amigurumi mama bird and baby in egg shell

By Heather on Tuesday, July 11th, 2006

i used an egg shape on the frog, and also on this bird. i made her little chick as a pompom, and the egg shell for him to sit in.

i should have photographed my first attempt to do the egg shell using a picot stitch. it did not look right at all!

IMG_4297.JPGi ended up stitching down her kerchief. while i believe in removable clothes, it just was not sitting right, since it was so small. i used stitches to hold it open around her face. this improved her profile.

    Wow - I don’t check blogs for a few days and look at all you’ve done! It’s all great. I’m very impressed that you work without any pattern. I’m OK with modifying something, but I always need that crutch to start.
