Three dolls - one green suede Zen face doll, tongue out & eyes open! And two Heart Pandas, one slightly larger than the other, but both ready to be thrown and hugged. All are now available on Etsy......
Two more tote bags, this time monstrous! Both are heart monsters, one is purple striped, the other blue velvet. Psycho eyes? Singing teeth? Who knows what is going on, I chalk it up more to my late night sewing skills than gurgles of a subsconscious that needs investigation. ...
It was a great day out at the South Side Works yesterday, warming weather, delicious chili from the Tin Front Cafe in Homestead, and lots of dolls dolls dolls. I am still exhausted, but my hands aren't too bloody or clawed -- plus my Charlie Batch doll is ...
More simple faces, more tongue! Though I gave into mouthpiece-ear-limb temptations. And then there's the plaid, rescued from a Cape Cod skirt, to go with the pink bathrobe that has gone into the tongue....
Time for some minimalist dolls. Two eyes, ...

I sold most of these monsters at the Belfast and Dublin shows back in June, and I never properly documented them before they left me. A lot of them were pocket sized, made out of QFT Lost & Found hats and scarves. Others were from huge bags of underused clothing ...
Thanks to God's Helping Hand's bounty of weird fabric remnants, I made off with two luxurious swatches of white furry fabric. So finally I found a good use for it: A Monster Mirror! Also known as a Cat Mirror, as it was interpreted by many of ...
I made this little creature out of some God's Helping Hand furry fabric -- Thank You Michigan! He is the model for the new, improved, illustrious (and Illustrated) Make Your Own Monster pattern. You want it, you want to make a monster, and he is here to show ...
The sale went well at the I Made It! market (junior edition) at Pittsburgh's Children Museum. The Steelers lost, but it seems most of Pittsburgh still watched. I had covered most things with Masked Avengers and Silver Capes, and I spent too much time constructing a Make A ...
And he's in his natural habitat: THE PHD BEDROOM! [gallery link="file" columns="5" orderby="rand"] I made him in Belfast, and endowed him to Julia, who endowed him to Mairead. I think he is my favorite monster ever! He was born (like so many other monsters) out of the sad but bountiful Lost & ...
