The Mario fridge magnets (pictured to the left) feature a question mark block, a red mushroom, a green 1up mushroom, a fire flower, a star, and a gold coin - all in fridge magnet form!
The Pacman fridge magnets are a set of six needlepoint magnets: Pacman, Inky, Blinky, Pinky, Clyde (the four ghosts), and the dark blue ghost that Pacman can eat.
The Bubble Bobble / Bust a Move fridge magnets are also a set of six, that feature four of the enemies (including the super scary invincible white ghost that comes to get you after a certain amount of time...if you played Bubble Bobble as a child, I'm sure you were pretty scared of him, too!), and the two dragon heroes (Bub and Bob).
All of the fridge magnets are completely stitched by hand and the back of the character is covered completely with felt to hide all of the stitches. Attached to the felt is a sturdy magnet, allowing you to use these on your fridge, your locker, or anywhere magnetic!
I hope you enjoyed viewing these as much as I enjoyed making them! More to come in the works...or if you have any requests, I can pretty much make any video game character, and I'm always happy to take custom orders! :)
The first one is this crochet Yoshi hat! Fits me perfectly, and it's super fun. There are red little spikes down the back, just like Yoshi has, and two eyes in the top of the hat. It is so adorable and I can't wait until it gets cooler outside so I can wear it!
Next, she made me a pouch/case for my Nintendo DS. It is a great little fabric case that my DS Lite fits into perfectly. It is great that she made this - Paul and I ended up with 3 DS Lites between the two of us (he got me the pink one for Christmas even though we both already had white ones) so we could definitely use a third case! It has two little spaces in the front where you can put games. And it has super cute heart fabric!
The third item that Ashley sent me is this awesome Toadette scarf! I wrote down in the survey that we had to fill out that Toadette is one of my favourite video game characters - Toadette rules. She is crazy and spunky, and this scarf perfectly captures the character! The fact that it is pink rules, since pink is my favourite colour. The yarn hair is fun and cute and the fact that she is winking is wonderful! :)
The fourth item that I received is this tote bag - which I must say, is such an original idea! Some of my favourite video games are Bubble Bobble and Bust a Move, both of which feature the dragons, Bub and Bob. Ashley used fabric paint to create Bub and sewed buttons to the bag to symbolize the bubbles that you try to bust in Bust a Move! So bright and colourful, lots of fun, and will be great to take to the store instead of using those wasteful plastic bags!
And the last item is this Mario zippered pouch. I always have a use for more zippered pouches, to carry make-up, to carry things in my purse or bag, and they're great to carry things on vacation. And anything with Mario & Donkey Kong on it rules! Ashley was nice enough to include 5 gifts instead of 4 in the package - what a sweetheart! She is a really talented crafter and I'm so happy that I got her as my swap partner! She also has an Etsy Shop, Oh That Ashley.
Hello! Just thought I would share a relatively new item in my shop - video game fridge magnets! They are
needlepoint with felt on the back and a sturdy magnet. They're pretty cute and fun, and I really enjoy making them! I'm also making computer floppy disks (3 1/2") as well in the memory of older style computers since these disks aren't really used anymore!
I'd also like to share an item that I purchased from the Etsy Shop, Danger Kitty Designs - this totally awesome Olive Celtic Cuff! It is reversible so it can be worn vinyl side up, or cotton side up. I've been wearing it with the cotton side up because it has an awesome pattern on it that needs to be seen!
Here are some more images of some of the needlepoint magnets that I have made. Hope you enjoy them! :)
