Monkeying Around!!!




Wow it has taken me some time but I have finally finished making the Monkey for Madi. I showed her the one that Nicole made and she loved it and wanted me to make her one. Let me say, its pretty nerve raking to have somone standing over your sholder waiting for you to sew them a Monkey. Madi could hardly wait for me to finish. I messed up, I didn't realize that the body was to be made out of the print material to become the shirt of the monkey, so when I finished I realized we had a shirtless monkey on our hands. Needless to say I was making a shirt for her to wear. It really was fun to make and not to hard either. I look forward to my next project....If I find one and if Nicole lets me use her machine again. Thanks Nicole!!


P.S. Nicholas was playing with the monkey and already lost one shoe.....I guess she must be a cinderella monkey!!

Hey I'm impressed--so far I only sew things that involve just straight lines. I think I like it better with a seperate shirt that she wears--looks a little more normal. And here's where Nicole wants to rip my throat out and see the monkey I made. ;)

Jenny, she turned out so cute, I love it! I love the the little shirt that you made for it too! You and Maddie did a great job. Do as many projects as you'd like, I don't need the machine back anytime soon. Ok, now I'm off to rip out Aubrey's throat :)!
