the pony journey

so, Christmas is only 60 some odd days away(!!!!holyfrick) so i decided now would be a good time to start on Christmas presents.
so i started with ...the pony. DUN DUN DUN!
i did NOT think it would take this long.
so my aunt is a n avid my little pony fan, so i decided to find out what her favorite pony was and make a little miniature.
not too hard right?
so i learned that baby licorice was high on her list:
there she is...so.. lovely,
but then i learned that IF she would have a pony made for her it would be blue.
so with that little bit 'o info i set off on my journey
i found the Adorable little ponys on etsy that would be PERFECT!

but ya know, they were like 45 freaking dollars!
so i decided to make my own pattern!! :D it will be awesome right!!?

NO! looks like a friggin giraffe!
so i try using an actual pattern,IT is surprisingly VERY hard to come by a free my little pony pattern,
but i find this:

looks promising right?
NOPE
geeze what did i do wrong????!!!
its frightening! so defeated and with sore fingers i come apon the HOLY GRAIL
the light at the end of the tunnel, it cute, looks simple,I CAN DO THIS!:

and i do, and its adorable and i LOVE IT
now im gonna give it up to go live in chilly Michigan with my aunt :( oh well
here it is:

it took about an hour and is soo simple!
i may make more :3

Side note: all of this failer was hard on a girl, so i took some time off the big projects and made these cuties!

i found a pattern for the giraffe and made the horse ones up. the one on the right was the first one, lol its facing backwards.

thanks you for reading, and suffering from my Grammar, bye!
