Todays ami... little Bamboo.

So a friend of mine has a very small office space (cubicle, lol) and she doesnt have a lot of space for any greenery. I decided that just wouldn't do. Meet little Bamboo, he stands at about 4 inches tall and is a little ray of sunshine. I might have to write this one down or something he is just too cute and really fast to make. I later decorated the pot with little flowers made out of buttons, I just can't stop using buttons lately.

Let me know what you think...

LOL a happy poopie!

Okay so its not my pattern and all that but I could NOT resist!!! Who doesn't love a happy little pile-o-poo???
I found this pattern here:

The pattern is a translated pattern but its not hard to figure out. So go make some poo today! LOL

First post here... attempt at one anyway.

So this is my first post here and I am hoping it doesn't suck, lol! I am going to be using this as my crochet/craft blog (thats right, another crafty blogger) so if you aren't into crochet or crafts you are in the wrong spot! I am really into amigurumi (who isn't?) and afghans. Though my daughter is def more of a fan of the ami so thats what gets made more often, lol! I am new to ami but picking it up pretty quickly and trying my hand at making some patterns, if they work out I will try to pass some along!

I have been crocheting since I was 8, so since 1986... or so. I love just about all types of yarn craft but esp crochet. It has a soft spot in my heart because my Great Grandma Baird taught me how , and her and I spent a lot of time together crochet and gossiping. It made me feel very special and like I was very importand and all grown up.

The pic up top is my fave pic of my GG when she was young... so glamorous!!

So in my posts here I will be exploring crochet and making pretty things in her honor!
