World amigurumi exhibition - Lutka na izložbi

Japanski kulturni centar RESOBOX u New Yorku, u sklopu predstavljanja amigurumi umjetnika iz cijeloga svijeta koji sudjeluju na izložbi World amigurumi exhibition vol. 2, objavio je na svojoj facebook stranici i ovu moju lutku. U skladu s temom izložbe, lutka ima obilježja sredine iz koje dolazi, odnosno torbicu inspiriranu motivom hrvatskog grba. Djevojčica je skupa sa još dvadesetak mojih amigurumija već dva mjeseca u New Yorku, a evo sad se napokon sjetila poslati fotku!



This beauty is from country of #Croatia! This#amigurumi wears a purse that is inspired by the Croatian national coat of arms; it consists of one main shield and five smaller shields that represent the five different historical regions which form a crown over the main shield! Red and white squares are a common feature in Croatia, especially on Croatian athletes' uniforms!

Artist: Pletionica - heklane torbice i nakit (https://www.etsy.com/shop/Pletionica

Country: Croatia
You can find this amigurumi friend and more at RESOBOX's World Amigurumi Exhibit vol. 2 going on now: http://resobox.com/?p=17527
