    I just want to say a BIG Thankyou to you all on here for introducing me to the world of Sock Monkeys - its FAB :)

    I finally put up the courage today to join up. Since reading this forum I have bought the book 'Stray Sock Sewing' & fallen in love with the world of sock creatures, I may have gone a little mad in the Jan sales buying socks!

    I'm not sure how to post images or links on here yet so any help would be great :) but if you go to my blog you'll beable to see what I've made so far.

    I so want to make more but my Kitchen & Bathroom need decorating 1st so I must resist...I must! lol

    Your sock creations are fantastic!! I am especially fond of the one your hubbie claimed! Hes a treasure.

    Im dead jealous of your new fabric for the kitchen cushions too its soo sweet.

    thanks.

    i have just looked at your blog. my kids would love the dinosaur one! and all your other stuff looks amazing! Really loving the chocolate cakes as well!! :drool:

    To put a picture on here i save the picture to www.photobucket.com and then you go into share and then link code and it will give you the link to copy and paste onto here for the picture under the bulletin boards and forums bit. does that make sense?
  • nuttybabe - Thanks :D Many thanks too on the advice with pics, I will give it a try later, maybe when kiddies have gone to bed :D
