Monster blog hop

When Joan announced earlier in the year that people could sign up for her and Carol’s blog hops at one time, I signed up for them all!

I’m not really a Halloween person, but this year my kids are going to a fall fest at our church and my two youngest have costumes! (I’ll show those later)

Now back to this hop, I thought I had plenty of time, then suddenly it was a week away, yikes… I had NOTHING!!

So I put my thinking cap on last weekend and figured I could probably find a pincushion design or an embroidery file with a monster on it, I found one on embroidery garden!

a monster softie file and it’s FREE!

so I figured I’d try it out and decided to use cotton instead of fleece and set up my 5×7 hoop and got to work, Anja helped pick the embroidery thread colors.

First the eyes

then more details on the eyes

then the mouth

and then added the back and stuffed it and VOILA! Isn’t he ugly, I mean cute??

Sonja named him Booger

Say HI Booger!!

He’s being shy I guess…..

If you haven’t already, hop over to the other participants of this hop!

  1. The monster softie is so cute – even if it has 3 eyes!! Both of the examples are great. Super project.

  2. What a fun softie. I love him. Nice of him to help you out of your timing issue too.
