{a special monkey blanket}

This little blanket was so fun. Janice wanted a security blanket with a monkey attached for her little one. So I used a cute monkey pattern from Melly & Me and attached it to a little blanket that I made from scratch.

I love how it turned out and really wish I was sewing these when my kids were little.

If you'd like to order a custom made animal security blanket like this, head over to my Etsy Shop and you can send me a message if you don't find what you'd like and request something different.

{a new Mitch the monkey}

This is Mitch. I made my first Mitch the Monkey several years ago for my son. He was one of the very first stuffed animals I'd ever made. 

He had crazy eyes, but this one was a custom request from Brian M. for a Mitch with regular eyes and I like how this one turned out much better than the crazy eyes.

You can order a custom Mitch the Monkey or many other toys over in my Etsy Shop.

Mitch is made using a pattern from Funky Friends Factory.

{chloe the sock monkey crochet doll}

I just finished this sweet little girl this morning.  How cute is she?  My kids have already put their request in for the stuffed animals they want for Christmas, some want sewn ones and some want crochet ones. 

 

 

 

 

 

This doll is available in my Etsy shop, however if you'd like to order a doll similar to this, but with different colors head over to my shop and place a custom order. I will try to find colors as close to what you request as possible.  Please note that I cannot guarantee that I can find exactly what you would like, but I will do my best.

{"banana" the monkey}

I made this cute little guy for my son, Spencer, for Christmas.  He didn't get quite enough stuffing, but he's still cute.  He named him Banana!

Banana was made from a Funky Friends Factory pattern.  I love her patterns!  She has a tutorial on how to make these googly eyes, so I had to try them.  I tried them on Caden's Crazy Cat first and used the eye pattern piece as a guide and downsized it to make "Banana's" eyes.  So cute!

If you would like to purchase a monkey like this they are $25 (+ shipping, if applicable).  Custom orders take 10-14 days + shipping time.   Visit my Etsy shop and request a custom order.  These would be a great Christmas or Birthday present for your little child or grandchild.
