Stella the bunny ~ amiguru-mini
Going on the theory that smaller = cuter,
I decided to make an amigurumi with embroidery floss/thread instead of yarn.

Meet Stella, the pink and yellow bunny ~



You can find her here. She is three inches tall ~ a little shorter than a business card, and the pictures below.



Although, I did find out that if you join rounds (instead of creating spirals), then it is not technically an 'amigurumi'. I bet a lot the dolls are made that way, so I will stick with the name. It is more descriptive of the style and size of the doll than the technique used.


I think my favorite amigurumi's right now are from "Gourmet Amigurumi" ~

I am going to really have to sit down with these photos and get a dose of her magic.

I bought some doll eyes at Joann yesterday. I think that will add to the cuteness. Unfortunently you have to put them before you close up the head, which means the kitty I started on will either get pulled apart, or have embroidered eyes. I am eager to play with them though!



And for those of you following the EB job saga ~ I did get a call from them (a week late), so now I will be going in for training on Wednesday. Part of me doesn't know why I agreed to come in after the 3 month delay ~ but the job will have a few perks (game discounts for Christmas!), and there is not anywhere else around here I am that interested in either. I agreed to give it a try.

Sales have been *really* good lately, so that is making it a little harder for me to want to go after a part-time job, but we may need a steady paycheck if sales slow down again. This also means we may be car shopping this weekend ;)
