Thank you so much for sharing these. I just ran over to Etsy and ordered this book. ❤

[@LovePrey]

Mamamademinis patterns are the items I make the most ❤

[@thecozybuckeye]

They are really so darn cute! What is your favorite?

[@LovePrey]

@@thecozybuckeye my favorites are Hendrix Hippo and Dusty Dragon from the book at the moment and from their new plushies, Bunnie Rabbit and Beam Bear.

[@margaretswann6805]

Hi. I’m so glad I found your channel. I love all the Mama Made Minis book. I have made 3 Dino’s so far. I want to make the other patterns but when I make one someone sees it and wants a Dino too. lol. I look forward to my subscription to your channel because I need to learn how to embroider eyes. More and more mamas and Grandmas are asking for embroidered eyes for babies until 4.

[@thecozybuckeye]

Thank you so much for commenting and your support. I feel the same way about the eyes for the littles under 4. Have you found my tutorials for embroidering eyes?

[@oliviaedens7442]

I'm new to crochet, please can you advise how to start the body from the closed head? Is it just a slip knot then sc into both loops for each stitch in the circle? Then do you hide the yarn end? Not sure how to secure the yarn. Thanks!

[@Gabiimade]

Love these, I've been making and selling out of the dinos and the Della Duck from a different pattern, I've seen the book and you convinced me to buy it, so it arrived yesterday I'm very excited. I love your eyes I started doing and its a big hit.

[@Gabiimade]

Question, how much do you sell your loveys for ?

[@thecozybuckeye]

I love all of these too. I've sold a few for $45 - small and $50 for the large. I haven't sold them a lot at markets yet though so I will have to wait until the fall to really answer that more. I think I might put them on Etsy to see how they do since I took photos.

[@minini5571]

I can’t pick a favorite. They are all so stinkin’ cute!❤ Can’t wait for your market video!

[@thecozybuckeye]

I started editing so stay tuned!

[@QuiltedCupcake]

Love your creations! This is hands down my fav book purchase ever. The kindle version is my fav. ❤️🧁

[@thecozybuckeye]

I have an ipad. I should look into the kindle app for the ipad. But I do love collecting my crochet books to put on my shelf.

[@elainejackson7283]

Love the variegated yarn and the mini loveys, darn it, I love them all, you’re super talented

[@thecozybuckeye]

OMG! Thank you so much. I'm just a girl doing what I love. I have had soooo much practice you have no idea, lol.

[@Knottycrochetery]

I just ordered this book and I'm SOOOO EXCITED!

[@thecozybuckeye]

You’re going to love it!

[@Monakromedesigns]

This book has been in my cart for awhile now…you’re convincing me to take the plunge! Also I love your embroidered eyes!

[@thecozybuckeye]

Yes, go for it. You will not regret it! Thank you for watching my channel and your support! Much love!

[@shannonoliver5414]

Your loveys are so cute. I need to embroider the eyes on my Fawn but i’m nervous about it. I just need to do it. I really want to make the Dinosaur but i have the ugliest green from Premier Parfait Chunky. I may make it in blue like you did, i think. I also want to make the Yeti monster. Thank you for showing us your beautiful loveys. 😊

[@thecozybuckeye]

If you use the same method that I did on my bee in my embroidered eye tutorial the end result will be amazing. I bet that ugly green would be cute on a dinosaur with the right rainbow colors to go with it. They are all so much fun to make. Thank you so much for commenting and for watching my channel. Much love to you!

[@lisarobinson1149]

I have that book too. My granddaughter loves the unicorn I made from it.

[@thecozybuckeye]

I made my granddaughter the mini lamb and she HAS TO sleep with it every night.

[@stardustindy70]

I have this book on my wishlist. I have a birthday coming up next month and if someone asks what I want, it is definitely going to be this book! I love all of the different color combinations you did. They are absolutely adorable. I am loving your vlog as it is helping keep me inspired. I have been riding the crochet rollercoaster and really get frustrated when I lose my crojo. There is a Fall festival in my small rural town coming up in September. I have done it the last couple of years. I have done well at both and increased sales by double. I am hoping to have more variety in items and sizes, I just need to keep crocheting and not get ADHD from everything I am wanting to do. I have many WIPs that I need to finish and putting them on my list this week. Thank you for all that you do and looking forward to your next vlog.

[@thecozybuckeye]

Thank you so much! I appreciate your comment more than you know. I'm just a girl doing what I love. Crochet is literally the air that I breath. When I loose my crojo I try to make something new. I love trying new patterns to get inspiration. Watching KZbin helps me too. Seeing what everyone is making and getting new ideas is key! Much love to you!

[@diameexiongyang6706]

Love the dragon and the colors you used! I plan to make the dragon soon.

[@thecozybuckeye]

I made one recently that is green with blue and it is my favorite. I love the dragon and need to make more. Thank you for commenting and watching. Much love!

