Making Things At The Nelson
I think the main thing we made was a mess! But the nice chaps in there were very nice to us, and let us take over the back part of the pub with our chopped up socks and piles of felt. A few shadies were had, and a couple of characters brought to life. Rex was constructing a 3D effigy of his famous Grip Wrench (Hollywood Hardman) character, complete with awesome stuffed quiff. Cookie was sketching away doodling ideas for a tshirt range. And Jay was creating an athletic looking striped monster. A good night was had by all!

Hi Nicky,
Jus pop by to say thanks for sharing your monster-munch toys and making sock toy reference. Your stuff is the 1st one to inspire me to make one and gradually creating my own design. I just wish to share more of my toys with you.

Hey Gladys. Very nice of you indeed to pop by and let me know :) Really happy to hear that you had a go with the instructions and had fun!
You have some lovely characters on your blog. I must try those uniqlo socks. They look like they have a good smooth surface.
I joined your monster sock fan club on facebook too :)
