Day 300 - Another robot post - Robot pants

Firstly, back on day 22 I made these pillow case trousers for Dylan and he has finally grown into them is wore them today to our big family gathering of cousins in Melbourne.

 Today he got another pair of pants. These are a lightweight corduroy and I drew a robot shape onto some red cord, cut it out and sewed it onto the bottom of one leg. I zig zag stitched a mouth and sewed two little beads on for eyes.

This is the one where Mum is making me sit down instead of running around.

Day 2 - Wonky Robot

Was feeling quite terrified and also exhilarated when I went to bed last night thinking about my 365 day challenge...Scared of running out of ideas and time but really excited about being creative and spontaneous. After completing my second challenge I feel energised.

This afternoon I decided to make this "Wonky Robot" top for my baby. He isn't perfect but I think he's cute and it was fun designing him and choosing materials.

Craft cupboard materials included scraps of fabric (including his head made from an old chenille blanket I picked up from hard garbage and have used to make about 6 pairs of kids pants), my gram's buttons and some stretchy tubing for his floppy arms and his neck.

And modelled here by the gorgeous man himself.
