In touch with both masculine and feminine side, this monkey is quite well adjusted and need not spend any hard earned dollars on the therapist's couch. I hand sewed this guy/gal using four pairs of socks.
Mr. Monkey is sporting a fez and vest made from felt in addition to an embroidered unibrow and mustache.
Ms. Monkey is adorned with gorgeous crocheted curls, embroidered eyelashes and a lovely beanie with a pompom. Oh, and she has cute little floral-shaped boobies! Yes, she's flat, but endowed nonetheless. I sewed a reversible skirt to separate the two monkey genders and Voila! A monkey sans identity crisis!

OMG i love monkeys.. not as much as giraffes but i love them !!!
ReplyDeleteMr. Monkey kind of reminds me of that guy from the Austin Powers movie...where Austin and Felicity trick the guy with the fez on his head to give up the location of Dr. Evil. LOL. Keep up the good work. ;-)
ReplyDeleteYou do rock!
ReplyDeleteMonkeys always make me think of that banquet scene in Indiana Jones. Again, your post has made me hungry...
ReplyDeleteI just figured her little flower boobies were pasties. Revealed of course by some "wardrobe malfunction" Great work as always. I'm so jealous.
ReplyDeleteyour monkeys rock!
ReplyDeleteyour monkeys rock!
ReplyDeleteThey are awesome. I must reclaim my monkey from years gone by. He/she is still living at my mothers. I am also inspired to make the kit I bought at Walmart. I hear it calling to be created and dressed up with crochet items. Love the flower boobies!
ReplyDeleteLove the monkeys! Monkeys always reminds me of that song from Aladdin...."He’s got the monkeys, let’s see the monkeys"! LOL! Great job once again!!
ReplyDeleteHey hey we're the MONKEYS..
ReplyDeleteThought of making a band???
Mike was my favorite.
Your monkeys are wonderful! That sparse, fringy mustache makes me cringe a little. So creepy-cool.

ReplyDeletethat's awesome regina!
ReplyDeleteI love your monkeys...they rock =)
ReplyDeleteI had a topsy turvy doll when I was a little girl........but it was....well. Let's just say that it wouldn't be considered PC nowadays. It was beautifully made tho, and I wish I still had it, as the person who made it was my great grandmother (yes she who picked up sailors).
ReplyDeletebtw: you're right, Drew came up with GREAT captions. lol
