Teeny Weeny Sock Monster


The feet.  If I do this again I might try to find a way to separate them a little more.


I was smart enough to only cut one piece at a time, then braid and cut again otherwise I think it would have been messy.


Totally cheesy and ridiculous (I think my niece would have done a nicer job) on the otherhand it took me in total less than 30 minutes.


And she really loves it.  She kept talking to it tonight...saying it's okay baby. 
 I made a monster doll thing tonight.  I was excited to make this for quite some time, but I'm a little disappointed I wasn't more patient and did the feet and face a little nicer.  I just used fabric paint and was really impressed with my eyes and then completely botched the whole face with the silly mouth.  My daughter loves it though and I got to let her help in painting the body decorations.  This was very easy and would be a great project for a child, well an older child at least 6 probably for them to really enjoy it.  I actually used a puppy tutorial but when all I could find was my toe socks I decided to do a monster.  Plus, I already had experience with monsters, exceptionally enjoying the freedom of monster creativity so I went with it.
