Sock Monkey Tutorial

Still got sock-monkeys on my mind. I found a step-by-step picture tutorial to make them. I would embroider the eyes so they'd be safe for the little ones.

Ah, I like the sock monkey! It makes me want to sew one for my 7 month old baby. I agree with you that the eyes should be sewn on for safety reasons. Thanks for posting the link to the tutorial. I enjoyed browsing through your blog.

I love sock monkeys! I bought a sock monkey kit for my dd years ago, she wanted to make it herself. Well, she became busy with school, etc. and never finished it. I said I could finish it for her. Well, I think now is a good time to dig that kit up and finish that poor monkey.

These pants look great on him and they are stretch twill! Yay! I had picked up some black and brick-colored knit collars at The Place That Sells Sewing Machines but now I have olive-colored pants...what to do? Here's what: I'm going to try and find matching olive knit or woven material to use on the work shirt placket and (maybe) collar! How coordinated he will be! Oddly, dh doesn't seem as excited about this as I am....

Narrow Back and Full Hips

There's a thread on Pattern Review about fitting a narrow back and a full bum. That's exactly what I have! I think these alterations are going to prove very helpful: Els' swayback and rounded upper back alteration Debfxvt57's full-hip adjustment I won't need to alter for a rounded upper back for myself, but anything I made for my older daughter would need it, so I'm glad to have found it.
