Amigurumi Cupcake Plush

Here is a big cupcake plush I made a few weeks ago.
This was requested by a lady in England.


Big Cupcake Plush

As I was making this, I was also trying to write the pattern, but further into the work, as I see it becoming more and more like a cupcake, I got excited and set my notebook and pencil aside and just kept crocheting. So there is no pattern available for this plush :(

Last year, I wrote a cupcake pattern. I'm done typing it, now I'm wondering why I haven't finalized it.

Thank you for viewing :)

More Amigurumi Cats

Here is another set of crocheted cats I've finished.
These just went out to Europe and I hope they will arrive safe :)

The crochet pattern for this "Alley Cats" set is available here.
The pattern includes the cats, the garbage cans & the fish bones.

Cross-stitch: Snoopy and Friends

I'm happy to find this photo in my computer. It was taken many years ago, after I have finished and washed this cross-stitch project.


I learned cross-stitch in high school and it came to a point when I would spend my free time cross-stitching, and my extra money on patterns and DMC floss. I remember summer vacations by the cross-stitch projects I finished.

I have a small collection of Snoopy books and I still reread them from time to time :)

Handmade Popsicle

I've been wanting to crochet a scarf using the yarn I received from a swap last April, but over the weeks I had one custom request after another (with materials ranging from thread to yarn to clay to wire & beads). I am behind creating items to sell in my other store, behind writing in this blog. Anyway, here is another of my finished mini charm made early this month.


Handmade Mini Popsicle

All parts big and small were made without the use of molds,
as in the others I posted here :)

Amigurumi Alley Cats


The crochet pattern can be found here


These arrived in Germany safely, how happy I was when I learned of it. I was worried that the box of cats would get lost in the mail.

Handmade Mushroom

Here is a mini mushroom charm I made :)
When I started claying, I wanted to make something like this but I never got around to doing it. Just recently I received a request to make one, and here is the result :)

Snail Mail Day: A Package from England


Today is a special day - I am now a proud owner of
Pink-Petal-Designs items! I received Sarah's swap gift in the mail and am so happy :) Even the wrapping is so pretty! Thank you very much!!! Sarah is so talented! Her items are so well-made, it is obvious that they are made with lots of care and patience :) And to share them with me - thank you very, very much!




These are the lovely handmade items she sent me:


Small notebook with cover



A pair of cute flower hair clips



Pencil roll with colored pencils!



A doorstop



Passport Cover



Flower pin



A placemat



2 balls of lovely and soft yarn

I am so happy, I've never received presents these much ever! I am alone in our home right now, nobody is here with me to share the joy. Now I have a small notebook to carry with me to maybe draw or jot down ideas whenever I'm away from home. And the pencil roll is a wonderful idea, thank you for the pencils! :)

Thank you very much, Sarah! To see more lovely stuff, please visit http://pink-petal-designs.blogspot.com/
