Monkey Marionette

The original monkey picture did not have eye lids or ears, but i decided that my monkey needed them. Inner ear in light wool and the outer ear in fur fabric. pipe cleaners to be used to enable the ear to curve.
Eye lids. fabric folded in half, sewn around, cut out and snipped on one side only to turn right sides out.
Pinned on the monkey. All to be hand stitched into place. I think that his face is a little less scary now.

  2. The eyelids make a huge difference Sue, he looks friendlier and less startled.
    The dreads are fantastic...