[@idalismathews1611]

I just got the book myself and can’t stop making them!!! I need to try the embroidered eyes now cause that’s so cute 🥰. I just finished the bunny and I don’t know what I did but it’s pretty big ! I love all the animals you can make and color variations you can do 😍😍😍 amazing work!

[@thecozybuckeye]

Thank you so so much. I haven’t stopped making these loveys yet. My bunny is rather large too, hmmm. Maybe it’s the ears, lol.

[@mandymejia7105]

I really like the mini dragon colors!! I am also from Cincinnati and frequent the zoo, but have not made the hippo. Love this book!! I don't sell any of mine, because I get too attached - but I don't know what do to with them!

[@thecozybuckeye]

Hello from Cinti! I have a collection of my own creations myself. I def know what you mean. There is nothing wrong with that. But if you want to sell them you probably could?

[@mandymejia7105]

@@thecozybuckeye I think they are beautiful and could definitely sell ❤️

[@deborahsiegwarth7132]

I bought this book and love it! I've made frog, duck, elephant, fox, monkey, and bunny so far. I'm also using your embroidered eyes for mine. ❤

[@thecozybuckeye]

Wonderful! I love hearing you are using the embroidered eyes. I love them so much. I do love this book, but I guess you can tell.

[@MimiMakesKeepsakes]

Love, love, MMM!! The Lil Dino is always my favorite! 💚

[@thecozybuckeye]

Me too! I know you have made a lot of them too. Just curious how they sell for you at markets? I took them to my market this past weekend for the first time, but it was raining so it wasn't the best. Unfortunately. I need to go watch more of your videos! Much love to you!

[@MimiMakesKeepsakes]

@@thecozybuckeye Hey! They sell pretty good. A lot of times they are for baby gifts. I need to make more. Have fun and I wish you the best at your marker!!✌️🏻🤟🏻🧶

[@thecozybuckeye]

@@MimiMakesKeepsakes thank you! 😊

[@user-jm7bk8ri9k]

Hi April, I loved the video, I was fabulous. Like you I love them all. I bought the book the first time I saw it and have had it for a while now. They are so cute and the mini ones are even more gorgeous, just the right size for little peeps. I think the colours you have chosen are great and that has given me more idea's for the ones I will make. I think the tutorial for the eyes is a super idea and I'd definitely tune in. I hope things settle down for you and your family are getting well. I'm sending you a cyber hug to see you through the hard bits (0) Love n hugs from Scotland, Sheila x

[@thecozybuckeye]

Hey Sheila, I just love the internet! Thanks for the hug!! I love that I can make friends all the way in Scotland, lol. As you can tell I really enjoyed this book. These loveys are so fun to make as you know. Right now, I am trying the dino plush from MMM. Things in life are settling for me. Thank you so much for your support! Much love! April

[@awestruckcrochet]

This book is one of my favorites to pick up and crochet from. I do find myself crocheting the mini sizes that are from their website though more often.

[@thecozybuckeye]

I do too. I love them all, but the mini's are great! They are much quicker. I love your channel, btw. Thank you for watching mine!

[@lindasakseide282]

Love the cow, the unicorn and the dinosaurs. You know that I love them hehe...😉

[@thecozybuckeye]

Me too!! I think the dino is my favorite, but the unicorn comes in a close second. The cow is cute, but honestly i need to make a solid brown one. I hate all of the color changes, lol.

[@mynameisamygee9545]

I have the kindle version to use my tablet. Favorites are cow and dino but I love the mouse from the minis the most! It is so cute!

[@thecozybuckeye]

I guess I’ll have to try the mouse now! Thanks!

[@mightymia10]

I hope they sold well last weekend, can't wait for your market vlog! I have this book and love it too! I've made a dragon, unicorn, bunny and the goose which I modified to be a flamingo and working on a monkey. I also made their mini lion. They're all so cute!

[@thecozybuckeye]

The flamingo is a great idea!! My market was very soggy, eeeek. I am currently editing as we speak. So stay tuned!

[@jema8192]

I have the book. One day (soon I hope) I will make them. Yours are adorable ❤️

[@thecozybuckeye]

What are you waiting for? Start one today, lol. Thank you so much for your comment and for watching. It means more than you know.

[@stephaniecordova5218]

Love them all ❤

[@thecozybuckeye]

Thank you!

[@kimethaturner152]

those eyes you do look so good.

[@thecozybuckeye]

Thank you so much. I did a tutorial on my eyes if you haven't seen it, go check it out! I appreciate you watching my channel and for your support! Much love!

[@paulac812]

Bought this book and making my 1st one…..the Dino………am I the only one having a problem tying a knot in the legs…..lol…

[@thecozybuckeye]

No, it’s a magical skill, lol.

[@MoniqueinCanada]

I have and love this book. I do much prefer the bunny from Etsy with the backpack though. I use the book’s bunny head to make a mouse 🐭

[@thecozybuckeye]

What is this backpack you speak of? OMG a mouse? I need a picture. I want to see this, lol.

