I first got into crocheting and sewing when I was 7 years old. It all started with my grandma, who taught me the art of knitting. Then, I studied sewing at school during those hands-on labor lessons.

I love adorable animals and children. My toys often remind me of my youngest daughter, Arina. Also, my eldest daughter, Katya, draws a postcard for each toy. I find that to be very cute.

When it comes to my favorite animals, I have a soft spot for wombats, capybaras, and guinea pigs. I want to create toy versions of these charming creatures in the future. I also love fantasy creatures!

I love the entire process of creating these toys! My favorite type of work is decorating and completing the image. I consider a photoshoot to be a challenging stage; it's difficult to convey just how cute the toys are in reality.
