CraftyClubhouse: Frankentoy Workshop

Sunday we had a Frankentoy workshop outside Tugboat's North Sea House. Inspired by various DIY monster plush movements and the wonderful ReToyed Trash community workshops of artist Alicia Talikowska in Leeds....we had to try some group toymaking ourselves. We all contributed old clothes to cut up and fabrics and buttons and all sorts of odds and ends and let ourselves loose-what fun!

Here's my monsterpuppet in progress (gift for my nephew)...one of my softest socks but who knows where the pair is so...sockpuppet it becomes!
