Bringing back the 80s

Thanks to a few ebay and amazon sellers I was able to aquire all the old dumplin designs " Lollipop Lane and Cupcake Corner" patterns. Super special thanks to Gloriana Nickolis for compassionately departing with the now vintage doll parts so that I may create these adorable dolls. Please check out her store www.stores.Ebay.com/GLORIANAEMPORIUM for all your crafty needs. So without further delay meet the first doll I've completed........ Chocolate Chip!!!!!!!!

Finally got my pics uploaded!

Sorry for the long time from my first post. I had to get a new pc and transfer all pics and blah, blah, blah..... stupid tech stuff. Needless to say, I finally got some of my past projects pics. Most of these are from patterns that I have collected over the years and some are variations from those patterns to kinda make it my own. I have just dabbled a bit in creating my own patterns and so far have created some adventure time finger puppets for my kids and almost completed a full size Marceline doll. Still working on creating her hair. Next will be a Princess Bubblegum doll and a Jake hat. So I'm just upload a banquet of past pics to at least prove that I can crochet.

 Here's my puppets minus one. I made BeMo after I took this pic.
 
 Hello Kitty...... keychain
 
 Grandma was watching her weigh so I made her a fat free cupcake for her birthday.
 
First time I took a bite outta the crocodile stitch.
 

Oswald and friends, plus my kiddos
 

Will the human!
 

Plain dolly in lalaloopsy fashion.
 
 Best Buds (Jake & Finn)
 
 Who needs bling when can make a rose ring.
 
 My daughter loves lalaloopsy. She is suppose to resemble Sugar Crumb. Pillow is next.
 
 She was a birthday present and so much prettier in person.
 
 Who doesn't love the minions!
 
 To explain my daughters lovely facial expression, it was the 4th pic we tried to take. Her two older brothers keep losing all the doll clothes so I decided to make some that don't come off. No More naked mermaids or princesses in my house!
 
 Just experimenting with thread and some new steel hooks.
 
My brother's birthday present. He's a huge MJ fan.

There they are. Hope u enjoyed and look forward to more. I do have more that I will post in the next day or so from last xmas.

New to Blogging

Okay so never done this before and kinda intimidated, but will try to keep up with myself. I can't wait to actually start posting my new creations for all to see. I have been crocheting on and off for a little under ten years. My mother taught me and picked up a few things myself. I love making new toys for my kids to play with. So most of what will be posted in the future will probably mostly toys. I don't have the patience for blankets or super mundane projects. For example, I started a blanket when my oldest was born and still have finished it. That as 7 almost 8 years ago. I still pick it  now and again, but probably won't be completed til right before my death at this rate. So I guess over the next few days I will probably just post some of my random projects that I have done in the past just to get some stuff on here so I don't sound like an online fibber. Hope this helps me keep some of what little sanity I have left as a stay at home mom! Lol!
