i will definatly put a piccy of the witch up when she is done. she is on my blog part finished, think she is missing an arm and ears!!!

Your latest 2 are so cute! i love the watch and the little bags.

pennib

nuttbabe cant see your witch on your blog...or is it me?
I do like making little things for the monkeys....I see that your's are well dressed and looking smart!

nuttybabe

Edited to get rid of link to blog!!! sorry, forgot we arent allowed to put them on the posts!!

i love dressing the monkey and giving them a theme/personality. although i have made 2 pink ones that look like boys so not sure what to do with them!!! will put a piccy up when i have finished the second one (hopefully later).

pennib

Yes I can see now.....new glasses I think. She looks suitable fierce haha
Why do you think the pink ones look like boys? Can't they be turned in girls
with lots of pink fluffy bits :0)

nuttybabe

i really dont know why but i just think they look like boys. Here is the finished one.



and i did a little more on the witch last night. She now has hair!!

pennib

Aww.... he/she could be either, depends which way you dress it. Its got a sweet little face.
Witchy is coming along....although you are wishing the months away....we havnt had summer yet!!!!

nuttybabe

i am just trying to be organised as i dont really want to be up at 12.30am on 1st October finishing her off like i was with Otis the elf sock monkey on 1st December!!!! :P and then again on 23rd December making dh's newcastle sock monkey for the xmas eve hamper!!! :P

Well, here is the other one that looks like a boy but pink. i think its the eyes. usually i use safety eyes but running now on them to using sew on googly eyes.



i like his/her mouth. i used chain stitch and am quite impressed with it. will do a few like this i think.

pennib

No what you mean about ast minute stuff!
He/she is sweet. I think its a she myself, put a necklace on and hey presto!! The mouth is looking good as well.
Not seen sew on google eyes before.
