'Project Babygro' - A monster workshop in progress

I am having SO much fun working on Project Babygro. Remember the babygro's my cousin has asked me to turn into monsters for his kids?
I must admit I felt the weight of responsibility on my shoulders taking a very sharp pair of scissors to such special garments but once I overcame that little psychological hurdle I have been going great guns. One is almost complete and the other is fully formed in my head (although I must admit I have almost filled a sketch book with preliminary drawings to make sure they are absolutely right).

If these go well and Mummy and Daddy monster like them then I will maybe think about offering this kind of thing as a service to the public. Exciting yes?.....

Fur and Feathers - A new Fashion House is Born

Check out what Mr Monster and I got up to yesterday!

We bought a £20 charity shop jacket and then spent six happy hours together adding brocade, contrast fabric and safety pin details and changing the buttons. We were really happy with the results and got LOADS of compliments on it last night when he wore it out.

Hmmmm..............is Mr Monster starting to remind you of someone?!

Belinda, The Fairy Goth-Mother





Look who just fluttered up to my bedroom window! Mr Monster grabbed his camera whilst she told me her story. Her name is Belinda, she is as mischievous as she is magical. One wave of her magic wand and chaos is sure to follow (speaking of her wand, it is entirely hollow and usually full of sherbet). She prides herself in coming to the aid of downtrodden maidens looking for their prince by way of her websitewww.charmingoralarming.com. However.....her matchmaking skills leave much to be desired and she is currently third in the list of the most common reasons for divorce, behind never having seen Blade Runner and buying tickets for Jedward in concert.
