Easter Pig
I participated in two swaps this month. One was specifically ami themed, but the other seemed appropriate to include amis.
This project was made by adapting the free Red Heart pattern Little Crochet Piggy found here. I made the skirt a little fancier and I added sleeves. I also adapted a Barbie pattern to add an Easter hat. The Easter basket was made by adapting a free Barbie pattern for an Easter basket found here.
I love finding ways to use my doll clothes patterns to add more to my amis.
One great find that was helpful for this and the elephant project were tiny Easter Eggs at Michaels. In the past, I've found them at JoAnn's or Christmas Tree Shops, but this year no luck. They had larger eggs, but no eggs that would fit inside mini Easter baskets. While at Michaels to get something else I was rather surprised to find they had the tiny eggs.