[@MoniqueinCanada]

@@thecozybuckeye it's the MINI Honey Bunny Knotted Lovey :) I don't know how to get a pic of my mouse to you though

[@jenniferowens1346]

I am from Cincinnati as well. Yes Fitz and Fiona are a love of us all. I was curious about the “Buckeye” part of your name. I am a Buckeyes girl from Lancaster. I am in love with the lovies

[@thecozybuckeye]

Hello my fellow Buckeye friend. It’s a small world. Thank you so much for commenting and watching. The loveys are so cute!

[@marylaskey8147]

Hi April I also bought the book haven't made any yet do you have a video on how you mAke your tags

[@thecozybuckeye]

Hello and thank you so much for watching. You are going to love making these loveys. Unfortunately, I do not have a video on the tags. I have a friend who made them for me, but he does not sell them yet. You can buy similar tags on Etsy. Happy Crocheting!

[@jackied2518]

Is there 2 books or just the 1 ?

[@amandabottoms1]

I still follow Fiona!!❤

[@thecozybuckeye]

Thank you so much!!

[@rockpunkster]

I believe it's pronounced ami-ga-roomy ❤

[@thecozybuckeye]

Thank you for that. I don't know why that word is so dang hard for me to say, lol. I'm literally going to put this on my wall and practice it, haha. I'm sorry if it annoyed you! My bad! Thank you for watching my channel and for your support! Much love!

[@Pocketsnuggies]

These are beautiful. Can I ask how much you would charge for some thing like those at the market?

[@thecozybuckeye]

So far for the size in the book I have been charging $50. I love these patterns so much. They are so fun to make. Thank you so much for your question and for supporting my channel.

do you have a tutorial on the embroidered eyes?

hi i bought the book but i cant tie the legs how did you do it? i undid the whole feet and legs and made them short without the knot and had to end up stuffing the whole dino help any suggestions ?

[@thecozybuckeye]

I'll try to add it to a vlog soon.

[@LeeAnnahsCreations]

Where did you have your tags made? I have fabric labels, but I really like your tags!

[@thecozybuckeye]

Funny story. A family friend bought a laser to start a business and I guess doesn’t enjoy it, who knows I’ve tried to get him to sell the tags. It hasn’t worked yet.

[@LeeAnnahsCreations]

@@thecozybuckeye Aww. that's a shame

[@thecozybuckeye]

@@LeeAnnahsCreations I know

[@marylaskey8147]

How do you make your tags

[@thecozybuckeye]

I order them from a friend, and he has yet to create a listing for anyone else. I'm working on him. I believe there are other companies on Etsy who make the same thing. Thank you for your question. Have a great day!

[@phyllisgrant5188]

Quick question. Is the book using the minis at the end too or are those just on Etsy from maker? I love love love the little ones!!!!

[@thecozybuckeye]

The minis I purchased individually on Etsy. I linked them in the description. I love love love them too, lol. ❤️ Thank you for the question.

[@phyllisgrant5188]

@@thecozybuckeye great! Thanks. I watched on the tv, had to jump to phone to ask. I’ll check out links. I’m not techy to find on the tv🤦🏻‍♀️

[@thecozybuckeye]

@@phyllisgrant5188 I don’t think you can from the tv, lol.

[@TraceyJHenson]

Where do you buy your shop tags from?

[@thecozybuckeye]

A friend that has yet to create a listing on Etsy. I’ll work on him, lol!

[@MelissaBurkett-b6x]

Can a beginner make these?

[@thecozybuckeye]

You can certainly try. I'm not sure how much of a beginner you are. If you don't know a stitch you can look it up on KZbin. That's how I learned to read patterns.

[@tnhan9692]

How can i buy your charts? I live in VietNam

[@thecozybuckeye]

I have an Etsy shop. The link is in my bio.

[@LeeAnnahsCreations]

11:38 -- The bunny is adorable, but I think what might be contributing to the Kangaroo vibe is the long neck. Real bunnies don't have much of a neck - at least not visibly.

[@thecozybuckeye]

That sounds about right!

[@LeeAnnahsCreations]

Have you found the Panda Bear instructions to be faulty like Brianna Lentz has? I am waiting for my book to arrive and I'm eager to get started... Brianna's video has trigger anxiety for me about having clear instructions in the book. Can you please help? Brianna Lentz video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iGGkhayAebOZl5osi=cbGIDZu89oGoT7Tw

[@thecozybuckeye]

I haven’t made the panda, but I have had zero problems with any of the MMM patterns. I will watch her video & see what she is talking about later this week.

[@LeeAnnahsCreations]

@@thecozybuckeye That is so good to hear! Thank you

[@LeeAnnahsCreations]

@@thecozybuckeye With the price of the yarn and personal effort to make the knotted loveys, what price would you put on the finished item?
