Old School

As you may have noticed, I've got a bit of the thing for the old school Nintendo era. Seeing as how it's one of the first systems I can vividly remember playing (the other being Atari, but I really only remember playing pitfall and facemaker), it holds a special place in my heart.

With that said, I made myself a little ipod cozy:


I made this a little while ago, before I really perfected switching colors, so I made a plain grey cozy and hand stitched the black, tan, and red on. I think it worked out really well cause it's pretty small and detailed. Here's some closer looks:



You can't really see it, but there's a little botton on the back to keep my ipod all safe and secure in its new little home.

I was thinking of maybe making more of these and selling them, but I'm on the fence about it. Mainly because if I do that, then I won't be the only one who has one anymore :o)

I might change my mind tho, who knows...

Kuribo's Shoe

I just finished a nice little crochet Mario with a little Kuribo's shoe power up. I was originally going to give him arms and legs, but I thought he looked way cuter this way (sort of in the form of a mii). I might still put arms and legs on him in the future, but for now, I think he's fine the way he is :o)

Also, I'm not sure why, but all my pictures are getting cut off on the right when I publish this post. However, if you click on the picture it shows the full thing just fine.

I basically just made each part as I went along, so I don't know how easily I'll ever be able to recreate it. I might try again soon. The boot I made from referencing some in game pictures, and mario I based mostly off of this picture from someone else who made a cute crochet mario (much cuter than my mario).
