Lucario amigurumi and other things

  Well, the mystery Pokémon is complete! And, I'm pretty excited because today is the day I put his pattern up on my etsy shop. It's been finished for over a week now, but I needed good pictures, and it has been raining for the last couple of days. Not very good if you want good, clear pictures. So this morning I took him out for pictures. It was colder than I expected (silly me, it's December!) but there wasn't a cloud in the sky, so it was perfect.
  I'm not sure he came out exactly as I pictured him, but then I say to myself, "Can you tell who/what it is?" As long as you and other people can, that's what matters, right?
  Overall, making his pattern was pretty easy. I think the only thing that I didn't like as much was having a lot of parts for him, which required more sewing. But I tried to make it as easy as I could.

  On another note, I finished a Kirby. Remember how I said my little sisters were begging me to make one? Well, it's not the exact size to be labeled "huggable," but I think it turned out cute, regardless.
Orange! Isn't he cute?
  I decided to make him smaller because I thought it'd be too much work to make 8 huggable-sized Kirbys, because, on a whim, I decided I'll try to make all 8 colored Kirbys from Super Smash Bros WiiU. I think the pattern could use a little more work, because he doesn't "stand" on his feet, rather I had sewn his feet on in such a way that it's quite impossible unless he were propped up against something (like in the picture). I also think his eyes could use another coat of paint. I won't be selling or giving the pattern away, rather, I'll just keep it for myself and give the finished products away as gifts or something. But otherwise, what do you think? Would you want one?

  Oh, yes! I just would love to share this picture I took last month while out taking pictures of my little skunk. It has led me to create a folder called 'That one day' and I plan to put other out of place photos in it, haha.
  As I was taking pictures, he bounded out of the woods, coming up pretty close to me. I was pretty still, so I guess he didn't mind me. That's when I started taking pictures of him. I probably wouldn't have, but he had something in his mouth, as you can see, so I thought it was perfect for a picture. He stood still only long enough for me to snap this picture. When I tried to get a closer picture, he lost his courage and ran away. It reminds me of the squirrels in D.C. Now those are a courageous lot, haha.

Anyways, besides making the Kirbys, I plan on making something for my grandparents as well, hopefully before Christmas. And while I'm doing that, I'll be thinking of my next project. Till next time...
