Making Things Club Night





Last night, Nicky, Cookie, Rex and I all met up behind Columbia Road in a small pub called the Nelson's Head, where they had saved a big table for us tucked away at the back. It was a really great venue and I am sure we will be going there again. Everyone was full of industry making various things. I made a new monster!





I had some trouble deciding on his face though. The options seemed to have a great effect upon his emerging personality, but here he is!

Hi There
I just wanted to ask you a question as im wanting to attempt to make my very first sock monkey... Do you put it all together with a sewing machine or do you hand stitch it all?

You can do either. If you're going to give it to a child then I'd recommend a sewing machine.

I usually sew all the bits on a machine as it's so quick, then I cut them out, stuff them and stitch them on by hand.
