Sugarplum Monsters







New sugarplum Monsters. I am simplifying their design. Sometimes simple is better. I am using new fabric for these. Sometimes I need to work with new fabric because of my inspiration. Also I am showing how I am packaging them. I love adding a bit of pink fluff !

Fritz Sugarplum Monster



Fritz is a sugarplum monster. That's what I am calling my elven capped monsters in candy colors.

Things to come...



if I can manage to take a decent photo. :D
These are some of the little sugarplums I am working on. They don't all have stuffed heads yet, but I love the color.

New works soon

I have a whole new colorful bunch coming soon. I am inspired by Christmas now. Not just red and green, but all of the candy colors of The Nutcracker and holiday illustrated childrens books. A wonderland of color. Funny how I don't have any pics though, :D. Today I am going out hunting for fabrics and goodies.
November is going to be a hard working month, I can't believe Christmas is around the corner!!

Fun Blog...Gloomy Sunday




Oh, I love these old covers :) Plus I used to read Victoria Holt! :D Lots of gloomy weather, gloomy houses, gloomy moors. Perfect!
I added the link to the side.

I made them a story




These are Monsters Finnigan and Toulouse.
Monster Finnigan met Monster Toulouse in one of Paris's underground tunnels. It was in that dank dark place that Finiggan told Toulouse how he came to lose his left leg. And from then on both had become inseparable.

MOnster Finnigan comes with a spool :D

Mine all mine


I'm almost out of this particular fabric that lined a handmade jacket that I have been using for some of my plushes. It's my favorite! I figure that I should start making some mini plushes for me to keep, because I am thrilled when they sell but I miss some of them!! :D It will give me a reason to make little box houses for them to hang. To hang in this future studio that I keep hoping for, ha! So I made this wee one. I haven't named her or dreamed up a story for her yet.
