Tasty Treats

I finished some of my projects last month. I absolutely love finishing things up, and posting here is like the final check on my to do list. I still have so many projects left to complete to finish up my challenge, but I see a light at the end of the tunnel. Will I finish by 2014? Probably not, but I will get everything made eventually! Click on the link for more project info and the pattern.

 

Below: Coffee Cup (Feb 5), Sushi / Cupcake (Dec 28), Donut (July 18)

 

This Frosted Donut (Feb 24) is seriously adorable. I just love it!

 

Lastly, another shot of the Bakewell Tart (Feb 23). I used a Gatorade bottle bottom inside the base, so it is actually pretty sturdy! So fun! 

 

December 28: Cupcake & Sushi Ornament - COMPLETED

Pattern # 362:  Cupcake & Sushi Ornament

The year is almost over.  It has been a fantastic year though, hasn't it??  This little ornament is adorable.  You can make either a cupcake or sushi roll.  I think the sushi would be the perfect Christmas gift topper for my sushi loving brother -- next year!!

--------------------------

August 30, 2013: I finished this quick little project in one evening. I decided to make both of the little guys. Personally, I think the cupcake is adorable, but the sushi is pretty cute too. I thought about giving it to my bro as a topper on his Christmas gift, but I really don't think he would care. Just being honest there! It also looks really flat. I should have made it taller!

July 20: Cupcake

Pattern #201: Cupcake

I love sweets. And these sweets are sugar free. hehe. Ana Paula has created some amazing amigurumi patterns for her books, Amigurumi World and Amigurumi 2! Lucky for us, this cute cupcake pattern is free!

Feb 22: Cupcake (Food) - COMPLETED

Pattern #53: Cupcakes

This is another fun food pattern. I made these cupcakes, which are also from Hannah over at Bittersweet. The top one is her pattern, and the other one is a modified version that I found somewhere else. I want to make these in a few colors as well, and put the "sprinkles" on like she did.

Oh yeah - and the giveaway is coming soon :)

Feb 2: Cupcake Hat - COMPLETED

Pattern #33: Cupcake Hat

I was thinking about what random / miscellaneous things I could find to crochet, and it came to me: a cupcake hat! Thankfully, Teresa had posted this on Ravelry the day before. I quickly got to work. Currently I am still working on this (the special order baby blanket it taking a huge chunk of time!), but I love it so far! And make sure you check out the rest of Teresa's blog. She has tons of awesome patterns and videos (if you are new to crocheting, definitely watch her videos)!

I finished this one on March 5, 2010. It is not the most amazing project that I did, but it's cute. The hat is a bit too long though, and too narrow for my head. Maybe I will give it away. Or sell it. Here is my picture:
