End of August 2011, made granddaughter a sock monkey, she wanted another for her best friend Kelsie, then another for Kelsie's younger sister Chelsea. All three girls received their monkeys at the end of August, then requested clothes and a quilt. Here it is mid September all the requested clothes and quilts are ready for the girls to pick up this weekend. I hope they will be pleased - Nanna had no patterns and utilized fabrics from stash. Here are the party dresses, party jackets, summer blouses, pyjamas, sweaters, fleece jackets and pants - and all three quilts - meantime a Horned Owl has been stocking our teacup poodle, along with all the other pets in the RV Park - there are 2 skreeching Owls and 2 Horned Owls - we always have to be on guard - stressful vacation

You're the kind of Nana I want to be. Grandaughter on the way in Dec and I'm already working on doll clothes !

mmm, you just gave me a very good idea! I have the right stuff to make another sock monkey. I made a nice one for my grandson a few years ago. I love all you extra clothes. I have a little 3 yr old girl that visits with her mom now and then. I love the owl, we have them coming in at dusk by our big window. Awesome to watch.

Love the quilts too!

Little girls are going to be over the moon, with the best dressed sock monkeys ever! Wonderful job. You are a great grandmother and deserve a lot of kudos.

You are a wonderful grandma!!! The kids will love the outfits and quilts. Good going!!
And keep a close eye on your pup-dang birds. To think I used to college owls.

Those little girls are going to have a ball dressing and undressing those monkeys! You ARE going to be the best nana of all. And I'm a Nana, too, so I need to figure out how to do this for my 4 yo granddaughter!!

twinkie 09-13-2011 03:28 AM

What a great Nanna you are. I have 18 gc and my 5th ggc on the way. Do you want to help? LOL You did a great job.

dlinksews 09-13-2011 03:38 AM

Those are 3 very blessed little girls! They will never forget you and your loving gifts. Love comes disguised as a very well dressed sock monkey!

Jates 09-13-2011 03:51 AM

Oh my gosh!! They are going to LOOOOOVE them! I can't show this to my daughter- she got a sock monkey for Christmas last year and I made it a dress....a pitiful one compared to yours! They are awesome! Cool picture of the owl...as long as it stays away from your pooch!

Roxanne 09-13-2011 04:16 AM

I love to see that there are children who still relish the simple toys..and a nanna who provides fuel to feed the fire!

What a marvelous idea and I love them all. Makes me wish I had some little girls around here. My family hasn't had a little girl in over 36 years and we are fast running out of time for any during my lifetime.

wuv2quilt 09-13-2011 04:40 AM

What a sweet, sweet Nanna you are! Will you adopt me? lol I'm a hard working almost 45 year old...I will work for Sock Monkey and outfits. LOL :) Just tooo cute. :)

Fabaddict 09-13-2011 04:44 AM

sguillot 09-13-2011 05:04 AM

Lucky little girls, those are so cute.
