I love Japanese craft

Here is the kumihimo braid I made. I used a foam marudai that I bought in the $2 shop ages ago. It's really easy to do and very therapeutic.

This little elephant card is based on a pattern in the Ondori 'Lovable Mini Dolls' book. I bought this book about 20 years ago and almost passed it over as it was 7 quid. Glad I splashed out. I've made a few of the dolls and adapted lots of the patterns to make cards.
