Little Angel & Moon.

In one or more theologies, a guardian angel is an angel that is assigned to protect and guide a particular person, group, kingdom, or country.
Belief in guardian angels can be traced throughout all antiquity.
The concept of tutelary angels and their hierarchy was extensively developed in Christianity in the 5th century by Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite.

A "Christmas" doily

That way my husband named that doily. A simply story:

I wanted to crochet that doily in different colours then original, and it got that way.

As normally happed with my crochet project it would a gift to someone special.

The doily went to my husband coworker as a Christmas present. She was amazed.

I made it long time ago and just now showed to world. I just got a chance work with pictures.

A Christian holiday honoring the birth of Jesus Christ, Christmas evolved over two millennia into a worldwide religious and secular celebration, incorporating many pre-Christian, pagan traditions into the festivities along the way. Today, Christmas is a time for family and friends to get together and exchange gifts.

My sweet Leopard... for friend

They live in sub-Saharan Africa, northeast Africa, Central Asia, India, and China.

However, many of their populations are endangered, especially outside of Africa.

TOPO GIGIO

Topo Gigio was the lead character of a children's puppet show on Italian and Spanish television in the early 1960s. The character, created by artist Maria Perego, debuted on Italian television in 1959 and has been customarily voiced by actor Giuseppe "Peppino" Mazzullo. The Italian nickname "Gigi" is a derivative of Luigi ("Louis"),^[1] so Topo Gigio could be translated as Louie Mouse.

Accessories...

I made 3 accessories...
They are 3 headbands

First, A butterfly made from multicolour 100% cotton yarn, size approximately 2in.

Butterflies are deep and powerful representations of life.

Many cultures associate the butterfly with our souls.

The Christian religion sees the butterfly as a symbol of resurrection.

Around the world, people view the butterfly as representing endurance, change, hope, and life.

The gavel & the 'sound block' for judge :)

Hi, everyone
Today I have a gavel and "sound block" for judge.

Here is a little history:
The wooden mallet that a judge uses in court is called a gavel.
Judges have them as a symbol of authority and also a forceful signal - they hit the sound block with the gavel to signal that the court is in session. They also hit it when the court is adjourned, when a sentence is passed and to demand order and silence in the courtroom.

The gavel has been used to control meetings since the middle ages and there are rules for its use in 'Robert's Rules of Order'.

I made a gavel & sound block by my husband request. Yarns used light and dark brown.

Hook 3.5mm/E/4. The gavel & sound block sizes are as the same as real ones.
I made them probably in 3 hours.
You can purchase pattern gavel & 'sound blog' 

Crochet Little Bear on the Moon

Hi, everyone.

Do you think a bear can not sleep on the moon?
Sure he can. Anything is possible :)
 I finished my old wish "Crochet Little Bear on the Moon" .

I crocheted bear with "Divine" Patons yarn 50/50 acrylic and wood; moon with old yarn no name.

I used hook 6.00mm/ J/10 for both. Eyes and nose bought.

Size approximately 12in. bear and moon over 12in.

 The bear slightly groomed: brush and trim.

  

How did toy bears come to be named after President Theodore Roosevelt?

Sakura - Cherry Blossom

Cherry blossoms are a symbolic flower of the spring,

a time of renewal, and the fleeting nature of life.

Their life is very short.

After their beauty peaks around two weeks, the blossoms start to fall.

During this season in Japan, people like to have cherry blossom parties with colleagues,

friends, and family.

A cherry blossom makes people merry.

They enjoy eating, drinking, and barbecuing underneath the cherry blossoms.

We call this custom hanami. Hanami literally means “watching blossoms,”

and the tradition can be traced back at least a thousand years.

We bring cooked meals, alcohol, snacks, and sweets, like a potluck party.

Schools and offices hold welcome parties during hanami,

a chance for people to bond and meet new friends.

Made from pink 100% cotton, beads, and floral green wire.

 Hook 1.65mm.

 



A little devil :)

My latest crochet toy is "A little devil"
I was feeling a little mischief and that came out.

Made from 100% cotton black, white, and red. Hook 1.65mm. It is approximately 2" tall.

From the tip of his horns, to the twist in his tail, he is all about ...

hard to tell what he is all about.

He is a cute little stinker who isn't quite sure what to make of Valentine's Day - but he certainly loves all the passionate kisses and steamy romance associated with it and he's ready for anyone.
