Which is more gorgeous, the flower or the shawl or the lady?

The award winning photo above is all about me, plain and simple, plus  the wonders of nature in the outdoors.  😆  Thanks,  Crochet Nation , for the inspiration. I had some delightful fun posing for that silly photo, with my first silly hat. And my brother wins the award for most patient old Army guy in the galaxy. Here are several more photos that he so professionally took for me: photo contest .

Every piece was a learning curve for me, and a little adventure. This was my first time doing amigurumi, and now I'm all in. 😎 So grateful to the mother of the groom, my New Orleans cousin, Linda, for the design inspiration on this theme. Thanks to the Swamp Wedding, I have learned so much making these cute critters, it has taken my crochet skills to the next level. 🤩 Two helpful books got me started: Here's some pics of the patterns: amigurumi patterns The first thing I made was a silly hat for the bride and groom.
