Sock monkeys!

stardrops42; Lovely monkey....how's the cake decorating going?

Sophief333; Wow you've nearly finished. All the monkeys have different characteristics so you will have to match that up with a name! Also depends if its for a bloke or girl.

Thunderbird; Nice to see a different type of sockie, well done

Thanks pennib, I've put the cake decorating on hold for a while. I've just changed jobs and had loads of other stuff going on and just couldn't fit everything in:eek: Problem is that I have too many interests and not enough time:D

pennib

Yep Stardrops, I know what you mean I have the same problem....need more time (or less projects!)

56 Shelley! Wow! How long do you take to make them? I only have one left to do now

Shelley3774

I started making them quite a few years back and then it took about 8 hrs lol but fortunately with a lot of practice it now takes about 2 hrs!! As you can imagine I have been completely stressed out trying to get them all finished for customers before Christmas plus trying to be a mum and wife - fortunately I have had a month off work but still working 12 hrs a day on them lol!!! I really need to rest now x
