Return of the Bunny Mufflers! And prints!

Chasing the Frill is doing bunny mufflers again! It's been a long time since I've made them, but I've started to miss them and despite it being 90-105 degrees F here, it's slowly, but surely(!) cooling down that maybe I'll be able to wear my personal bunny again. I'm sure it's a lot cooler and more fall like elsewhere, which means (hopefully) people may want a cute bunny to cuddle up with?

Bunny Blue

Picked up hand-sewing again and made a bunny. Inspired by The Tiny Tea Party, I made my own pattern and had a go at a teacup rabbit. I don't have minky, so flannel was the closest I could get to the softer parts like the top of the head, ears, and back. While not even being close to the same beautiful quality as her work, I had fun making it.

MokoMoko Animals

I saw Captain America: The Winter Soldier on the weekend it came out. Highly recommend. Before the movie, my friends and I shopped around the area. I don't live anywhere near where we saw it, so it was a bit more exciting and interesting for me. On impulse I bought more fluffy yarn, something I have a love/hate relationship with. It's cute, it's soft, but damn is it hard to see stitches when working with it. This is a little different since it's not fluffy all around but closer to eye-lash type yarn. I got it in 2 colors, white and pink.

Bunny Ice Cream

Bear bonbons, bunny dango, other cute animal styled desserts are thing, right? Especially in the clay sculpting crowd and acrylic charm makers. Bear cupcakes are easy enough, dango is a bit more iffy when it comes to the try colored skewered type. And a drawing of bunnies stacked on top of each other to make a sundae might not translate as nicely. Bunny head styled ice cream is a bit more manageable.

Exterminating Bunnies

Last post of the year, yeah!

Now, I'm no Whovian, but I've got plenty of friends who are. This was made as a gift, since awesome not so useful things rank higher than practical things on his gift receiving scale.

Flutterbunny

Little bunny tails? Maybe.

Pastel Straps

I made this rabbit head with the intention of making a mini scarf, even finished the scarf part and made one leg. Then I got over it, leaving me with a head, a leg that I may have already lost, and a 'scarf' body. Because I really liked the phone strap made for the giveaway and wanted to make more. Cute AND practical.

White is a safe color

White is a safe color. Why? Because it's white, you can pretty much make anything with white. And you can color it afterward if needed. White is my default color for experimenting with patterns because I know that in the end, if the pattern turns out well, it'll also look nice in white too! I don't really like buying specific colors unless I purpose in mind for them, or else they just sit in my stash.

Anime Conji

First, sorry for the low quality picture! I forgot my camera on day 1, so the photo above and below were taken with my 3DS.

Deer Patches

I've been handsewing more, making random things like the bunny above. I'm just trying to think of different ways to use the black puffpaint. The bunny's HANGRY&ANGRY inspired, that's where I got the stitching idea from. It's a pin, and I think it'll look quite nice on my h.NAOTO purse...

Cherry Choco Bunny

An amigurumi cupcake inspired this bunny. It had "chocolate sauce" and a cherry, but I didn't have much cupcake material, or rather, I didn't want to make one since I could be using my colors for other things. White the experimental yarn, and this time it went into a bunny! A difficult bunny at that. It gave me a lot of trouble.

Demon Bunny

Finally finished the black bunny scarf. The red eyes kind of "glow" in photos with flash. It's pretty cool. But since the rabbit is black, it's hard to take photos!

Colored Eyes

I was running low on safety eyes and with Anime Conji coming up in two months, I need to stock up. Yet I somehow ended up with colored eyes instead of restocking the solid black. I wanted to experiment, and the supplier that I had originally gotten the black from also had a pair of albino/pink eyes. They were cool...but I wasn't sure about buying them yet. I waited too long and someone else snagged them. Instead of just buying the black eyes, I looked up another shop that also had albino eyes, but more red. Wasn't about to let the opportunity slip again, so I bought them along with another two pairs of eyes, also colored.

Bunny Bun Progress

Since the picture of the pink bunny head with ears kind of resembled a rabbit shaped bun, I decided to actually try and crochet one! I used my bunny scarf pattern as a guide to start out and was going to keep track of what alterations I made...didn't quite work out, but I think if I try again, I should be able to get down a pattern, even if it's not the same as what I did for this one. But I don't know how much interest there would be in such a thing, and I personally only need one...but if people would like to own one, I could certainly make more.

As I was stuffing it, it started to resemble a cat toy that could be filled with catnip. If I had any, I likely would have put some in for my cats to bat around the house. Oh well. It looks kind of like a nugget or an egg too.

Marshmallow Pink Bunny

It looks kind of like a pink bunny shaped marshmallow here, right? That's something kind of cute, isn't it? Maybe if I adjusted the head pattern and made the ears shorter and changed eye placement it could be like a bunny-bun. Maybe.

Vanilla Pink Bunny

Finally completed this oddly cute bunny. I actually finished it on the 22nd, but I wanted to wait until after Christmas. Yeah, this is a Christmas gift, not *from* me though. But she did get to pick the colors and how it would be distributed, hence the color combo. I quite like the bright pink and vanilla white together, but it's much too bright for me to use for personal items. Oh well.

Pre-assembly, to see how it would look all together. It's kinda like it's wearing a sweater. The color in the specific pieces make it look kind of panda like too.

Blue Mint Bunny Scarf Progress #2

Progress photos! I actually finished the scarf weeks ago, but kept forgetting to upload the photos. Here is most of the pieces, with the head being started.

Because there were no ear shape/length specifications [i forgot to say that i could mod it], I just opted for the short rounded ears, since it was meant as a gift and I couldn't remember the age of the girl it was intended for. I figured shorter ears would suit someone younger, as longer ears could get in the way/in her face. I personally prefer the shorter ears myself, because I don't like the longer ears brushing against the bottom of my face when they're up.

Blue Mint Bunny Scarf Progress

While watching Tron: Legacy Thursday evening, I started on a new bunny scarf. Aside from my first bunny, this probably the fastest I've got the scarf done, as I've just completed it about a half hour ago. Even though it's just the scarf right now, it's the most tedious part, so with that out of the way, the rest of the bunny should be done by the end of the night, or by tomorrow night. I'm thinking a black ribbon or a white crochet bow accessory.

AoD MiMi "Leilah-Marie"

In non-crochet business, I got some velvet flowers from Japan. I was in a local group order for it and I just bought them on impulse while I had the chance. They're really quite lovely, but I can't think of anything to attach them to/accessory to make from them. I braided my hair yesterday and wove them in, so they're pretty nice as is with just the wire. I might just keep them that way and weave them into things as needed.
Also, made the bow at a Lolita craft meet up. It's got a snappy clip in the back. I need more fabric bows.

Blue Bunny Scarf

Finished the blue bunny scarf today! Yay! And the sun is still out, so I've got naturally lit photos.

Blue Bunny Scarf progress

It looked so weird without ears, so the legs are temporary ears for this photo...

Started on the blue bunny today. Since I was home all day, I didn't have a lot of distractions [besides the internet of course]
