Groot

8-bit Baby Groot Tutorial

It’s been a while since I’ve dabbled in 8-bit art. I did a video in the past about perler beads: This time I made an 8-bit character using Hama beads. These are more flexible because I used the mini beads instead of the regular sized ones. These are really fun to make with your kids […]

I’ve been doing YouTube videos for about 6 years now and I don’t claim to be an expert but I’ve been a viewer too and have seen difficult-to-watch videos on YouTube. I’ve also been trying to upgrade my videos but it costs money to do so. Sometime ago in 2010, YouTube gifted the top 500

Newborn Beanie

My 1st Afghan!

So I’m sorta taking a break from making dolls at the moment. I guess I’m not feeling as inspired to create new patterns. It’s mostly because of the big changes that have happened the past few months. I’ve been busy with wedding plans and other things, of which I will delve into later. I came

Hulk

Hulk Smash!

A few months ago I finished a Hulk doll and just recently I have posted a pattern for him here on my website: Hulk Sackboy. I previously wanted to create a pattern for the Hulk for sale but I changed my mind and I decided to make it for free. You can access the pattern
