Ribbon Girl Challenge #15 – Blue and Pink

 

Good Morning, my lovelies….Happy Happy Sunday to you all!  Hope that you are all doing well and enjoying the weekend!  Its rather cold and frosting here today, but I kinda like it when we have had a frost looks soooooo very pretty outside :o)

Anyway, today sees the start of a new challenge over at the Ribbon Girl and this time we want to see your creations following the theme of Blue and Pink :o)

and this is what you lovelies can win :oD…..ooooh how gorge is that kit…love it!

and also……..

For my project this month, I decided to get hooky again, and make a bear :o)…….been a little neglectfully of the old bears of late as I think I made that many last year….and I find with my bears that I work so much better when I just randomly make one, ……..they flow so much better than work to specific requirements……. I have to say that thoroughly enjoyed working on this little beauty…….

Her name is Rose, and she is a taller bear to what I normally do……she measures about 10ish inches or so. 

{if you click the picture it will enlarge for you}

All the embellies are from the Ribbon Girl and they are as follows :-

Pretty Blossom Flowers
Pink Rose Buds
Small Pink Spotty Button
Sparkly Flower Button
Tiny Pink Pom Pom Trim
15mm Blue Satin Ribbon

She has been crocheted in soft DK and 4 Ply Yarn, her eyes are made of glass and she has been stuffed using high quality super soft fibre stuffing.  I crocheted her using a 1.75mm and 2mm hooks.

Now she was suppose to have a pair of shoes too…….I still need to add those, but dozy here, broken her 2mm hook and only managed to get a replacement yesterday.  I have soooooooooo many hooks, and many in the same size, except a 2mm, I only had one of those LOL…….and it was not a particularly good one either cos it snapped LOL…so I replaced it with better ones :o)…….my fave hooks at the moment are the Clover Soft Touch ones…..sadly they are a horrible goldy colour, and so not very nice to look at, but they are super nice to use.  I can not understand what made them make them in that awful colour…..I reckon anything would have been better :o)……….LOL….now if they had been red spotty then I would have been as happy as a pig in poop!

Anyways, I shall love you and leave you all.  Don’t forget to pop over to the blog and check out the rest of the DT’s creations, you won’t be disappointed I’m sure :o)

Hugs to you all!
