nervous.. nervous.. nervous..

crocheting

finally got my room painted, new curtain rod & curtains up, a huge new table for my craft work and the room cleaned! only left some packing and arranging of stuff left. =D

in between this time, i could not do any beary stuff since they were all in bags n boxes to prevent them getting dusty and dirty. so to satisfy my hands, i picked up crocheting! but oh man... it's so tough!

i can manage to do simple knots and stitches but i simply cant seem to get it right. i'm working on a hp pouch now. over the weekend, i tried a mini hat, a a couple of practice circles. but somehow it still keeps going awry. cant figure out where i'm going wrong.

found a couple of websites (with help from some lovely forum frenz) that offers patterns for bear's clothes and toys. but the jargon simply makes me even more confused. i think, i shall continue with my sewing and furry bears. it's much more satisfying and fun and my eyes wont get tied up in knots!

Prince Charming.... refurbished!

Pls meet Prince Charming. He's all dressed up and ready for a Christmas date!

i'm really quite pleased with how he turned out. He was originally known as Little Pheobe from 1 of my earlier posts. She had an oddly mis-shapened head and very misaligned limbs. hahaha.

i readjusted his limbs, gave him a new head, felted nose, a little trim, some cologne to freshen up. He also has a new crown made of lace and hardened with PVA. And a little red rose for his beloved & a smart new bowtie!!

i also tried brushing on some fabric paint. So he looks as if he has frosted fur. i like it!! ohh, and i also sissor-sculpted his face! =D
