I was partnered up with the lovely Nicole from Unique Pl8z, we were given each others favorite colors plus a few little details. Nicole loves funky quirky things and I can't blame the girl, funky and quirky rock!
Immediately an amigurumi pattern I had found came to mind and I got to work. I love watching my little creatures come to life and so does the toddler. Around that time I was also perfecting my travel mug cozie patterns and so I decided you know what I can kill two birds with one stone and grabbed some of my scrap fabric in her favorite colors and got to work trying out my new ideas.
So you want to see what I came up with?????
Meet Mr. Scrappy! Isn't he just some funky quirky awesomeness!!! I love him and well had a hard time letting him go but off he went :)
So now you want to see the amazing gifts I received??

Isn't this little plaque just too cute and soooo creative! Nicole took her inspiration from this pin hanging out on my DIY one day Pinterest board. And AND she included that adorable little keychain from her shop too! I haven't found the plaque its forever home quite yet, but until I do it hangs out with me in my craft space where it reminds me that I can do hard things :)
This was such a fun little exchange, I have my fingers crossed for more in the future. I love making little gifts for new friends.
