helcat1639 asked me what the photo in my banner was supposed to be... and my dear sweet husband and friend Leslie told me that I needed to make a sock monkey post.
Here's the original photo:
It's Henrietta the Sock Monkey helping me sew on my 1960's era Husqvarna "Greenie" sewing machine.
I made her awhile ago, so here are a couple of my newest creations.
Joey the Baby Monkey:
This guy still needs a name, but there's a definite 80's vibe going on if you ask me!
So much so that Martijn told me I needed to make some leg warmers! I couldn't stop at leg warmers alone, so I had to make wrist bands and a sweatband for it's head too.
Any good ideas for names?
Also, if you think of any other good questions, be sure to go ask them!! The button below will magically transport you back to you can comment there.

I LOVE your monkeys! I think Richard might be a good name for the 80's one. Love the pictures.
Goodness...I so LOVE these!
The 80's guy/gal immediately made me think of Cyndi Lauper. So, maybe "Cyndi", "Lauper" or "Justwannahavefun"??? :o)
Then, I thought of..."FAME!"
