This cutie is a macrophage, a white blood cell! She and the fluorescent Staphyloccoccus aureus were a gift for my labmate (and a good friend of mine). She is writing her incredible thesis on the mechanisms that Staphyloccoccus aureus uses to infect chicken macrophages. So I made two cuties so she can have a macrophage and a S .aureus smiling at her even when she’s not in the lab! :)

This is Tom, the turtle! 

He’s here today to remind you about the plastic-free July! 

(He’s an adaptation of another incredible pattern from All about Ami.)

I hope you like him and join me on a small effort to save all Tom’s family and friends

Hello! 

Meet Lara, the lamb. =) She is travelling 2600 km to visit and celebrate Julieta’s first month in the world! 

I used and slightly adapted the free and adorable pattern of repeatcrafterme.

Hello!

I know I’ve been absent for awhile but I have 51 good reasons why! =) 

A very good friend of mine got married a weekend ago and she asked me to make her wedding favors, 51 sunflowers! And after several months here they are!!!

I used the incredible pattern by jhwinter as inspiration (I changed a few pieces so I would be able to make every sunflower on time)!

I’m really happy for the result and to be able to contribute with a sunny part to such and amazing day. =)

... And finally Sophie found her Howl (and his heart =) )!

This is Sophie with the cutie Calcifer! =P

I just LOVE Howl’s Moving Castle (I can’t believe it took me sooooooo long to see the movie for the first time!). I really had the most fun making this custom order. Don’t worry, she’s not alone (I’ll show you her sweet pair soon)!

Hi everyone from Oz!!! =)

This adorable Tin Man has a special someone in his heart! :) ( Don’t we all? :) )

[jumigurumi]

This is Jarl and Smashy =) 

He is the embodiment of a Dungeon World character (with his chainmail, helmet and battle axe)! He might get new armor pieces as his adventure continues =)

Hello!

Today I bring you Wendy, the curious Weasel! =)

She was a gift for a good friend’s girlfriend that just love these tenacious little cuties.

Hi! 

This is Miss Flu Virus and her friend Staphylococcus aureus =)

They were a gift for a colleague of mine that studies these infections. Aren’t they just adorable? I couldn´t resist to made her a bow (and N and H proteins with bright colors) and make him fluorescent green (I love GFP bacteria =) ).

I’m definitely a nerdy-science crochet addicted (and a proud one! =P )

Hello! 

Don’t you feel warmer just to look at this cute Calcifer? =)

The flames were made using a brush and it can be attached to the logs with a small fast snapper. :) It was on top of my fireplace for a couple of days and I couldn’t stop smiling every time he got in my line of sight :)

Hello!!!

When I was asked to make a Spike (from Buffy, the vampire slayer TV show) I wasn’t expecting to be so excited with all the process. It was a challenge but also the perfect opportunity to turn on my sewing machine and to try the new cotton yarn that I bought a couple of months ago!

I confess it was a little bit hard to give him away but I’m sure that he’s enjoying his new home! =)

[jumigurumi]

Hi everyone!

Sorry for the long silence! I’m back on track now!

This small zoo travelled an entire ocean to get to its new home! =) I’m sure that they are very happy marking the pages of incredibles stories and making people smile!

Once upon a time...

There was a prince that in the company of his loyal stallion went looking for a princess. Soon he realized that princesses are no fun and he felt in love with a charming fearless witch. They got married and

                                                                            ... lived happily ever after. =)

This sweet couple was a wedding gift for a “prince” and his adorable “witch”! It was a pleasure to make such an unconventional pair!

I realize that the new season of GOT is still a couple of months away, but I just couldn't resist!!! =D I just love this Jon Snow! I believe that if I had more time (it was an urgent order) I would just spend hours and hours adding more and more details until I got all GOT characters (maybe a couple of dragons?) =P. 

Winter is (almost) here! and I can’t wait!

[jumigurumi]

This is Mini-Camila, the crochet version of the most adorable spotted cat!

I’ll be honest... it wasn’t easy to put the colors in the right place but after three failed versions and a broken felting needle I’m very proud of the result! =)
