Me: alright I'm done for the year on crafts

Also Me:
Four crochet pieces that have two light pink tips, a band of magenta, a band of light blue, and a smaller band of white. A white yarn tail goes off each of the pieces to be attached to another piece.

Last craft project of the year for my at work secret Santa. Oddly fitting for the current timeline...
A teal dumpster with a fire springing out from its right, left from the current view, while the other half is closed. The main color of the dumpster is in teal yarn while the fires are yellow with red around it. The lids and wheels are grey. The dumpster has a little smile embroidered onto the front

My daughters and I made gingerbread cookies this weekend. First time we've ever made them. Will be doing it again later this week in an attempt to make a homemade gingerbread house.
Gingerbread cookies lined up on a three level cooling rack. The cookies are outlined and decorated with white icing. There are gingerbread men, ornaments, snowflakes, Christmas trees, angles, and snowmen with some cookies being in other Christmas shapes.

Been a bit but here's....Pikachu. I've made this one before but had a request and this is actually the kit I bought that I failed to do when I first started doing crochet. The hook I used was even smaller than the one provided! The other Pikachu is shown for comparison

On the back the tail is yellow with a brown base along with two brown stripes towards the lower part of the back. Two Pikachus standing side by side. The larger one has felt cheeks and eyes rather than embroidered with thread giving it a slightly pushed out look. A pillow is behind them to help prop them both up.

I'm extremely excited after being asked by my GM if I'd be willing to tank for the first couple months of Throne of Thunder. I've been the third tank for about a month now, but our main DK tank might be gone for a while. It's almost poetic as ToT was when my tanking career on the monk started.

Hazbin Hotel has made me excited for Tuesday night, my work Monday, because the new episodes come out when I'm not busy and there's nobody else in office so I can laugh/talk to myself as loud as I want.

Bulbasaur is done. I've been done with it a bit but social media isn't a place I've wanted to be lately so yeah...now it's Christmas presents I need to hurry up and finish XD. As a bonus I got a hold of charmander briefly for a group shot.

#crochet #pokemon
The three original starter pokemon in a field. From left to right are Squirtle, Bulbasaur and Charmander. Squirtle is a blue skinned turtle with a light tan belly on the shell and the back an orangish-brown. Bulbasaur is a quadrapedal stout reptile that has a dark green leaf bulb on the back with the skin of the pokemon being a teal color with green spots. Charmander is a dark orange bipedal lizard with a flame on its tail. The belly is a light yellow. Bulbasaur the grass type starter pokemon.

In this picture Bulbasaur is climbing onto a box of Crayola crayons that are slightly opened like it's trying to eat some. A black charizard, a dragon like pokemon, with dark red wings can be seen on the opposing side of the crayons

A late WIP update but it's been busy. The main part is finally done on Santa. All that's left now is to do all the backstitching and French knots to bring this one home. When? Hopefully soon but classes just started back up and OSRS has a mini league going...

A work in progress cross stitch project of Santa holding a sack filled with presents. Santa is seen in his red suit with white fur along the edges. Inside of the tan sack he's holding are several presents with different color wrapping paper. In Santa's hat a few green leaves can be seen stuck in it. He also has a small christmas tree with yellow and red baubles and a wreath on his right side. At the hip are a set of red poinsettias with green leaves poking out. Held next to the poinsettias on the left is a small tan colored sled. Below Santa's black boots covered with snow, is a large red block with the text "BELIEVE" done in a tan color with a small red dot in the middle of the letters. This is framed by green leaves around Santa. A work in progress cross stitch project of Santa holding a sack. Santa is seen in his red suit with white fur along the edges.

Continuing along the top portion of Santa, I took a small detour to start cleaning up the bottom. I had to frog some stuff around the poinsettias to fix an error I literally made years ago and am just now catching.

Vulpix is all done. Other than the tails and hair this one wasn't too bad. I'm cool with how few minor details there were and it came together nicely. Up next is Bulbasaur to round out the original starters.

#crochet #pokemon
Vulpix the fire fox pokemon. The main body is in an orange-brown with the hair and tails being more of a reddish-brown. There are six tails bunched together with a slight curl at their tips. On the head is a patch of hair the three lengths of curled hair behind it. Dark brown with some reddish-brown brown are on the inside of the ears. The for legs have dark brown on the tips of them.

Okay finally have all the pieces done after a lot of hand cramps with the hair and tail curls. Hoping to finish this entirely before I return to work this week.

#crochet #wip
Parts of Vulpix the fox pokemon. In an orange-brown is the body and head with its paws being capped off with a solid brown. Two ears are also in this color with a dark brown inner portion. There's also a white strip that will make up the belly sewed to the body. In more of a red brown are two separate pieces of hair that have a shape similar to a trident. There's also two sets of curls, one of three and one of six. The smaller set are curled to the base while the larger set have a curl at the end.

This is a late entry but here's the progress on my current plush project. I've got the main parts of Vulpix done and now I've got the tail and hair to make before I put this one together. Pretty good number of pieces to make still so we'll see how long it takes

Progress on Santa is moving. I've finished the leaves that frame the picture along with making some progress along Santa's back where I frogged a bit to fix a counting issue. As a bonus I've put a picture from 7 months ago on my last update for it.

And my youngest's plush request is complete. Her name is Octavia and she's very soft and helped me burn through the rest of a dark pink skein. I used a bit of green on top since I ran out and the sparkly pink for the eyes. I've got a couple pokemon projects lined up next...

The winter dragon in all its detailed glory is done. I've attached the picture prior to the embroidery just as a showcase of how much it pops when all the little details are added, even though they take a good bit of time to do. Now for Santa...

A light yellow dragon with a light blue coat with fur around the neck and bottom of the coat. Its tail, also light yellow in color, ends in a blue fin. Atop it's head are grey horns with a blue crest. Between the horns are blue jewels. Framing the dragon is a grey circle with a lantern sitting on some leaves in front of the dragon. Multiple small snowflakes can be seen within this circle. At the bottom of the lantern are a trio of red berries.

So the cross stitch portion of this is now done. The next step is adding all the embroidery details that will really make this pop out and I'm excited to get cracking on it.

Almost there. I finally finished all the tentacles and now it's just finishing up the body and making the eyes. I will run out of the pink yarn I'm using before that point so it will get a slight bit more... colorful.
