Need that special something for someone? Need to laugh during these times? Perhaps a handmade fabric monster is the thing!
Sweater Monsters
It might be too late for the Halloween just past, but you are certainly in plenty of time for next Halloween if you start now! The sweater monsters that Sheila and I designed for a prior issue of Make-It-Yourself Magazine were blogged about…and this time with free pattern instructions. So gather up those monsters parts and get sewing!
Seriously, this is a face anyone could love!
MIY Monsters – The Cutest Monsters EVER!
Monster! Monster!
It must be a theme. Upcycled sweater monsters. Clay workshop monsters. Who knew?
If you haven’t been inspired to make the previous projects I made for MIY Magazine; the coffee cozy or the pillow, THIS might be the project for you. And with Halloween coming up, what better time? Although these guys are good to have around all year round. What great gifts for the little ones!
I made the one sitting on the chair and Sheila Sinclair Snyder of License to Quilt made the one on the floor. I’m thinking by now they’ve bonded during their stay at MIY corporate headquarters, but too bad….because as soon as they come back to us they are going to be split up to go to separate homes. Not worry! I’m going to make a few more so my little monster guy has some buddies.
So don’t forget to get your Fall/Winter 2014 issue of MIY Magazine. You will be hooked on these crazy good craft ideas.
Happy crafting!
