great job on the godzilla. the the shape of the frame too.
but these hooplas are one of my most favorite things ever on LC. why have i never thought to felt this way? you’ve inspired me to try it. I love her eyes so much.
and of course, the yip yip’s. how’d i get so lucky?
I posted on the threads but I will comment here too. @JoyfulClover - I love all your items. The Godzilla is a very cool design and I love the frame. It fits the pattern perfectly. The Yip yips are so cute. I love that they are so whimsical yet useful. A quality I adore. Your felted hoops are magnificent. I love your style. Octavia looks insane in the best way possible and Ortwin is a complete gentle giant. I can see him living in a mystical forest.
@Magpie - I can’t believe you created your own paper piecing! That is incredible and it turned out amazing! I love them both. And your monster oven mitt is so funny. I love that huge mouth! I would puppet talk him every time I got something out of the oven. Ha!
@geekgirl - Poor little Owlbert. LOL! His story cracked me up. He looks so determined and cute. Nothing is getting him down, not even that tail. LOL! He’s adorable.
@Kwality570 - Epic. Just Epic! I love seeing so many monsters in one place and knowing that you are keeping them makes it 10x’s better. They are so cool and fun. And the butterfly monster! Eeps! I love those wings! Truly outdid yourself lady.
This is Benny. He’s pretty helpful.
Benny is a needlefelted needle minder. He’s is stands at 2 in tall and can hold up to 8 needles without complaining.
Ha! No! These were not just made today. We wanted to do something happy and positive right now. And thought this would be a fun craftalong - to invite others to play? Maybe be inspired? (Or distracted?)
If you make one, you can put the Monster Jam sticker on your post!! We can all play!
(And yes, I think @Magpie is sharing both new and older projects.)
I for sure did not draft a paper piecing pattern and sew 2 cushions from it in a day, even I’m not that good!
Like last month’s mushrooms, I’m posting a combo of new and old projects. The ones at the last site seem lost to the ages which is so sad. I figured I would take the mod’s invitation to move them over here with all of us so they don’t get lonely.
Okay, I dug up a bunch of my old monster projects from Craftster and linked them over here! It’s fun to look back at old things I sent away for swaps; I’d totally forgotten about some of them!
Did I post these correctly? I’m not sure how to add the craftalong link back at the end of the post that some of you have been sharing with your monsters.
So first…these make me happy! I will comment individually, but just seeing these come back? I remember seeing them! And you inspired me to make my own! Gah! These are GREAT Monster Jams!
Okay, you do not have to, but here is how to add the sticker:
Download the 2020 Monster Jam sticker
Copy the url from this Monster Jam thread at top
Navigate to one of your new posts
Select edit (to edit the post)
Scroll to where you want the sticker
Drag and drop the sticker into place
Adjust the size to 150 x 150 (this is in the sticker formatting after it loads)
Type up some happy comments referring people to Monster Jam - have fun with it!
Highlight your happy Monster Jam text call to action (make sure not to delete!)
In the text tool box, the 5th icon should be 2 chain ‘links’, click that
A new modal will pop up. It will ask what url you want the words to link to. Click in the url box, and paste the Monster Jam crafting from step 2 above.
Select OK
Confirm you like what you made. Does the click take the user here? If no, go back and fix. If yes,
Save edited post. Pat yourself on the back! Ya done good!
Since you have multiple Jam posts, here are extra steps:
Now, highlight from the text to the monster jam image IN IT’S ENTIRETY, and copy.
Navigate to the next post
Edit
Scroll to where you want text and image
Paste the whole caboodle
Confirm you haven’t lost anything (text right, links work, etc)
Save edit
The link will have been added to the code, so you can just copy the whole piece to repaste in each of your Monster Jam posts!
Let me know if you have any questions!! I’m so excited you came hard to jam!! Dannnnggggg!!!
I’m loving your additions! My favorite is the mailbox monster. I remember loving that one when I first saw it on the other site too. Great things never go out of style.
