few changes as I tweaked the rough draft pattern, but I’m finally happy with the creation. Made from felt and partially machine and hand sewn. Stuffed with polyfill and fun.
