Amigurumi Love Birds Reviewed by Lindsey Sedlar on 2009-10-13
I don't think that this is a great picture of what the birds look like when you are done because the head is HUGE on the birds! They are still really cute, but I was just a tiny bit disappointed. Also make sure to pay attention when sewing the wing on! Look how in this picture they look like they could flap!
