Mini Bot

The aforementioned robot creature caused some issues between the youngest of my brood, so I made a Mini Bot from a baby sock for my two-year-old.

Yes, the robot does have a mohawk.

Sewing by Desperation

I haven't successfully made it downstairs to my workshop since I broke my foot.  I'm stir crazy . . . to say the least.

So I made one of my boys the "creature" I told him I make a year ago. Somehow, it took a robot turn. Imagine that.

Do you see the worry in the robot's face? It's almost as if he knows what's in store for him.

Day 127 - Red Robot

New 8" stuffed robot.  I like his "mismatched" feet and pocket mouth.  I may do some tweaking later, but this is as good as it gets right now.

Day 111 - Crash, Jr.

Once you make one and a child claims it, you have to make another and another and another.  This little robot is made from a baby sock.  My five-year-old named him Crash Jr.

A whopping 4 1/2" tall!

Day 106 - Robot/Monster/Chicken

I tried something crazy.  I sewed and made my own stuffed robot.  I guess my exceptional craftsmanship with the tote bag inspired me.

I know it's hard to believe, but I made this!  (Stop snickering--it does not look like a 6-year-old made it!)

I used some old sweat pants (with orange cargo pocket) my boys had outgrown. I then cut out the body and legs, etc. and sewed the whole thing by hand inside out. I added cut up fuzzy blue socks for arms and some glove fingers for the hair.

The best part is that his mouth opens so you can hid stuff in him!  Woo-hoo! (One of my boys kept putting random things in there and having the robot puke them out.  Boys.)

My second oldest has named him Crash and deemed him his now. The only problem is he keeps calling him a monster or a chicken. I have to keep telling him it's a robot . . . obviously!
