Monsters and a Giveaway

Remember the picture of Brett being attacked by monsters? Well, those were what I made for Hayden's monster themed party. I didn't really do much other than have a monster Evite and make these softies. Oh... there was also a small monster on the cake.

Anyways, the monsters were lots of fun to make. They are all basically the same but their facial expressions are slightly different. I used fleece for the body and felt for the face. Everything is machine-stitched on.

Here is a picture of my Monster Army.


Hayden had a great time playing with all the monsters. I put them all in his crib and let him hug and kiss them. He also really enjoyed rolling around on them.




Then I let the girl join in and the two monsters, together with the 15 fleece monsters really went to town.




So, as a BlogLand celebration of my little monster's first birthday, I would like to give away a yellow fleece monster. If you would like this happy monster, please leave a comment on this post and include some way for me to contact you between now and Sunday Nov 30th. This is my first giveaway and I am a pretty unknown blog, yours maybe the only comment. :-) If there is more than one comment, I will pick one at random.

Have a good monstrous week!

Hi Yetta!
Jan gave me the link to your blog.. It's so fun and interesting! I'm having a great time looking at all the pictures of the kids and watching the adorable videos! I also enjoyed reading your posts about the pillows you made for us (we LOVE them, by the way!). You've definitely inspired me to get back into sewing.
