My first Amigurumi: Owl

This Friday (January 8th), we're going to my grandmother's grave - she passed away a year ago and I miss her so much. I thought about her a lot in this past year but recently I think about her more often. She used to knit sweaters, baby shoes & hats and she used to crochet. I have some very strong memories of her with knitting needles in her hands - always doing something, many years ago it was for us - her grandchildren and the last 6 years or so for her great-grandchildren.
Anyway, I was in a amigurumi basic workshop. I wasn't very successful there but I kept trying and this is my first finished project. It's slightly crooked but it's mine :-)

Duck

I sewed another project from Sew Sunny Homestyle, by Tone Finnanger:

Krembo / Negerkuss / Chocolate-coated marshmallow treat

This layout was created for Anat's last dictation / challenge for 2009. The challenge was to use the sample page (the front page of a stack):

The journaling says: Few days before Purim, we bought masks & different accesories, so you can dress up every day to seomthing different, laugh & have fun. Your dummy fit perfectly the ultimative costum!
